Recap by phillip woo

Fiery Patrol was prominent along the rails, stayed to the inside upon straightening and ran down leader Shantaraam close to home for the win. Late-plunged favourite Shantaraam rolled forward to lead entering the first bend, cornered near two lengths on top and grudgingly gave way late. Croatia was patiently ridden at the rear, cornered near the inside and finished to garner a placing 100m out. Cruise Control eased back from the widest gate to settle second from the rear, swung the final bend with one wider out and made some progress late to snatch fourth on the wire. All My Benefit yielded ground inside the 150m after having to work without cover from an awkward gate to eventually sit outside the leader at the 1,200m. Early favourite Hear The Roar was briefly held up three to four deep early straight after travelling behind midfield and only held his ground with clear running over the final 150m. Commandant was never on the course near the speed and was giving way 200m out. Viva Guy was struggling approaching the final bend following a deep run with cover fourth from the rear.

Racing Incident Report

Race One: (011)-STANLEY HANDICAP - Class 5 - 1650Metres

CROATIA and COMMANDANT bumped at the start.

Passing the 1500 Metres, CROATIA was crowded for room between HEAR THE ROAR and CRUISE CONTROL which shifted in abruptly when awkwardly placed close to the heels of EASY AHEAD.

After the 1200 Metres, COMMANDANT was left racing wide and without cover.

For some distance after the 900 Metres, EASY AHEAD and VIVA GUY raced tight and bumped on a number of occasions as EASY AHEAD shifted to the outside of EAGLE KING.

HEAR THE ROAR was momentarily held up for clear running in the early part of the Straight and then had difficulty obtaining clear running between EAGLE KING and COMMANDANT passing the 300 Metres.

After the race, J Moreira (SHANTARAAM) reported that his saddle shifted back slightly shortly after the start.

A veterinary inspection of COMMANDANT and VIVA GUY immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.

A veterinary inspection of HEAR THE ROAR immediately following the race including an endoscopic examination showed a substantial amount of blood in the horse's trachea.

Before being allowed to race again, HEAR THE ROAR will be subjected to an official veterinary examination.

FIERY PATROL and SHANTARAAM were sent for sampling.
