Recap by phillip woo

Hurry Hurry Up pinged to the front from gate 12, still had two lengths on the field upon straightening and just held off the late surge of favourite Imperial Concorde for an upset win despite a step up in trip. Imperial Concorde still had three behind him coming to the final bend but closed off furiously when weaving a run two-to-three off the rails to make it close on the wire. He'll be hard to beat if he can find a 1,800m race on this surface. Safari Magic settled one-out, one-back, rolled to second at the 800m and kept up a good gallop to hold a placing. Rock The Tree settle three deep second from the rear, cornered widest out after taking off at the 600m and stayed on well to fill a First-4 spot. He too is one that will improve over a longer trip. Win Along travelled third from the rear, swung the final bend with one wider out and ran on steadily without menacing. Dragon Glory travelled with cover in midfield, shifted out three deep coming to the final bend and kept plugging away without menacing. Well-fancied late, Crimson Heart parked second in the run, eased back to third near the inside upon straightening and was yielding ground 150m out. Go Go Win eased back to settle midfield along the paint after bouncing away nicely from gate three, and failed to respond under a hustling ride.

Racing Incident Report

Race Six: (034)-SHA KOK HANDICAP - Class 4 - 1650Metres

GLOBAL FAME was withdrawn on 23.9.14 by order of the Stewards acting on veterinary advice (lame left fore).

Before being allowed to race again, GLOBAL FAME will be subjected to an official veterinary examination.

SURE CHAMP began awkwardly, shifted out at the start and in doing so bumped the hindquarters of WIN ALONG which became unbalanced.

Passing the winning post on the first occasion, WIN ALONG momentarily raced tight inside DRAGON GLORY which was racing tight inside SAFARI MAGIC.

ROCK THE TREE was shifted across behind runners in the early stages.

After the 1200 Metres, SAFARI MAGIC commenced to travel keenly.

Near the 1100 Metres, SURE CHAMP got its head up when being checked away from the heels of IMPERIAL CONCORDE.

Approaching and passing the 800 Metres, CRIMSON HEART and SAFARI MAGIC raced tight as CRIMSON HEART attempted to shift out from behind HURRY HURRY UP.

IMPERIAL CONCORDE had difficulty obtaining clear running rounding the Home Turn and in the early part of the Straight.

SURE CHAMP was held up for clear running in the early part of the Straight.

When questioned, N Callan stated that having ridden GO GO WIN previously in its races, track work and in trials, he has formed the view that GO GO WIN performs best when able to race outside horses and he had previously discussed this with Mr P F Yiu, the trainer of GO GO WIN.

He said from barrier 2, he had been instructed to try and come away from the rail if possible and avoid being cluttered up by other horses.

He said after allowing HURRY HURRY UP to cross to the lead, he steadied GO GO WIN with a view to taking up the position behind CRIMSON HEART which initially raced to the outside of the hindquarters of HURRY HURRY UP which would have allowed GO GO WIN the opportunity to race in a one-off position.

He said he had hoped that SAFARI MAGIC, which was racing to his outside in a three wide position, would then press on which would allow GO GO WIN the opportunity to shift out further.

He said however that after the 1300 Metres when he obtained the position behind CRIMSON HEART, that horse was steadied by its rider and shifted in behind HURRY HURRY UP rather than remaining to the outside of that horse.

He said this allowed SAFARI MAGIC the opportunity to improve and race outside CRIMSON HEART which had the effect of placing GO GO WIN back on the rail.

He added rounding the Home Turn he attempted to shift GO GO WIN outside CRIMSON HEART, however, GO GO WIN was momentarily hampered at the 400 Metres when disappointed for running between that horse and HOLY MAC.

He said then in the Straight GO GO WIN did not finish off the race and, in his opinion, this confirmed his belief that GO GO WIN does not appreciate racing amongst other horses.

He said near the 50 Metres he was momentarily inconvenienced when CRIMSON HEART shifted in, however, this had no bearing on the horse's final finishing position.

A veterinary inspection of GO GO WIN immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.

A veterinary inspection of HOLY MAC immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.

HURRY HURRY UP and IMPERIAL CONCORDE were sent for sampling.
