Recap by phillip woo

Apollo Cavalier pinged the start, cornered a half-length on top, extended his margin mid-straight and kept on strongly for the win. Choice Treasure made his run third from the rear, moved to midfield coming to the final bend, shifted five deep at the 250m and finished willingly to take second. He remains one to follow over this Valley trip. Punted late, Grimmy settled fourth along the rails, straightened near the inside and wore down Naughty Baby in the final few strides for a placing. Naughty Baby peaked on his run 50m out after working to second at the 100m following a rail's run in midfield. Windicator Star made some ground down the outside without menacing from behind midfield. Great Storm was always well back in the run and did make up considerable ground late. He's likely looking for a longer trip. Regency Ho Ho travelled without cover the entire trip in third and came up one-paced over the final 200m. Punted late to jump favourite, The Prince was yielding ground approaching the 150m after sitting outside the eventual winner in the run. Scimitar badly missed the kick and was never involved.

Racing Incident Report

Race Eight: (110)-WAH FU HANDICAP - Class 3 - 1200Metres

Just prior to the start being effected, SCIMITAR put its head down and when the gates were released stood flat-footed, resulting in the horse losing a significant amount of ground.

Before being allowed to race again, SCIMITAR will be required to perform satisfactorily in an official barrier trial.

Rounding the Home Turn, HEROIC GURU became unbalanced and shifted out after being awkwardly placed close to the heels of SNITZEL KID.

Passing the 300 Metres and again passing the 200 Metres, NAUGHTY BABY raced tight inside GRIMMY which shifted in.

Near the 150 Metres, WINDICATOR STAR shifted in under pressure, resulting in its rider having to stop riding and straighten his mount.

Throughout the race, REGENCY HO HO travelled wide and without cover.

After the race, C Y Ho stated that THE PRINCE did not handle tonight"s track conditions and this accounted for the horse"s disappointing performance.

A veterinary inspection of THE PRINCE immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.

THE PRINCE, APOLLO CAVALIER and CHOICE TREASURE were sent for sampling.


GENERAL:

1.

After the running of Race 7, the track classification was officially changed from "Good" to "Good to Yielding".

This change in the opinion of the Stewards should be recorded as being retrospective.

As a consequence of this, the official results will show Race 7 being run on a track rated "Good to Yielding".
