Recap by phillip woo

Gold Talent settled second from the rear from a wide gate, swung the final bend with one wider out and let down willingly 120m out for a first win at his 17th start. All My Benefit settled behind midfield along the rails, straightened three deep and ran on nicely to grab the runner-up spot 50m out. Optimization Star travelled fore of midfield, peeled off heels four deep at the 350m and ran on steadily to just grab third ahead of the fast finishing King Haradasun, who came with a move one from the outside after switching off third from the rear. Favourite Bright Concept came up flat in the final 100m after hitting the front 200 out following a lovely run one off the fence in fourth despite a drop in grade. Forest Colours made a steady bid three from the outside from behind midfield and three deep with cover.

Racing Incident Report

Race One: (176)-TO FUNG SHAN HANDICAP - Class 5 - 1600Metres

KING HARADASUN and GOLD TALENT bumped heavily at the start.

Both horses were then shifted across behind runners in the early stages.

Also from the outside barrier, HEAR THE ROAR was shifted across behind runners in the early stages.

Shortly after the start, LIBERAL OF MIND was crowded for room between OPTIMIZATION STAR and HAPPY KAISER which shifted in.

Approaching the 1000 Metres, LUCKY PIONEER was left racing wide and without cover.

HAPPY KAISER had some difficulty obtaining clear running approaching and passing the 200 Metres.

Near the 200 Metres, ALL MY BENEFIT and OPTIMIZATION STAR raced tight, resulting in ALL MY BENEFIT becoming unbalanced and becoming awkwardly placed outside the heels of BRIGHT CONCEPT passing the 200 Metres.

A veterinary inspection of HAPPY KAISER immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.

BRIGHT CONCEPT, GOLD TALENT and ALL MY BENEFIT were sent for sampling.
