Recap by phillip woo

Favourite Lovely Delovely settled two off the stands side in second from a middle gate, worked to the front 400m out and drew clear for a second win from three course-and-distance runs this term. Lucky Celebrity was ridden patiently second from the rear from a tough gate, switched out sharply for a clear run on the far side at the 250m and finished willingly to grab Fantastico close to home for second. He'll be winning races shortly. Fantastico travelled midfield one from the far side, worked to second under the whip at the 200m and was shade late for the Quinella spot. Hong Kong Dancer improved his position while shifting underneath runners from behind midfield at the 300m, switched further out from a wandering Fantastico at the 150m and came up one-paced soon after. Free November ran on reasonably well.

Racing Incident Report

Race Nine: (221)-MODY HANDICAP - Class 3 - 1000Metres

BEYOND FANTASY was checked and NO MONEY NO TALK hampered on jumping when crowded for room between SUPER ABUNDANTE and SMART DECLARATION which began awkwardly and shifted in despite the efforts of its rider.

WORLD CITY shifted in at the start and hampered HONG KONG DANCER and IMPERIAL FIGHTER.

LUCKY CELEBRITY and FREE NOVEMBER were shifted across behind runners in the early stages.

Near the 700 Metres, FREE NOVEMBER was very awkwardly placed close to the heels of SMART DECLARATION, shifted out and bumped NO MONEY NO TALK.

Passing the 300 Metres, LUCKY CELEBRITY was held up for clear running and shifted to the inside of SMART DECLARATION to improve.

HONG KONG DANCER was held up for a run for some distance approaching the 200 Metres at which time the horse was shifted to the inside of FANTASTICO to obtain clear running.

When HONG KONG DANCER shifted in, SMART DECLARATION momentarily raced in restricted room between that horse and LUCKY CELEBRITY.

In this incident, SMART DECLARATION made contact with the hindquarters of LUCKY CELEBRITY which became unbalanced.

Near the 200 Metres, DANE PATROL was momentarily steadied away from the heels of LOVELY DELOVELY (N Callan) which shifted out.

N Callan was severely reprimanded and advised to ensure that he is properly clear when shifting ground in similar circumstances.

Near the 200 Metres and again over the concluding stages, FREE NOVEMBER had difficulty obtaining clear running.

WORLD CITY was unable to obtain clear running from near the 200 Metres until the concluding stages and consequently was not able to be properly tested.

NO MONEY NO TALK was held up for clear running approaching and passing the 200 Metres.

NO MONEY NO TALK was then unable to obtain clear running over the concluding stages and consequently was not able to be ridden out all the way to the end of the race.

Near the 150 Metres, IMPERIAL FIGHTER was checked and NO MONEY NO TALK was hampered when both attempting to improve into running between DANE PATROL and KING OF HOUSEHOLD where there was insufficient room for two horses.

IMPERIAL FIGHTER was subsequently held up for clear running and was unable to be tested as a consequence.

A Suborics (FANTASTICO) pleaded guilty to a charge of careless riding [Rule 100(1)] in that near the 100 Metres he permitted his mount to shift out when not clear of SUPER ABUNDANTE, causing that horse to be badly hampered and taken out onto KING OF HOUSEHOLD which in turn was crowded onto NO MONEY NO TALK, resulting in both horses also being hampered.

A Suborics was suspended from riding in races for a period to expire on Monday, 5 January 2015 on which day he may resume race riding (3 Hong Kong racedays).

The commencement of the suspension was deferred until after the Sha Tin racemeeting on Saturday, 20 December 2014.

A veterinary inspection of IMPERIAL FIGHTER immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.

A veterinary inspection of WORLD CITY immediately following the race revealed the horse to be lame in its left front leg.

Before being allowed to race again, WORLD CITY will be subjected to an official veterinary examination.

LOVELY DELOVELY and LUCKY CELEBRITY were sent for sampling.
