Recap by phillip woo

Victorius settled fore of midfield and one off the rails, rounded the final bend with two wider out and rattled home to grab victory 20m out. Precision King rolled forward to lead comfortably at the 1,000m from gate seventh, straightened near three lengths clear and found the winner too good. All Great Friends was pulling hard in second, straightened three deep and kept grinding away to finish a clear third. Favourite Dining World settled behind midfield and one off the rails, swung the final bend with one wider out and ran on steadily to grab fourth in the final few metres. Tango Fire was badly checked back to fourth at the 850m, straightened three-to-four deep and came up one-paced under vigorous riding over the final 200m. Cour Valant travelled fifth from the back and made some ground late near the inside without ever menacing. Great Sky only held his ground in the drive following a rail's run in midfield.

Racing Incident Report

Race Five: (351)-GRASS ISLAND HANDICAP - Class 3 - 1200Metres

VICTORIUS and ALL GREAT FRIENDS bumped heavily at the start.

Shortly after the start, DINING WORLD was crowded for room between PRECISION KING and COUR VALANT which was taken out by ALL GREAT FRIENDS which in turn was taken out by VICTORIUS.

From wide barriers, MIDNITE PROMISE, CONFUCIUS SPIRIT and JAZZY FEELING were all shifted across behind runners in the early stages.

Making the first turn after the 1100 Metres, COUR VALANT got its head on the side and shifted out and consequently raced tight inside DINING WORLD.

After the 1000 Metres, TANGO FIRE got its head up and shifted out towards the heels of ALL GREAT FRIENDS.

Near the 850 Metres, TANGO FIRE was checked when crowded for room inside ALL GREAT FRIENDS (D Whyte) which shifted in momentarily when proving very difficult to settle and getting its head up.

When checked, TANGO FIRE also got its head up and shifted out across the heels of ALL GREAT FRIENDS, resulting in GREAT SKY being checked in consequence.

D Whyte was advised that the Stewards accepted that his mount's racing manners had caused this incident and accordingly no further action was taken.

Rounding the Home Turn, COUR VALANT was awkwardly placed close to the heels of GREAT SKY.

Then passing the 250 Metres, COUR VALANT raced tight inside GREAT SKY which shifted in.

Passing the 100 Metres, COUR VALANT and GREAT SKY again raced tight.

DINING WORLD, VICTORIUS and PRECISION KING were sent for sampling.
