Racing Incident Report
Race Nine: (448)-THE HONG KONG MACAU TROPHY (HANDICAP) - Hong Kong Group Three - 1400Metres
GREAT SPIRIT, Standby Declared Starter, was withdrawn on 7.3.15 by order of the Stewards acting on veterinary advice (swollen right fore fetlock).Before being allowed to race again, GREAT SPIRIT will be subjected to an official veterinary examination.
Whilst in the saddling stalls, EASY MONEY had its left hind plate refitted.
EASY MONEY was examined by the Veterinary Officer who said in his opinion it was suitable to race.
ALL YOU WISH and KING CREOLE began only fairly.
Despite being aggressively ridden along in the early stages, MULTIVICTORY failed to muster speed.
Near the 1000 Metres, SUPER LIFELINE was awkwardly placed close to the heels of WONDER MOSSMAN (H Lam) which shifted in when not properly clear.
H Lam was advised to exercise more care.
After the 1000 Metres, PIKACHU was awkwardly placed close to the heels of WINNING LEADER.
Making the first turn near the 900 Metres, SUPER LIFELINE (M Chadwick) shifted out away from the heels of WONDER MOSSMAN and bumped WONDERFUL MOMENTS which became unbalanced when taken wider.
M Chadwick was advised to ensure that he does not interfere with other runners when shifting ground.
Passing the 600 Metres, LUCKY AND WEALTHY was awkwardly placed close to the heels of MULTIVICTORY.
Rounding the Home Turn, SUPER LIFELINE became unbalanced when bumped by ARPINATI (J Moreira) which attempted to improve between SUPER LIFELINE and WONDER MOSSMAN where there was insufficient room.
After becoming unbalanced, SUPER LIFELINE shifted in and made further contact with ARPINATI.
After this, ARPINATI was awkwardly placed close to the heels of WONDER MOSSMAN for a short distance.
J Moreira was reprimanded and advised that he must exercise due care when attempting to improve his position.
Also rounding the Home Turn, WONDERFUL MOMENTS was brushed and taken wider by WINNING LEADER which shifted to the outside of SUPER LIFELINE into clear running.
PIKACHU was held up for clear running in the early part of the Straight and approaching the 350 Metres was shifted to the inside of SUPER LIFELINE.
ALL YOU WISH, which was following PIKACHU, was steadied away from the heels of that horse in consequence.
Near the 350 Metres, MASTER OF PUPPETS was held up behind EASY MONEY which was giving ground.
MASTER OF PUPPETS was then shifted to the outside of EASY MONEY passing the 300 Metres.
Throughout the race, WONDERFUL MOMENTS travelled wide and without cover and in the Straight gave ground.
When questioned, D Whyte stated that whilst ALL YOU WISH was somewhat disappointing in today's race, he was not able to shift to the outside of runners in the Straight due to ALL YOU WISH having KABAYAN racing to its outside.
He said in the past ALL YOU WISH had performed best when able to make its run outside of runners in the Straight.
A veterinary inspection of ALL YOU WISH immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.
A veterinary inspection of WONDERFUL MOMENTS immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.
ARPINATI and PIKACHU were sent for sampling.
Recap by phillip woo
Odds-on favourite Arpinati settled fore of midfield along the rails, was kept in a pocket behind the tiring leaders upon straightening by Super Lifeline, got the gap 300m out, hit the front 200m out and just held off the late surges of Pikachu and outsider Gurus Dream for a bob of heads win. Pikachu made his run behind midfield along the rails, was held up behind runner five deep upon straightening, shifted inside off heels at the 250m and finished nicely to make it close off a light weight despite a step up in class. Gurus Dream was ridden for luck second from the rear from an outside gate, swung the final bend widest out and finished full of run to make it a thriller. He was suited by the tempo. Super Lifeline settled fourth and one off the rails, briefly hit the front four deep at the 300m and grudgingly gave way to finish level for fourth. Multivictory was never on the course behind midfield from a wide gate, straightened two from the right and finished off well. Kabayan steadily to just finish out of a Quartet spot.
