Recap by phillip woo

Verdane was posted deep with cover in midfield from gate 14, swung the final bend with three wider out, hit the front 100m out and just held off the shade unlucky Turbo Jewellery for the win. Turbo Jewellery settled ahead of midfield and one off the rails, was held up briefly four deep behind the erratic Cartoon Fay Fay and finished well over the last 100m to make it close. Favourite Cartoon Fay Fay was effectively one-out, one-back in the run, advanced to the front 280m out and shifted about while giving ground under pressure. Winning Instinct travelled third from the rear and deep with cover, swung the final bend with one wider out and closed off reasonably well to grab a Quartet spot. Imperial Concorde was ridden patiently second from the rear, pushed widest out upon straightening and was making good progress late. Horse Aplenty was ridden hesitantly and was stopping 100m out. Axiom settled behind midfield and three deep with cover, swung the final bend six deep and kept plugging away without menacing.

Racing Incident Report

Race Eight: (494)-LOK FU HANDICAP - Class 3 - 1800Metres

SCIMITAR was withdrawn on 24.3.15 by order of the Stewards acting on veterinary advice (lame left fore) and was replaced by Standby Declared Starter VERDANE (D Whyte).

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

HAPPY JOURNEY began only fairly.

TURBO JEWELLERY got its head on the side and shifted out at the start, resulting in AXIOM being bumped and taken out onto FRANCE VALOUR which was crowded for room inside ROCK THE TREE.

From a wide barrier, CHARLIE VICTOR was slow to begin and was then shifted across behind runners in the early stages.

Despite being ridden along in the early stages, HORSE APLENTY was slow to muster speed.

Passing the winning post on the first occasion, CHARLIE VICTOR was awkwardly placed close to the heels of IMPERIAL CONCORDE.

Also passing the winning post on the first occasion, WINNING INSTINCT was steadied away from the heels of AXIOM.

Shortly after entering the Straight, VERDANE got its head on the side, lay in and bumped ROCK THE TREE which became unbalanced.

For the majority of the race, ROCK THE TREE travelled wide and without cover.

A veterinary inspection of FRANCE VALOUR and HAPPY JOURNEY immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.

CARTOON FAY FAY, VERDANE and TURBO JEWELLERY were sent for sampling.
