Recap by phillip woo

Perfect Triumph settled fourth along the rails, straightened five deep and ran on nicely to take control 50m out for a third victory this season. Late-fancied favourite Safari Magic had to work to establish the lead, straightened nearly two lengths on top after setting a good tempo and kept on gamely to hold Viva Guy for second. Viva Guy saved ground third from the rear, turned the final bend nearly three deep and finished well to make it close for the Quinella. Let's Goal ran on steadily near the inside for a Quartet spot after a rail's run in midfield. Zachary was caught without cover around midfield from a wide gate, charged forward to sit outside the leader at the 800m, straightened four deep and peaked on his run 100m out. Tai Po Fortune got going late after travelling second from the rear to finish level for fifth. Southchina Command sat one off in second, dropped into a one-out, one-back spot at the 800m, swung the final bend with three wider out and kept on evenly over the final 100m. No Ties got by beaten rivals after travelling at the tail of the field from a wide gate. Better Announce jumped sluggishly, rushed forward 1,000m out to sit three deep without cover at the 500m, cornered with one wider out and gave way over the final 200m. He had excuses.

Racing Incident Report

Race Two: (682)-UN CHAU HANDICAP - Class 5 - 1650Metres

After being loaded, LET'S GOAL became fractious, reared and momentarily sat down, resulting in its rider, D Whyte, being dislodged.

LET'S GOAL was removed from the barriers and examined by the Veterinary Officer who said in his opinion it was suitable to race.

D Whyte was found suitable to fulfil his riding engagement.

Before being allowed to race again, LET'S GOAL will be required to perform satisfactorily in a stalls test.

Shortly after the start, BETTER ANNOUNCE was steadied when crowded for room between ZACHARY and TAI PO FORTUNE which was taken out by EVER SHINY which in turn was taken out by DIAMOND ANGEL which began awkwardly.

After this, both BETTER ANNOUNCE and TAI PO FORTUNE were taken across behind runners in the early stages.

From the outside barrier, NO TIES was shifted across behind runners shortly after the start.

After travelling a short distance, VIVA GUY was awkwardly placed outside the heels of PERFECT TRIUMPH which shifted out.

Approaching the 1200 Metres, ZACHARY was left racing wide and without cover and after the 900 Metres was allowed to improve its position to race outside the leader SAFARI MAGIC near the 700 Metres.

For some distance approaching and passing the 1100 Metres, EVER SHINY proved very difficult to settle and got its head up on a number of occasions when awkwardly placed close to the heels of AMERICAN FAME.

After the 1100 Metres, DIAMOND ANGEL commenced to over-race and was awkwardly placed close to the heels of SOUTHCHINA COMMAND.

Near the 700 Metres, BETTER ANNOUNCE was left racing wide and without cover.

Rounding the Home Turn, SOUTHCHINA COMMAND and PERFECT TRIUMPH raced tight as PERFECT TRIUMPH shifted to the outside of ZACHARY into clear running.

After the 150 Metres, SAFARI MAGIC shifted out under pressure.

A veterinary inspection of SOUTHCHINA COMMAND immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.

PERFECT TRIUMPH and SAFARI MAGIC were sent for sampling.
