Racing Incident Report
Race Seven: (687)-LAI KOK HANDICAP - Class 3 - 1650Metres
KERKENI began only fairly, shifted out and bumped the hindquarters of TRIUMPHANT LIGHT which shifted in, resulting in both horses becoming unbalanced.STRONG FOUNDATION was slow to begin.
From wide barriers, SUPEROI and BEST TANGO were shifted across behind runners in the early stages.
Approaching the winning post on the first occasion, TRIUMPHANT LIGHT commenced to travel keenly and momentarily raced in restricted room between KERKENI and HORSE OF FORTUNE which shifted in marginally when racing tight inside JOLLY GENE.
D Lane (GOLDEN ADDICTION) pleaded guilty to a charge of careless riding [Rule 100(1)] in that passing the winning post on the first occasion he permitted his mount to shift in when not clear of FORGIVE AND FORGET, causing that horse to be checked and to lose the running to which it was rightfully entitled.
D Lane was suspended from riding in races for a period to expire on Thursday, 25 June 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 Sunday, 14 June 2015.
Making the turn near the 950 Metres, TRIUMPHANT LIGHT shifted out and bumped BEST TANGO.
For some distance approaching and passing the 700 Metres, SPEEDY LONGWAH and SUPREME ESSENCE raced tight as SPEEDY LONGWAH attempted to shift out from behind CHOICE TREASURE and inside SUPREME ESSENCE.
Rounding the Home Turn, STRONG FOUNDATION raced in restricted room between TRIUMPHANT LIGHT and KERKENI which was awkwardly placed close to the heels of SPEEDY LONGWAH.
Close to the finishing line, Y T Cheng (STRONG FOUNDATION) dropped his whip.
TRIUMPHANT LIGHT lost its left front plate after passing the winning post.
Throughout the race, JOLLY GENE travelled wide and without cover and in the Straight gave ground.
A veterinary inspection of BEST TANGO immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.
A veterinary inspection of FORGIVE AND FORGET immediately following the race revealed the horse to be lame in its left front leg.
Before being allowed to race again, FORGIVE AND FORGET will be subjected to an official veterinary examination.
HORSE OF FORTUNE and SPEEDY LONGWAH were sent for sampling.
Recap by phillip woo
Horse Of Fortune was one off the fence beyond midfield in the run, eased out five deep upon straightening and finished willingly to take control inside the 100m for a first win at his seventh start. Speedy Longwah sat one off after handing up the lead to Choice Treasure at the 1,000m, came one off when straightening and got the better of Supreme Essence over the final 100m for second. Supreme Essence settled three deep without cover in third, moved to second 600m out, poked his head in front at the 150m and grudgingly gave way. Strong Foundation travelled behind midfield along the rails, pulled off runners five deep at the 150m and finished well. Choice Treasure cleared to the front 1,000m out from a tricky gate, straightened nearly a length on top and was stopping 100m out. Superoi was posted deep near the back from a wide gate, swung the final bend with one wider out and ran on reasonably well. Triumphant Light eased back to travel behind midfield and one off the rails, straightened five deep and came up one-paced over the final 150m. Best Tango travelled deep behind midfield, took closer order without cover coming to the final bend and was only plodding over the final 200m.
