Recap by phillip woo

Romantic Cash shadowed the leader Pearl Win, assumed the front 200m out and drew clear for a second straight win over this Valley trip and can strike again. Pearl Win cornered a half-length on top and kept up a good gallop off a feather weight to hold off Happy Meteor for second. Happy Meteor was a bit awkward while trying to switch out for a run in the drive following a box-seat run and kept on reasonably well with a clear path over the last 100m in an improved effort with blinkers. Golden Chopsticks closed nicely with three wider out from behind midfield to snatch a Quartet spot. It was a good run in defeat in a leader's race. Favourite Peace N Prosperity was caught a tad deep fore of midfield despite a good gate and was only one-paced with every chance over the last 100m. Da Vinci kept on evenly when asked for an effort following a midfield run. Imperial Rome came up flat following a rail's run worse than midfield. Plunged late, Kirov never fired a shot from the back.

Racing Incident Report

Race Eight: (147)-KWUN TONG HANDICAP (Sec1) - Class 3 - 1200Metres

AMAZING MOMENT began only fairly and from a wide barrier was shifted across behind runners in the early stages.

Also in the early stages, from wide barriers, KA YING KID and KIROV were shifted across behind runners to obtain cover.

Approaching the 800 Metres, DA VINCI got its head up when awkwardly placed close to the heels of ALL THE BEST.

Near the 800 Metres, KA YING KID was left racing wide and without cover.

Passing the 150 Metres, HAPPY METEOR got its head on the side, shifted in away from ROMANTIC CASH and bumped PEARL WIN, resulting in both horses becoming unbalanced.

Close to the finishing line, AMAZING MOMENT shifted out abruptly.

When questioned, Mr A T Millard, the trainer of PEARL WIN, stated that at its first run this season he had instructed K C Ng to obtain cover on the horse from barrier 9 given the makeup of the field that night and the fact that PEARL WIN had raced well when ridden with cover previously.

He added that in today's race he employed the services of a 10 lb claiming apprentice jockey which resulted in the horse being lightly weighted.

He said from a more favourable barrier and with added race fitness, he felt that there was an opportunity for PEARL WIN to race in a forward position given the makeup of the field in respect of the anticipated tempo of the race.

PEACE N PROSPERITY, ROMANTIC CASH and PEARL WIN were sent for sampling.
