Recap by phillip woo

Early favourite Crimson Heart settled one off the fence fore of midfield, rounded the final bend five deep, swept to the front 250m out and kept finding to open his win account at his 25th start. Super Silks was quietly ridden three deep with cover third from the rear, swung the final bend widest out and finished soundly to grab second in his season debut. He'll come on for the run and will be winning shortly on this surface if he can stay in this grade. Safari Magic settled deep with cover beyond midfield, rounded the final bend four from the right and stayed on well for a placing. Commandant sat on the back of a slow pace along the fence, bumped a tiring Super King Star while pulling out three deep at the 250m and kept on one-paced over the last 100m as the post-time favourite. Gold Tartini kept grinding away without menacing after switching off heels five deep at the 250m following a midfield trip. Mizzen Grey travelled fourth from the rear, pulled into the open with one wider out at the 250m and made some progress without threatening. Lucky Bole never fired a shot.

Racing Incident Report

Race One: (180)-BATTERY PATH HANDICAP - Class 5 - 1650Metres

TRIBAL GLORY, which was very fractious in the barriers, initially reared and then stood flat-footed as the start was effected, resulting in the horse losing a significant amount of ground.

The barrier manners of TRIBAL GLORY, which then finished tailed out, were considered unacceptable.

Before being allowed to race again, TRIBAL GLORY will be required to perform to the satisfaction of the Stewards in a barrier trial and be subject to an official veterinary examination.

Shortly after the start, SUPER KING STAR and PROPEL REPEL raced tight.

From wide barriers, CRUISE CONTROL and HAPPY FRIENDSHIP were shifted across behind runners in the early stages.

Despite being ridden along in the early stages, LUCKY BOLE, SAFARI MAGIC and MIZZEN GREY failed to muster speed.

Passing the winning post on the first occasion, SUPER SILKS was shifted in across behind runners after being left racing wide.

After passing the winning post on the first occasion, PROPEL REPEL got its head up and became unbalanced when being steadied to obtain a position behind SUPER KING STAR and awkwardly placed outside the heels of that horse.

For some distance approaching and passing the 1300 Metres, LUCKY BOLE was awkwardly placed close to the heels of CRIMSON HEART which was steadied to allow SUPER KING STAR to cross.

Passing the 1200 Metres, SUPER KING STAR got its head up on a number of occasions when proving difficult to settle.

CULTURAL CITY travelled wide and without cover until near the 700 Metres.

Near the 450 Metres, MIZZEN GREY was shifted out away from the heels of BE THERE AHEAD.

At the 400 Metres, LUCKY BOLE momentarily raced in restricted room between BE THERE AHEAD and GOLD TARTINI which was shifted to the outside of COMMANDANT.

Approaching the 300 Metres, SUPER KING STAR raced tight between CRIMSON HEART which initially shifted in and COMMANDANT which was shifted to the outside of CULTURAL CITY to obtain clear running.

Near the 250 Metres, GOLD TARTINI was hampered by SUPER KING STAR which shifted out.

Throughout the race, BE THERE AHEAD travelled wide and without cover.

The performance of PROPEL REPEL, which finished tailed out, was considered unacceptable.

Before being allowed to race again, PROPEL REPEL will be required to perform to the satisfaction of the Stewards in a barrier trial and be subjected to an official veterinary examination.

A veterinary inspection of SUPER KING STAR immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.

A veterinary inspection of CULTURAL CITY immediately following the race did not show any significant findings, however, the horse was unable to be scoped due to being fractious.

COMMANDANT, CRIMSON HEART and SUPER SILKS were sent for sampling.
