Racing Incident Report
Race Two: (292)-YI TUNG SHAN HANDICAP - Class 5 - 1800Metres
On arrival at the Start, G Benoist expressed concern regarding the action of FRESH AND FRESH.FRESH AND FRESH was examined by the Veterinary Officer and passed suitable to race.
GOLD TARTINI began awkwardly and then bumped heavily with MY CUP OVERFLOWS.
GOLD TARTINI then shifted out after becoming badly unbalanced and bumped the hindquarters of TELECOM PRINCE.
A short distance later, GOLD TARTINI was checked when crowded for room between TELECOM PRINCE and MY CUP OVERFLOWS which was taken out by HIGH SPEED METRO which in turn was taken out by FRESH AND FRESH.
After this, GOLD TARTINI was shifted across behind runners from a wide barrier.
Approaching the 500 Metres, GOLD TARTINI raced tight between WINSOME SMILE and TELECOM PRINCE which shifted out.
Z Purton (HIGH SPEED METRO) pleaded guilty to a charge of careless riding [Rule 100(1)] in that passing the 500 Metres he permitted his mount to shift out when not clear of TELECOM PRINCE, causing that horse to be unnecessarily crowded for room and to lose the running to which it was rightfully entitled.
Z Purton was suspended from riding in races for a period to expire on Thursday, 21 January 2016 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 Saturday, 9 January 2016.
GLORIOUS VICTORY was held up for clear running in the early part of the Straight.
At the 200 Metres, SPICY SIAM was shifted out away from the heels of MIGHTY WONGCHOY which was giving ground.
Approaching the 50 Metres, both RUGBY AMBASSADOR and MY CUP OVERFLOWS were steadied when momentarily crowded for room between SWEET BEAN and ENCHANTING DIAMOND, both of which shifted ground.
Close to the finishing line, HIGH SPEED METRO was awkwardly placed outside the heels of GLORIOUS VICTORY.
A veterinary inspection of MIGHTY WONGCHOY immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.
FOREST COLOURS and SWEET BEAN were sent for sampling.
Recap by phillip woo
Firming favourite Forest Colours went forward from a wide gate to eventually settle one off in second behind Fresh And Fresh, assumed the front 350m out and kept up a good gallop to open his win account at start 20 with a rise in trip. He can win another in this grade. Sweet Bean closed off nicely near the inside after travelling five back along the fence to run down Enchanting Diamond close to home for second. Enchanting Diamond travelled one off the fence beyond midfield, looked a fleeting chance five deep at the 150m and came up flat inside the final 100m in his first try over the distance. He's one to keep safe over the Sha Tin mile. My Cup Overflows was half-carting in fourth from a wide gate, straightened four deep and kept on reasonably well to inject value into the Quartet with a rise in trip. Rugby Ambassador enjoyed a lovely run in the box-seat and was only plodded over the last 150m.
