Recap by phillip woo

Cool Pal rushed forward out deep after missing the kick to eventually land a one-off spot in second behind Just Pleasant at the 1,300m, advanced to the front 600m out and kept up a strong gallop to land a betting plunge in his first test over a route. Enjoy The Game enjoyed a lovely run in the box-seat, worked to second approaching the 200m and just held off King Bountiful in a vastly-improved run. King Bountiful eased back to travel three back along the fence, angled out coming to the final bend and stayed on nicely five deep. Successful Leader made his run behind midfield along the fence, eased out coming to the final bend and ran on reasonably well with two wider out to complete a rough Quartet. Smart Buy was making good ground widest out from the rear of the field. Favourite Glamorous Ryder didn't find much after cornering four deep following a rails run behind King Bountiful. High Speed Metro made a mild bid after shifting into the open with three wider out at the 300m following a one-off run from behind midfield. Glorious Victory was struggling 150m out after having to work to eventually land a oneout, one-back spot. Gold Tartini made some ground near the inside.

Racing Incident Report

Race Three: (379)-YUE MAN HANDICAP - Class 5 - 2000Metres

COOL PAL began very awkwardly and lost ground.

STRIKE EAGLE became fractious as the start was effected and was slow to begin.

GOLD TARTINI was crowded for room on jumping between KEEN TACTICS and GLAMOROUS RYDER which shifted out.

From a wide barrier, SWEET BEAN was steadied in the early stages and shifted across behind runners.

Approaching the winning post on the first occasion, HIGH SPEED METRO was momentarily crowded for room between SUCCESSFUL LEADER and SPICY SIAM which got its head on the side and shifted in away from KING BOUNTIFUL which was shifting in.

When SPICY SIAM was shifted out to relieve the tightening to HIGH SPEED METRO, GOLD TARTINI, which was racing to the outside of that horse, clipped the heels of SPICY SIAM and blundered badly, resulting in its rider, B Prebble, becoming badly unbalanced.

SMART GUY, which was following, was checked away from the heels of GOLD TARTINI in consequence.

Whilst this incident was one of some significance, the Stewards were of the opinion that it occurred as a result of a number of circumstances, none of which were related to rider error and accordingly no further action was taken.

After this, HIGH SPEED METRO travelled keenly and was awkwardly placed close to the heels of SUCCESSFUL LEADER passing the winning post on the first occasion.

When awkwardly placed close to the heels of SUCCESSFUL LEADER, HIGH SPEED METRO then shifted out and bumped SPICY SIAM which was crowded for room inside KEEN TACTICS which got its head on the side and shifted in away from GLORIOUS VICTORY.

Approaching the 1800 Metres, STRIKE EAGLE was steadied away from the heels of SUCCESSFUL LEADER.

Approaching the 300 Metres, KEEN TACTICS was momentarily crowded for room between SUCCESSFUL LEADER and HIGH SPEED METRO (Z Purton) which shifted out to obtain clear running.

Z Purton was advised to exercise more care.

A veterinary inspection of SPICY SIAM, SWEET BEAN and GLAMOROUS RYDER immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.

A veterinary inspection of STRIKE EAGLE immediately following the race including an endoscopic examination showed a substantial amount of mucus in the horse's trachea.

GLAMOROUS RYDER, COOL PAL and ENJOY THE GAME were sent for sampling.
