Recap by phillip woo

Evergreen Easy Ahead settled three deep third from the rear from a wide gate, swung the final bend widest out and quickened willingly to get up in the final few metres for a third win from 70 starts. Well-punted late, Oriental Fantasia advanced to the front 350m out after punching the breeze outside the leader Hurry Hurry Up but found one too good on the day. Respect was prominent without cover the entire trip, moved to second 200m out and kept grinding away to hold in an improved run with a drop in grade and return to the dirt. Intellectual Glide straightened three deep after travelling second from the rear, eased out further for a clear run approaching the 100m and finished well thereafter to fill a Quartet spot. Highland Dragon stayed on reasonably well after three deep run with cover behind midfield from a wide gate. Danewin Tiger, who had to be resaddled at the start, made ground near the outside after being detached for the most part following a tardy break. Early favourite Super King Star was only plodding when steadied close to home following a rails run in midfield.

Racing Incident Report

Race One: (508)-CINERARIA HANDICAP - Class 5 - 1200Metres

On arrival at the Start, it was noted that the ring bit fitted to DANEWIN TIGER had broken.

This required the bridle being replaced, resulting in a considerable delay to the start of the race.

After the race, the Stewards inspected the relevant piece of equipment and were satisfied that it was in overall good condition.

DANEWIN TIGER was slow to begin.

HIGHLAND DRAGON began awkwardly and then travelled wide and without cover throughout the race.

INTELLECTUAL GLIDE shifted out at the start and bumped the hindquarters of MAGICAL BEAM which became unbalanced.

Approaching the 900 Metres, NOVEL START shifted in towards the running rail and became unbalanced of its own accord.

Passing the 800 Metres, MIGHTY GAINS and RESPECT, which throughout the race travelled wide and without cover, raced tight.

Near the 250 Metres, INTELLECTUAL GLIDE was shifted in away from the heels of SUPER KING STAR.

After the 100 Metres, SUPER KING STAR raced tight outside INTELLECTUAL GLIDE (M L Yeung) which improved into tight running between SUPER KING STAR and RESPECT.

Then near the 50 Metres, SUPER KING STAR was checked when crowded for room between HIGHLAND DRAGON which shifted in marginally and INTELLECTUAL GLIDE which was taken out slightly by RESPECT.

M L Yeung was advised to ensure that he exercises due care when improving into tight running in similar circumstances.

When questioned regarding the disappointing performance of HURRY HURRY UP, N Callan stated that after having to make some use of the horse in the early stages to obtain the rail after beginning well, he was then able to ease the tempo on HURRY HURRY UP and the horse travelled comfortably in the lead.

He said when ORIENTAL FANTASIA improved to the outside of HURRY HURRY UP passing the 450 Metres, HURRY HURRY UP did not quicken as he expected it would and then was disappointing in its failure to finish off the race as strongly as anticipated.

A veterinary inspection of HURRY HURRY UP immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.

A veterinary inspection of MIGHTY GAINS immediately following the race revealed the horse to have sustained minor cuts to both hind cannons.

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

HURRY HURRY UP, EASY AHEAD and ORIENTAL FANTASIA were sent for sampling.
