Recap by phillip woo

Expedite dropped to the fence fifth from the rear from a wide gate 800m out, eased into the open six deep upon straightening and finished well to wear down favourite Ho Lee Horse in the shadows of the post for a second straight win. Ho Lee Horse couldn't hold off the winner after bursting to the front following a pace-stalking run behind the lateplunged Prompt Express at the 400m. Diamond Friends was asked to make ground travelling third from the rear at the 600m, swung the final bend with two wider out and finished nicely to grab a placing. Buddy Buddies closed off willingly with one wider out after making his run third from the rear. Spinning Dancer settled three back and one off the fence, straightened four deep and kept grinding away without menacing. Happy Moments settled behind midfield along the fence a position ahead of Expedite, stayed near the inside upon straightening and kept on evenly after nearly coming down when clipping the heels of the tiring Prompt Express approaching the 300m. Yourthewonforme struggled in the straight run after a deep run travelling worse than midfield. Plunged late, Prompt Express was stopping 350m out after dictating the run.

Racing Incident Report

Race Four: (540)-DEEP BAY HANDICAP - Class 4 - 1650Metres

CHEERFUL FRAME stumbled at the start.

From a wide barrier, BUDDY BUDDIES was shifted across behind runners shortly after the start.

Despite being ridden along in the early stages, DASHING SUPER failed to muster speed and then travelled wide and without cover until passing the 900 Metres.

STRIKING STAR was crowded for room on jumping between HAPPY MOMENTS and PROMPT EXPRESS which shifted in.

STRIKING STAR then raced in restricted room between PROMPT EXPRESS and HAPPY MOMENTS which in turn raced tight outside GREAT TOPLIGHT which was taken out by HO LEE HORSE.

Then approaching the winning post on the first occasion, STRIKING STAR blundered when continuing to race tight inside PROMPT EXPRESS.

Making the first turn after passing the winning post on the first occasion, SLEDGE HAMMER and SPINNING DANCER bumped due to both horses shifting marginal ground.

Near the 1500 Metres, STRIKING STAR was steadied when crowded for room between YOURTHEWONFORME which lay in and GREAT TOPLIGHT which shifted out marginally.

HAPPY MOMENTS, which was following, was steadied away from the heels of STRIKING STAR in consequence.

For some distance after the 1400 Metres, STRIKING STAR proved very difficult to settle and got its head up on a number of occasions when awkwardly placed close to the heels of SPINNING DANCER.

Near the 1100 Metres, STRIKING STAR shifted in when being checked away from the heels of SPINNING DANCER, resulting in HAPPY MOMENTS being crowded for room.

After this, STRIKING STAR continued to race keenly.

Approaching the 1000 Metres, YOURTHEWONFORME was left racing wide and without cover.

Making the turn near the 700 Metres, EXPEDITE brushed the running rail.

Passing the 500 Metres, EXPEDITE was steadied when awkwardly placed behind FLYING MACHINE and SPINNING DANCER.

At the entrance to the Straight, HAPPY MOMENTS blundered after striking the heels of PROMPT EXPRESS which was weakening.

A veterinary inspection of PROMPT EXPRESS immediately following the race found that horse to have sustained wounds to the back of the right hock.

At the 400 Metres, YOURTHEWONFORME was crowded for room between DIAMOND FRIENDS and EXPEDITE (N Rawiller) which shifted out to obtain clear running.

N Rawiller was reprimanded and advised to exercise more care when shifting ground in similar circumstances.

T H So (CHEERFUL FRAME) stated that the horse never travelled on the bridle at any stage of the race despite being ridden along for the majority of the race.

A veterinary inspection of CHEERFUL FRAME immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.

The performance of CHEERFUL FRAME together with that of DASHING SUPER, PROMPT EXPRESS and SLEDGE HAMMER, all of which finished tailed out, was considered unacceptable.

Before being allowed to race again, CHEERFUL FRAME, DASHING SUPER, PROMPT EXPRESS and SLEDGE HAMMER 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 YOURTHEWONFORME immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.

EXPEDITE and HO LEE HORSE were sent for sampling.
