Recap by phillip woo

Favourite Rapper Dragon quickened nicely to take control 200m out after rounding the final bend six deep following a handy run one off the fence for a third straight win. Beauty Only finished strongly five deep after travelling among the backmarkers to grab second 50m out. Secret Weapon settled midfield along the fence following a sluggish break, swung the final bend with two wider out and finished well to grab a placing. Beauty Flame reclaimed the lead from Top Act 350m out and found a few too good in the run to the wire. Top Act rushed forward to assume the lead from an awkward gate 1,150m out, straightened nearly a length on top and was yielding ground 150m out. Gun Pit made good ground near the inside after trailing the field for the most part. He might be better suited over the 1,800m. Flame Hero made only a mild bid after travelling third from the back between runners. Romantic Touch never let down two from the right upon straightening after travelling one off the fence in midfield despite a tonne of money for him late. Punted late, Helene Paragon never fired after a deep run.

Racing Incident Report

Race Eight: (675)-THE LION ROCK TROPHY (HANDICAP) - Hong Kong Group Three - 1600Metres

MULTIVICTORY was withdrawn on 26.5.16 by order of the Stewards acting on veterinary advice (lame left fore).

Before being allowed to race again, MULTIVICTORY will be subjected to an official veterinary examination.

D Whyte (SECRET WEAPON) was fined the sum of $2,000 for presenting himself to be weighed out with the incorrect saddle cloth number.

DUNDONNELL was slow to begin.

SECRET WEAPON began only fairly.

FLAME HERO and REWARDING HERO bumped at the start.

A short distance after the start, TOP ACT was awkwardly placed close to the heels of REWARDING HERO due to both horses shifting ground.

After the 1400 Metres, SECRET WEAPON was awkwardly placed close to the heels of RAPPER DRAGON.

Also after the 1400 Metres, TOP ACT was left racing wide and without cover and was consequently allowed to improve its position to race in the lead.

Approaching the 1300 Metres, ROMANTIC TOUCH was awkwardly placed close to the heels of REWARDING HERO.

Passing the 400 Metres, as K Teetan (TOP ACT) was commencing to use the whip, it got caught underneath the right rein of M Chadwick (BEAUTY FLAME), resulting in K Teetan dropping his whip.

When questioned regarding the disappointing performance of HELENE PARAGON, C Schofield stated that HELENE PARAGON was obliged to race in a three wide position for the majority of the race albeit that the horse had partial cover behind ROMANTIC TOUCH.

He said although HELENE PARAGON was not suited by the slow tempo of the race in the early and middle stages, nonetheless the horse quickened satisfactorily in the early part of the Straight when making its run to the outside of horses.

He added after this he placed HELENE PARAGON under pressure and the horse finished off the race only fairly.

A veterinary inspection of HELENE PARAGON immediately following the race revealed the horse to have sustained a small wound to the right hind leg.

RAPPER DRAGON and BEAUTY ONLY were sent for sampling.
