Recap by phillip woo

Tango Fire enjoyed a lovely run in the box-seat, straightened three deep and finished well to get up 100m out. He relished a return to the dirt. Respect pressed forward from a wide gate to sit one off in second outside Lucky Seven, assumed the front 250m out and found one too good in the end. Dr Race settled one off in midfield, spun the final bend with three wider out and finished off reasonably well to edge out Lucky Seven for a placing. Lucky Seven flew the start to hold the fence on the lead, cornered nearly a length on top and came up flat in the final 100m. Forever Posh stayed on all right near the inside following a rails run in midfield with a drop in grade and switch to the dirt. Favourite Planet Giant only held his ground widest out after a deep run without cover in midfield following a sluggish break. Furious Pegasus made some ground late after travelling second from the rear in an improved run with a drop in grade and return to the dirt. Smart Salute made only a mild bid four from the right after travelling three deep.

Racing Incident Report

Race Three: (756)-BETTERMENT OF HONG KONG HANDICAP - Class 4 - 1200Metres

MOTIF was slow to begin.

SMART SALUTE was crowded for room on jumping between RESPECT and LUCKY SEVEN which shifted out.

FURIOUS PEGASUS got its head up shortly after the start when being steadied to obtain cover.

Despite being vigorously ridden along in the early stages, PLANET GIANT failed to muster speed and then for the majority of the race travelled wide and without cover.

Despite being vigorously ridden along in the early and middle stages, TRILLION TREASURE failed to muster speed and raced at the rear of the field.

A veterinary inspection of TRILLION TREASURE, which finished last, immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.

Near the 250 Metres, J Moreira (RESPECT) dropped his whip.

Over the concluding stages, BO DUKE was awkwardly placed close to the heels of MOTIF which was weakening.

In the Straight, INVISIBLE lay out under pressure.

A veterinary inspection of MOTIF immediately following the horse confirmed the horse to be a "roarer" which had previously been reported.

A veterinary inspection of PLANET GIANT immediately following the race found that horse to be lame in its right front leg.

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

PLANET GIANT, TANGO FIRE and RESPECT were sent for sampling.
