Recap by phillip woo

Run Forrest had some leg issues last season but defied a deep run behind midfield to get up 80m out carrying top weight. He was too good with a drop in grade and if he stays sound should be competitive back in Class Three. Regency Baby ran well in defeat after pressing forward out wide to sit second 800m out before leading at the 200m and should be winning soon. Favourite Team Sweet was getting going late from behind midfield for a placing. He'll likely come on for this run but is proving costly at short odds. Super Sweet Orange came from near the back to fill the frame with late-market support. He may be near a bottom. Equity Doctrine produced a vastly improved run at big odds. Rock The Tree ran on after seeing only backsides for the most part. He definitely wants longer. Forever Accurate had no excuses following a prominent run with late-market action. Super Man clipped heels and dumped his rider 320m out.

Racing Incident Report

Race Five: (005)-TAMAR HANDICAP - Class 4 - 1400Metres

AUDACITY was crowded for room on jumping between TEAM SWEET and FOREVER ACCURATE which shifted in.

Shortly after the start, GAINFULJET and REGENCY BABY bumped, resulting in both horses becoming badly unbalanced.

From the outside barrier, SUPER SWEET ORANGE was shifted across behind runners in the early stages.

After the 1200 Metres, SUPER SWEET ORANGE got its head up on a number of occasions when proving difficult to settle.

After the 800 Metres, SMART SALUTE was left racing wide and without cover.

Near the 500 Metres, WORLD RECORD got its head on the side and shifted out towards the heels of SUPER SWEET ORANGE.

Shortly after entering the Straight, DIVINE DIYA was steadied when disappointed for running between TEAM SWEET and EQUITY DOCTRINE.

The Stewards inquired into the reason for Apprentice K K Chiong being dislodged from SUPER MAN passing the 350 Metres.

After taking evidence from Apprentice Chiong, in the presence of her allocated trainer, Mr K W Lui, N Callan (GAINFULJET) and Apprentice H N Wong (SMART SALUTE), it was established that rounding the Home Turn Apprentice Chiong attempted to shift SMART SALUTE out and improve between that horse and GAINFULJET where there was insufficient room.

After being disappointed for running, SUPER MAN then continued to race close to the heels of GAINFULJET and SMART SALUTE when held up for clear running.

SUPER MAN was consequently checked for some distance when unable to improve and passing the 350 Metres clipped the heels of SMART SALUTE and blundered badly, resulting in Apprentice Chiong being dislodged.

Apprentice Chiong was advised that she must show better judgement than she did on this occasion when positioning her mounts to obtain runs.

When Apprentice Chiong was dislodged from SUPER MAN, WORLD RECORD, which was following, was severely checked out away from the heels of that horse.

ROCK THE TREE, which was racing outside WORLD RECORD, was inconvenienced and AUDACITY, which was following SUPER MAN, was also hampered in consequence.

A veterinary inspection of SUPER MAN immediately following the race found that horse to be lame in its left front leg.

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

After the race, Apprentice Chiong was examined by the Club's medical officers and passed fit to fulfil her remaining race riding engagements.

Near the 250 Metres, TEAM SWEET raced in restricted room between EQUITY DOCTRINE and FOREVER ACCURATE which shifted in marginally.

A veterinary inspection of WORLD RECORD immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.

TEAM SWEET, RUN FORREST and REGENCY BABY were sent for sampling.
