Recap by phillip woo

Blocker Dee defied a wide gate and rise in grade to come on strongly from near the back to mow down favourite Mr Bogart for the win off a light weight. He lived up to a good trial and may be able to take the next step. Mr Bogart had hit the front 150m following a handy trip. He did nothing wrong and will certainly come on for this run. Bullish Smart kept grinding away following a prominent run to place over an unsuitable trip. He has a lion's heart. Hammer King stayed on nicely after a deep run in midfield to finish a clear fourth in his initial Valley run. The usually speedy Charity Joy came on well down the outside after settling second from the rear. He's always a chance over this course. High Five only plodded following a one-off run worse than midfield. He's lost the will to perform. Travel Renyi couldn't mound a challenge following a midfield run. He's not a Valley horse. Hella Hedge overdid things on the lead and stopped badly.

Racing Incident Report

Race Eight: (018)-YAU OI HANDICAP - Class 2 - 1200Metres

From the outside barrier, PABLOSKY got its head up on a number of occasions when being steadied in order to be shifted across behind runners in the early stages.

After the 700 Metres, HIGH FIVE was awkwardly placed close to the heels of HAMMER KING after initially being taken out by TRAVEL RENYI.

Rounding the Home Turn, MAJESTIC ANTHEM was awkwardly placed close to the heels of TRAVEL RENYI.

At the entrance to the Straight, BULLISH SMART was disappointed for running between RIGHTEOUS and ALMABABY which shifted in after initially laying out rounding the Home Turn.

Passing the 300 Metres, HIGH FIVE shifted to the outside of HAMMER KING after being disappointed for running inside that horse which got its head on the side and shifted in.

After this, HAMMER KING continued to lay in under pressure in the Straight.

When questioned, Y T Cheng stated that he had been instructed to take up a forward position on ALMABABY in accordance with the horse's usual racing pattern.

He said he rode ALMABABY aggressively in the early stages, however, making the first turn was left racing very wide and in between RIGHTEOUS and HELLA HEDGE, both of which were also being hard ridden.

He said after having made a lot of use of ALMABABY in the early stages, he felt that he would have had to make too much further use of his mount to clear RIGHTEOUS on his inside and therefore he elected, making the first turn, to steady his mount and obtain a position with cover.

He said making the turn approaching the 1000 Metres ALMABABY became unbalanced when crowded for room between RIGHTEOUS and HELLA HEDGE which lay in.

He added after making the first turn he was unable to obtain cover and consequently was left racing in a three wide position outside the leader.

He said making the Home Turn ALMABABY got its head on the side and hung out.

He said he then balanced ALMABABY up and rode the horse out in the Straight, however, it gave ground.

When questioned, Apprentice K K Chiong (CHARITY JOY) stated that she had been asked to ride the horse behind the leaders if possible, however, she was not to ride it aggressively to do so as it had proved difficult to settle in some of its previous races.

She said after beginning only fairly CHARITY JOY was crowded for room between RIGHTEOUS and HAMMER KING which was taken out by MAJESTIC ANTHEM which resulted in the horse being placed further back in the field than had been intended.

She said making the first turn she was reluctant to ride her mount along given her instructions and therefore she allowed the eventual leader BLOCKER DEE to cross CHARITY JOY approaching the 1000 Metres and elected to follow that horse throughout the race.

She said, despite riding CHARITY JOY along near the 400 Metres, BLOCKER DEE showed a superior turn of foot and she was not able to follow that horse into the Straight.

She added at the entrance to the Straight she shifted her mount to the outside of runners and CHARITY JOY then finished off the race satisfactorily.

The Stewards will question Mr C S Shum, the trainer of CHARITY JOY, prior to the races at the Sha Tin Racecourse on Sunday, 11 September 2016 prior to this matter being concluded.

BLOCKER DEE and MR BOGART were sent for sampling.
