Recap by phillip woo

In a tactical affair, Bo Duke took off 850m out from midfield to quickly find the front at the 750m, cornered a length on top and kept finding to make it back-to-back despite tackling 2,200m for the first time. He has turned things around this season but might find things harder following a further penalty. Travelling second from the rear, Winaswewish followed a move from Towering Storm at the 850m and sustained his run to finish second best. He easily passed his Class Four test following a win in the bottom grade and remains one to follow at a mile to 2,200m over this course. King Bountiful got dragged back to near last rounding the final bend following a prominent run but finished strongly widest out to snatch a placing. He's always a chance over this sort of trip. Zac Purton on Towering Storm didn't like the pedestrian fractions up front and worked his way to second approaching the final bend but peaked on his run 100m out. The weight anchored him but he'll be winning a race shortly at this level. Supernatural was struggling 600m out after sitting one off in second or third behind Casa Master's slow fractions.

Racing Incident Report

Race Five: (135)-TAI SHUE WAN HANDICAP - Class 4 - 2200Metres

KERKENI was slow to begin and from the outside barrier was shifted across behind runners in the early stages.

WINASWEWISH was slow to begin.

Near the 2100 Metres, MISTRAL got its head on the side and shifted out despite the efforts of its rider, resulting in PRECISIONCRAFTSMAN being badly crowded for room onto SUPERNATURAL which became badly unbalanced.

After this, MISTRAL continued to lay out.

Near the 1700 Metres, MAC ROW was severely checked when crowded for room inside SMART UNION (N Rawiller) which improve to be racing inside the heels of WIN IT which, after shifting out marginally rounding the Home Turn, then shifted in to resume its position.

In this incident, KERKENI, which was following MAC ROW, was hampered in consequence.

N Rawiller was advised that whilst the Stewards recognised that he steadied his mount during this incident in an attempt to prevent the tightening to MAC ROW, nonetheless he was reprimanded and advised to ensure that he does not place his mounts in positions where interference is likely to occur.

Approaching the 1100 Metres, MAC ROW got its head up when awkwardly placed close to the heels of BO DUKE.

Making the turn near the 600 Metres, MISTRAL, which was inclined to lay out, and PRECISIONCRAFTSMAN were crowded for room inside SMART UNION which was taken in by WINASWEWISH (O Doleuze).

KING BOUNTIFUL, which was following, was hampered in consequence.

O Doleuze was severely reprimanded and advised to ensure that he is properly clear of other runners when shifting ground in similar circumstances.

Near the 450 Metres, MISTRAL shifted out and bumped KING BOUNTIFUL which was racing tight inside WIN IT, resulting in MISTRAL becoming unbalanced and losing ground.

The performance of MISTRAL, which finished tailed out, was considered unacceptable.

Before being allowed to race again, MISTRAL will be required to perform to the satisfaction of the Stewards in a barrier trial and be subjected to an official veterinary examination.

Rounding the Home Turn, KING BOUNTIFUL was checked away from the heels of PRECISIONCRAFTSMAN before being shifted out into clear running.

Near the 250 Metres, KING BOUNTIFUL and KERKENI brushed.

Passing the 250 Metres, WIN IT was shifted in away from the heels of MAC ROW.

When questioned, D Whyte (SUPERNATURAL) stated that the horse travelled comfortably in a forward position until approaching the 700 Metres when the tempo of the race quickened.

He added that the horse immediately came under pressure and after this did not respond to his riding and was most disappointing.

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

A veterinary inspection of SMART UNION immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.

KING BOUNTIFUL, BO DUKE and WINASWEWISH were sent for sampling.
