Recap by phillip woo

In a thrilling finish, Terrific Master engaged Xinjiang Yarn for the front 250m out after a midfield run and out-duelled that one to land a betting move in his first try over the 2,000m. He might find things harder now at the top of the weights. Xinjiang Yarn only succumbed in the late stages after rolling forward to challenge for the front 250m out following one-off run in fourth from a wide gate. He's running well and will be hard to beat from a good gate. King Bountiful was reeling them in late following a rails run worse than midfield to just miss second. He's always a chance over a route. Ashkiyr kept up a grinding move from behind midfield to fill a Quartet spot. He's running well of late but is more effective over the 1,800m. Blazing Pass ran on without menacing from behind midfield. He needs a stronger pace. Agiaal was a ball of sweat in the paddock but ran on well after travelling second from the rear from a wide gate.

Racing Incident Report

Race Three: (373)-RED PACKET HANDICAP - Class 4 - 2000Metres

JE PENSE bounded in the air at the start, began very awkwardly and consequently lost ground.

In this incident, JE PENSE bumped the hindquarters of BLAZING PASS which became unbalanced.

KING BOUNTIFUL began only fairly.

Shortly after the start, ROCK THE TREE shifted out and bumped FANCY MUSIC.

From wide barriers, AEROLUMINANCE and AGIAAL were steadied in the early stages and shifted across behind runners.

Passing the 1500 Metres, TERRIFIC MASTER proved difficult to settle when being restrained to obtain cover behind XINJIANG YARN.

Approaching and passing the 1400 Metres, BEST REWARD proved difficult to settle and was awkwardly placed behind ASHKIYR.

After the 500 Metres, ROCK THE TREE and AEROLUMINANCE bumped.

After this, ROCK THE TREE and AEROLUMINANCE raced tight and near the 400 Metres again bumped after which AEROLUMINANCE got its head on the side and lay in, resulting in ROCK THE TREE being awkwardly placed outside the heels of AGIAAL.

AEROLUMINANCE continued to lay in and proved difficult to ride for a considerable distance after this.

After being bumped by AEROLUMINANCE approaching the 300 Metres, ROCK THE TREE hung in.

Passing the 150 Metres, B Prebble (ROCK THE TREE) dropped his whip.

Passing the 50 Metres, SUPER FORM was inconvenienced when awkwardly placed inside the heels of XINJIANG YARN which lay in under pressure.

Approaching the finishing line, BEST REWARD was awkwardly placed close to the heels of ASHKIYR and consequently was not able to be properly tested.

Close to the finishing line, HAPPY AND HEALTHY was awkwardly placed close to the heels of TERRIFIC MASTER and consequently was not able to be ridden out all the way to the end of the race.

When questioned regarding the disappointing performance of FANCY MUSIC, Z Purton stated that as at its last start when the horse began well it was hoped that, because of the makeup of the field, FANCY MUSIC may be able to obtain a position about midfield or just worse than midfield with cover.

He said however that ROCK THE TREE improved its position inside FANCY MUSIC after the 1800 Metres and because of this FANCY HORSE was left racing wide and without cover and after the 1500 Metres without cover.

He said FANCY MUSIC did not travel well at any stage of the race and, in his opinion, did not appear to be as confident on the surface as it was at its last start when successful.

He added FANCY MUSIC came under heavy pressure near the 600 Metres and then, despite being ridden out, gave ground.

He said the horse became unbalanced in its action near the 300 Metres and after this he eased it down, however, FANCY MUSIC was already well beaten at this time.

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

The performance of FANCY MUSIC, a last start winner, was considered unacceptable.

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

A veterinary inspection of ROCK THE TREE immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.

FANCY MUSIC, TERRIFIC MASTER and XINJIANG YARN were sent for sampling.
