Racing Incident Report
Race Three: (446)-THE QUEEN'S SILVER JUBILEE CUP - Group One - 1400Metres
From the outside barriers, JOYFUL TRINITY and HELENE PARAGON were shifted across behind runners in the early stages.Approaching the 1300 Metres, ABLE FRIEND was awkwardly placed outside the heels of STRATHMORE.
When attempting to improve into tight running between CONTENTMENT and BLIZZARD approaching the 300 Metres, SUN JEWELLERY was hampered when CONTENTMENT shifted out under pressure.
SUN JEWELLERY was consequently held up for clear running until near the 200 Metres.
Passing the 300 Metres, the whip of N Rawiller (BLIZZARD) was knocked from his grasp by the whip of J Moreira (ABLE FRIEND).
Close to the finishing line, BLIZZARD shifted in and bumped CONTENTMENT, causing both horses to become unbalanced.
HELENE PARAGON and ABLE FRIEND were sent for sampling.
Recap by phillip woo
Helene Paragon took off from the rear at the 600m to draw level at the 200m with Able Friend and edged clear close to home for back-to-back Group One wins. He's top flight over the 1,400m to 1,800m. Odds-on favourite Able Friend finished nicely after travelling third from the rear but couldn't match his stablemate in the end. He ran well in defeat but the wear-and-tear of racing appears to be getting to the seven year old. Joyful Trinity came on very well travelling second from the rear to fill a placing. He continues to run crackers over the 1,400m and mile but is just a shade below the best. Blizzard kept on reasonably well after stalking the speed. He's group material but not top class. Contentment had his chance on the lead and wilted in the final 100m. He's beyond his better days and will require rating relief. Sun Jewellery disappointed yet again following a box-seat run.
