Recap by phillip woo

Funny Buddies responded nicely when peeling out rounding the final bend following a one-off run in midfield to take control 120m out for a maiden win after failing to light the board in 18 prior starts. All credit to the Paul O'Sullivan team who have only had him for one other start. Bliss Cartel fanned into the open with two wider out upon straightening and finished strongly to grab second 20m after travelling third from the rear. Hard to fault his honesty but he can't seem to salute. Winning Boy stayed on a non-threatening third with every chance following a prominent run along the fence. It was a decent effort but he's beyond his better days. Bright Star closed off well after travelling fourth from the rear. He was suited by the drop in class. Idyllic Wind didn't finish all that far back after punching the breeze up on the speed the entire time. He can't be ignored when he draws a gate. All Together came up flat after covering too much ground fore of midfield from a tricky gate. You can dismiss this run. Favourite Seven Luck was held up for a good part of the straight behind the tiring leader Free November and Winning Boy when trying to improve along the inside following a midfield run. He had excuses.

Racing Incident Report

Race Two: (708)-MOUNT GOUGH HANDICAP - Class 5 - 1200Metres

DON WONGCHOY began only fairly.

SEVEN LUCK and FUNNY BUDDIES bumped shortly after the start due to both horses shifting ground.

After this, FUNNY BUDDIES lay in, resulting in SEVEN LUCK being crowded for room outside FREE NOVEMBER.

From the outside barriers, INTELLECTUAL GLIDE, BRIGHT STAR, GREAT SPEED and BLISS CARTEL were all shifted across behind runners in the early stages.

FUNNY BUDDIES lay out making the first turn after the 1000 Metres.

Near the 550 Metres, SEVEN LUCK raced tight inside FUNNY BUDDIES which got its head on the side and lay in.

After the 550 Metres, ALL TOGETHER was left racing wide and without cover.

At the entrance to the Straight, NATURAL TEAM was awkwardly placed inside the heels of ALL TOGETHER.

Near the 350 Metres, INTELLECTUAL GLIDE raced tight inside BLISS CARTEL.

Passing the 300 Metres, SEVEN LUCK was shifted to the inside of WINNING BOY to obtain clear running.

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

A veterinary inspection of SEVEN LUCK immediately following the race confirmed the horse to be a "roarer?? which had previously been reported.

SEVEN LUCK, FUNNY BUDDIES and BLISS CARTEL were sent for sampling.
