Recap by phillip woo

Jolly Gene just held on by a whisker over Gorgeous Again after getting his own way out front after clearing to the lead 1,300m out for a second win from his past three starts. He makes his own luck out front but might find it harder at the top of the grade off a big weight. Thumped late in betting, Gorgeous Again finished well three from the right following a handy run to make it a very close on the wire. He's won four times this season and appears from his past two to have the tools to eventually score at this level. Rule Thee got shuffled back to near last rounding the final bend but finished well to make it close on the wire in a vastly-improved effort at his sixth start following a crucial rise in distance. Off this effort, he looks a decent stayer going forward and isn't far off a drop in grade as well. Ensuring ran on a non-threatening fourth from near the back. The big weight was a hurdle. Sharp Sailor stayed on all right after straightening in midfield but is better at the Valley. Favourite Best Reward's bubble burst with a rise in class. He took off from the back to settle second 1,250m out but ran out of petrol 350m out and will need to catch his breath after winning four on the trot.

Racing Incident Report

Race Four: (772)-SERVING THE COMMUNITY HANDICAP - Class 3 - 2000Metres

ENSURING began only fairly.

From a wide barrier, KYRUS BROWSER was steadied in the early stages and shifted across behind runners.

Passing the winning post on the first occasion, HEHA BOY was steadied away from the heels of GORGEOUS AGAIN.

After this, HEHA BOY was awkwardly placed behind GORGEOUS AGAIN for a short distance.

Passing the 1300 Metres, SHARP SAILOR travelled keenly and shifted out away from the heels of JOLLY GENE and bumped BULLISH GLORY.

After the 1000 Metres, KYRUS BROWSER was left racing wide and without cover.

Passing the 400 Metres, GORGEOUS AGAIN shifted out and bumped ENSURING, resulting in GORGEOUS AGAIN becoming unbalanced and momentarily laying in behind KYRUS BROWSER.

When questioned, Apprentice H T Mo (SHARP SAILOR) stated that after the 1300 Metres his mount commenced to travel keenly and shifted out away from the heels of JOLLY GENE and bumped BULLISH GLORY.

He said after this SHARP SAILOR continued to travel keenly.

He said after the 1200 Metres a margin developed between SHARP SAILOR and JOLLY GENE and as BULLISH GLORY was attempting to shift in behind JOLLY GENE, he was reluctant to ride his mount along at this stage to maintain his position having regard to the manner in which the horse had been previously over-racing.

Apprentice Mo was advised that his explanation would be reported, however, he should, wherever circumstances permit, make every endeavour to maintain favourable positions.

A veterinary inspection of BEST REWARD immediately following the race found that horse to be lame in its left front leg.

Before being allowed to race again, BEST REWARD will be subjected to an official veterinary examination.

BEST REWARD, JOLLY GENE and GORGEOUS AGAIN were sent for sampling.
