Racing Incident Report
Race Seven: (270) - HYDRANGEA HANDICAP - Class 3 - 1650Meters
GO GO WIN was withdrawn on 12.12.17 by order of the Stewards acting on veterinary advice (lame right fore) and was replaced by Standby Declared Starter TRAVEL FIRST (Apprentice H T Mo).
Before being allowed to race again, GO GO WIN will be subjected to an official veterinary examination.
Apprentice M F Poon (HAPPY AND HEALTHY) was fined the sum of $2,000 for presenting himself to be weighed out with the incorrect saddle cloth number.
EASY HEDGE began awkwardly and lost ground.
From a wide barrier, when being steadied to obtain a position with cover, SMILING CHARM got its head up on a number of occasions.
From the outside barrier, HAPPY AND HEALTHY was steadied in the early stages and shifted across behind runners.
After the 1300 Metres, THE JUDGE was left racing wide and without cover.
Also after the 1300 Metres, EASY HEDGE was awkwardly placed close to the heels of JADE FORTUNE.
Over the concluding stages, TRAVEL FIRST was inconvenienced when racing raced tight outside PHOTON WILLIE which shifted out marginally under pressure.
A veterinary inspection of JADE FORTUNE and EASY HEDGE immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.
MISTER MONTE and DR WIN WIN were sent for sampling.
Recap by phillip woo
Favourite Mister Monte was left alone in front and had plenty left in the tank to open his win account after putting the writing on the wall with seconds in two prior starts. He's come right and can win another. Dr Win Win kept up a good gallop to just hold second after rushing forward from a wide gate to sit second in the run. He's racing nicely over this Valley trip this term and will be hard to oppose from a better draw. Nitro Express let down well from behind midfield to just miss second with a return to form at his third start this term. Naturally back on track and can pop up at any time over this trip. Go Beauty Go had no excuse following a box-seat run. He requires rating relief. Photon Willie was getting going late without menacing following a patient ride third from the rear. He hasn't been too far away in his past three starts but is beyond his better days and will need to drop further in the handicaps carrying a light weight.
