Recap by phillip woo

D B Pin finished strongly after covering ground three deep third from the rear to overhaul odds-on favourite Mr Stunning 50m out for an overdue win after a heart-breaking defeat in the HK Sprint. He's a top-flight sprinter. Mr Stunning surged to the lead 150m out following a one-out, one-back run and had to settle for a dead-heat second with stablemate Beat The Clock in the end. He's having a brilliant campaign and lost nothing in defeat. Beat The Clock finished nicely after trailing the field to finish level for second and give the stable a Group One sweep despite giving the winner 17 points. He's got a bright future. Lucky Year stayed on well following a midfield run. He's a quality sprinter but just below the top few. Blizzard was swamped 100m out after taking the lead from Peniaphobia at the 300m following a pace-stalking role. He's better ridden quietly. Lucky Bubbles failed to lift following a patient ride second from the rear.

Racing Incident Report

Race Seven: (379) - THE CENTENARY SPRINT CUP - Class G1 - 1200Meters

LUCKY YEAR and BEAT THE CLOCK began only fairly.

After the 1000 Metres, D B PIN was left racing wide and without cover.

Passing the 200 Metres BEAT THE CLOCK was shifted out away from the heels of BLIZZARD to obtain clear running.

When questioned regarding the performance of LUCKY BUBBLES, H Bowman stated that he was not able to offer any explanation for the horse's disappointing run.

He said although the race was not run at a good tempo, LUCKY BUBBLES settled satisfactorily in the early stages with the blinkers applied for the first time today, however, did not quicken as it had when he had ridden the horse in the past.

He said LUCKY BUBBLES was then disappointing in its failure to respond to his riding in the Straight.

A veterinary inspection of LUCKY BUBBLES immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.

D B PIN, MR STUNNING and BEAT THE CLOCK were sent for sampling.
