Recap by phillip woo

Punted late Very Sweet Orange showed his usual gate speed to lead, cornered two lengths on top and just held off the late surge of Super Lucky for a third win from six starts this term. Super Lucky finished strongly to make it close on the wire after a patient ride fourth from the rear. He's racing very well without winning in his past three starts. Fancied late in betting Winning Ways peaked on his 50m out after tracking the speed three deep from a wide gate. He's vastly improved since joining the Danny Shum Chap-shing yard. Dr Proactive finished strongly to snatch fourth after spotting them a huge start from a wide gate. Favourite Oversubscribed ran on steadily without menacing following a midfield run on the fence. He might require 1,200m now. Confucius Day grudgingly gave way after stalking the leader. He's better suited over the 1,200m. Happy Good Guys had every chance following a prominent run on the fence.

Racing Incident Report

Race Four: (448) - VILLAGE HANDICAP - Class 4 - 1000Meters



SUPER LUCKY began only fairly.

THOU SHALL SING was crowded for room on jumping between CONFUCIUS DAY and VERY SWEET ORANGE, both of which shifted ground.

E GENERATION shifted out at the start and was steadied away from the heels of DR PROACTIVE.

After this, both E GENERATION and DR PROACTIVE were shifted across behind runners in the early stages.

After the 800 Metres, BEAUT BEAUT commenced to travel keenly and got its head up when being steadied to obtain cover.

Then near the 750 Metres, BEAUT BEAUT was momentarily awkwardly placed close to the heels of HAPPY GOOD GUYS which was taken in by VERY SWEET ORANGE.

Approaching the 600 Metres, AURORA STEED was steadied when crowded for room between BEAUT BEAUT and WINNING WAYS (Z Purton) which shifted in before being directed out to relieve the tightening to AURORA STEED.

Z Purton was reprimanded and advised to ensure that runners to his inside have comfortable racing room and to make every endeavour at the earliest opportunity to relieve any tightening.

Near the 450 Metres, SUPER LUCKY and AURORA STEED raced tight.

Passing the 300 Metres, THOU SHALL SING was shifted out away from the heels of AURORA STEED which was taken wider by SUPER LUCKY which shifted to the outside of BEAUT BEAUT to obtain clear running.

Also passing the 300 Metres, OVERSUBSCRIBED was hampered by WINNER'S HEART which shifted in.

Throughout the race, WINNING WAYS travelled wide and without cover.

A veterinary inspection of BEAUT BEAUT, WINNER'S HEART and HAPPY GOOD GUYS immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.

After the race, an endoscopic examination was conducted on WINNING WAYS at the request of Trainer C S Shum.

The Veterinary Surgeon said this examination showed a substantial amount of blood in the horse's trachea.

Before being allowed to race again, WINNING WAYS will be subjected to an official veterinary examination.

OVERSUBSCRIBED, VERY SWEET ORANGE and SUPER LUCKY were sent for sampling.
