Recap by phillip woo

Favourite Sky Gem rallied nicely to take control 200m out after settling five back and one off the fence to add to an earlier 2,200m win at the Valley. He's always a chance at this level. Enjoyable Success closed well to grab second after making his run fourth from the rear. He has been finding the line well of late and a win is around the corner. King Print stuck on well to hold a placing after poking his head in front 250m following a move 1,000m out to sit three-deep near the speed at the 600m. He clearly has the tools to win a race in this grade. Young Glory was blocked for a run from the top of the straight until the last 100m following a handy run and should have finished closer. Master Roman made some headway after getting held up early straight following a rail run behind midfield. Well-backed late Great Smart stayed on without ever looking a threat following a one-off run in midfield. It was his best run to date following a stable and gear change.

Racing Incident Report

Race One: (660) - YUNG SHUE O HANDICAP - Class 5 - 2200Meters

AEROFLASH began awkwardly, shifted out and bumped the hindquarters of MASTER ROMAN which became unbalanced.

GOLDEN KID was slow to begin.

From wide barriers, THE JOY OF GIVING and STRAPPING BAUHINIA were steadied in the early stages to obtain cover.

Passing the winning post on the first occasion, AMAZING AGILITY was crowded for room inside GREAT SMART which, after improving quickly to be racing inside the heels of YOUNG GLORY, was then momentarily crowded inside that horse which shifted in before being directed back out to relieve the tightening.

In this incident, MASTER ROMAN, which was following AMAZING AGILITY, was steadied.

MASTER ROMAN lost its right front plate in the early stages.

KING PRINT raced wide and without cover from approaching the 1000 Metres.

Passing the 1000 Metres, REEVE'S MUNTJAC was taken wider by GOLDEN KID which shifted out to improve around ENJOYABLE SUCCESS.

Near the 900 Metres, SKY GEM and GOLDEN KID raced tight and made contact for some distance as SKY GEM shifted out to improve into tight running between GREAT SMART and GOLDEN KID.

After racing in restricted room between GREAT SMART and GOLDEN KID, SKY GEM was then steadied passing the 800 Metres when GREAT SMART shifted out marginally.

Passing the 600 Metres, MERIDIAN TALENT raced tight inside YOUNG GLORY which got its head on the side and lay in.

Rounding the Home Turn, YOUNG GLORY and KING PRINT raced tight as YOUNG GLORY attempted to shift out from behind ASSOCIATION FANS.

YOUNG GLORY was then awkwardly placed close to the heels of ASSOCIATION FANS when held up for clear running after being unable to improve between that horse and KING PRINT.

MERIDIAN TALENT was held up for clear running passing the 400 Metres.

Passing the 400 Metres, GREAT SMART and MASTER ROMAN bumped as MASTER ROMAN attempted to shift out to obtain clear running.

In this incident, MASTER ROMAN became unbalanced.

Both Apprentice C L Chau (THE JOY OF GIVING) and C Y Ho (REEVE'S MUNTJAC) were spoken to regarding using the whip on a horse out of contention.

After the race, an endoscopic examination was conducted on REEVE'S MUNTJAC at the request of Trainer C H Yip.

The Veterinary Surgeon reported that this examination showed a substantial amount of blood in the horse's trachea and also found the horse to be a "roarer??which had previously been reported.

Before being allowed to race again, REEVE'S MUNTJAC will be subjected to an official veterinary examination.

A veterinary inspection of THE JOY OF GIVING and AEROFLASH immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.

SKY GEM and ENJOYABLE SUCCESS were sent for sampling.
