Recap by phillip woo

The ultra-consistent Utopia Life kept finding after getting away with slow sections in front for a narrow win. It was a deserving second win on the surface but he'll likely find things harder in Class Two. Enshrined just failed to get up after a box-seat run. He took advantage of a better gate after going all right in his past two from outside draws. Raging favourite Sky Show was under the pump before the final bend but still kept on well after stalking the speed to finish a very close third. It was a pleasing effort up in class in his first go on the surface. California Argent only held his ground following a one-out, one-back run to finish a distant fourth. He's just not quite good enough at this level. Winning For All made some ground from behind midfield. It wasn't a bad effort on debut. Good For You ran on without menacing after his usual patient ride third from the back.

Racing Incident Report

Race Six: (794) - VICTORIA HARBOUR HANDICAP - Class 3 - 1200Meters



SIMPLE ELEGANT began awkwardly, shifted out towards the heels of UTOPIA LIFE and consequently became awkwardly placed inside the heels of that horse.

GOOD FOR YOU began awkwardly, shifted out and bumped PRANCE DRAGON.

After this, GOOD FOR YOU was steadied to obtain cover.

When being steadied to obtain cover from a wide barrier, LUMEN BABA got its head up on jumping.

From the outside barriers, PRINCE OF BON BON and STRIVE FOR GLORY were shifted across behind runners in the early stages.

Passing the 1100 Metres, ENSHRINED raced tight inside CALIFORNIA ARGENT which was racing tight inside UTOPIA LIFE.

After the 1000 Metres, PRANCE DRAGON got its head up when travelling keenly and awkwardly placed behind WINNING FOR ALL.

When LUMEN BABA was awkwardly placed behind SIMPLE ELEGANT, LUMEN BABA shifted out away from the heels of that horse approaching the 650 Metres, resulting in GOOD FOR YOU being taken out and causing STRIVE FOR GLORY to be hampered.

Approaching the 100 Metres, ENSHRINED raced tight outside UTOPIA LIFE.

After the race, M F Poon (SIMPLE ELEGANT) stated that after being crossed by other runners in the early stages, his mount did not travel comfortably and became unbalanced in its action near the 1000 Metres.
