Recap by phillip woo

Favourite Great Smart wore down long-time leader Art Of Raw 60m out after a box-seat run for a return to the winner's circle. He was able to back-up a near win earlier this month at Sha Tin. Punted late Art Of Raw did everything right but get the win after a wellrated run in front by Karis Teetan. He's run well to place in three of four starts without winning this term. Plunged late Baby Storm kept on well for a placing after tracking the leader one off the fence. He produced an improved effort with a move to a 10-pound claimer. Class dropper General Dino ran on steadily along the inside from midfield to fill the frame without menacing the top-three with bags of money for him late. Strapping Bauhinia kept on one-paced after travelling effectively one-out, one-back. He's found things harder in his past two starts following an opening win this season. Green Generation produced an even effort after a wide with cover run worse than midfield.

Racing Incident Report

Race Two: (140) - GOLD MOUNT HANDICAP - Class 5 - 1800Meters



SUCCESS ALLSTARS was withdrawn on 26.10.20 by order of the Stewards acting on veterinary advice (lame right fore) and was replaced by Standby Declared Starter ART OF RAW.

Before being allowed to race again, SUCCESS ALLSTARS will be subjected to an official veterinary examination.

After being loaded into the barriers, YES WE CAN reared abruptly and momentarily sat down, resulting in C Schofield being dislodged.

YES WE CAN was removed from the barriers and examined by the Veterinary Officer who said in his opinion it was suitable to race.

Before being allowed to race again, YES WE CAN will be required to perform satisfactorily in a stalls test.

C Schofield was examined by the Chief Medical Officer and found to be fit to ride.

After the race, C Schofield was again examined by the Chief Medical Officer who said he was fit to fulfil his remaining race riding engagements.

HEALTHY TREASURE lifted its front feet off the ground as the start was effected and began awkwardly and then became unbalanced as a result of being bumped by MASTER ROMAN which shifted in.

A short distance after this, HEALTHY TREASURE and MASTER ROMAN lost ground when crowded for room between GREEN GENERATION and ART OF RAW, both of which shifted ground.

From the outside barriers, PRESIDENT STAR and HAPPY HOUR were steadied in the early stages and shifted across behind runners to obtain cover.

Approaching the 1300 Metres, YES WE CAN was crowded for room between GREEN GENERATION and GENERAL DINO which shifted out after being bumped on the hindquarters by YES WE CAN.

Passing the 600 Metres, GENERAL DINO brushed the running rail.

Near the 550 Metres, GREEN GENERATION was awkwardly placed behind KANBEKI MOLLY which came under pressure.

GREEN GENERATION continued to be awkwardly placed behind KANBEKI MOLLY and then raced tight with YES WE CAN when improving between that horse and KANBEKI MOLLY passing the 450 Metres.

MASTER ROMAN had some difficulty obtaining clear running rounding the Home Turn.

Throughout the race, KANBEKI MOLLY travelled wide and without cover.

When questioned regarding the disappointing performance of YES WE CAN, C Schofield stated that the horse's barrier manners did not play any part in the performance of the horse.

He said YES WE CAN, which was racing at Happy Valley for the first time tonight, did not appear to appreciate racing amongst horses and the horse was reluctant to maintain its position between runners passing the 1300 Metres.

He said after this YES WE CAN did not travel strongly and, in his opinion, is better suited to racing at Sha Tin as the tempo and style of racing at that track would suit the horse better at this early stage of its career.

A veterinary inspection of YES WE CAN immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.

A veterinary inspection of MASTER ROMAN and GREEN GENERATION immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.

GREAT SMART and ART OF RAW were sent for sampling.
