Racing Incident Report
Race Ten: (248) - ASHLEY HANDICAP - Class 2 - 1200Meters
WINNER SUPREME (Apprentice C Wong) began only fairly and was ridden along for some distance in the early stages to obtain a forward position.
Apprentice Wong stated that at no stage of the race did WINNER SUPREME travel well and when giving ground in the Straight did not feel comfortable in its action.
A veterinary inspection of WINNER SUPREME immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.
The performance of WINNER SUPREME, a favoured runner and which finished at the rear of the field, was considered unacceptable.
Before being allowed to race again, WINNER SUPREME will be required to perform to the satisfaction of the Stewards in a barrier trial and be subjected to an official veterinary examination.
MASSIVE POCKET shifted out at the start and bumped SMART LEADER.
After this, despite being ridden along, SMART LEADER failed to muster speed.
AMAZING CHOCOLATE began only fairly and then was checked when crowded for room inside WILL POWER which was taken in by LARSON which shifted in after becoming unbalanced as a result of being bumped by ENCORE BOY which received contact from SUNNY BOY.
After this, from a wide barrier, SUNNY BOY was shifted across behind runners to obtain cover.
Also from the outside barrier, MEGA HEART was shifted across behind runners in the early stages.
After the 700 Metres, ENCORE BOY was left racing wide and without cover.
Passing the 400 Metres, SMART LEADER shifted out and bumped SUNNY BOY, causing both horses to become unbalanced.
A veterinary inspection of LARSON and GUY DRAGON immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.
AMAZING CHOCOLATE and WILL POWER were sent for sampling.
GENERAL:
1.
2 December 2020 Happy Valley Racemeeting - Race 5 (235) The Stewards today interviewed Mr D A Hayes, the trainer of SPRINT FORWARD, regarding the instructions that he provided to Apprentice K H Chan on how that horse should be ridden in this race.
Mr Hayes stated that he provided identical instructions to Apprentice Chan to those given to Apprentice C L Chau who rode SPRINT FORWARD when it was successful at its most recent start.
He said on both occasions he asked the rider not to ride SPRINT FORWARD along in the early stages as when use had been made of the horse in the early stages previously it had not finished off the race as anticipated.
He said at its last start the horse showed natural early speed to be able to take up a forward position and he anticipated that it would be able to obtain a similar run in this race.
He added whilst he was satisfied that Apprentice Chan had not ridden SPRINT FORWARD along in the early stages in accordance with his instructions, nonetheless he was disappointed that the horse got so far out of its ground given it had been able to take up a prominent position at its most recent start.

Recap by phillip woo
Amazing Chocolate finished well down the outside to just blouse favourite Will Power despite a wide without cover run beyond midfield. It was a huge effort trying the AWT 1,200m for the first time at just his second outing this term. Will Power found one just too good on the wire after hitting the front 100m out following a midfield. He continues to run huge on this surface. Red Desert grudgingly gave way after claiming the lead from Winner Supreme 300m out following a pace-stalking run from a wide gate. He rarely produces a bad run on this surface. Lobo's Legend ran on well along the inside following a rail run in midfield to just miss a placing. It was a good effort. Mega Heart came from a detached spot to finish a non-threatening fifth. He needs a stronger pace. Encore Boy came up flat 150m out after a prominent run. He couldn't cope carrying 11 pounds more with a riding change to Joao Moreira.
