Racing Incident Report
Race Eight: (265) - THE LONGINES HONG KONG CUP - Class G1 - 2000Meters
SKALLETI was slow to begin and then was steadied away from the heels of NORMCORE which shifted out.
DANCES WITH DRAGON was steadied to obtain cover in the early stages.
Near the 1300 Metres, NORMCORE travelled keenly and was awkwardly placed behind WIN BRIGHT.
Rounding the Home Turn and again passing the 400 Metres, WIN BRIGHT was bumped by FURORE which shifted out.
Near the 50 Metres, FURORE was momentarily awkwardly placed inside the heels of WIN BRIGHT after being directed out by MAGICAL which shifted out away from DANON PREMIUM.
A veterinary inspection of SKALLETI immediately following the race including an endoscopic examination showed a substantial amount of blood in the horse's trachea.
MAGICAL, NORMCORE and WIN BRIGHT were sent for sampling.
Recap by phillip woo
It was a one-two finish for Japan. Normcore ran on strongly following a one-off trip in midfield to grab victory 100m out. Win Bright just found his countrymate too good following a handy run. Favourite Magical made a steady bid near the inside to finish third without menacing the top pair following a patient ride third from the rear. Danon Premium found a few too good after surging to the lead 350m out following a pace-stalking run outsider leader Time Warp. Furore was the best of the locals but did have his chance following a box-seat run. Dances With Dragon ran on without menacing from the rear of the field. He's not good enough at this level. Plunged late Skalleti was a non-factor after over-racing at the back following a slow start.
