Recap by phillip woo

Favourite Gorgeous Vitality never looked back for an easy win after being ridden as the best horse in front from gate six. He's demolished the field in back-to-back runs and should be able to hold his own in a higher grade. Punted late, Yellowfin ran on nicely to win a blanket finish for second after a wide run with cover in midfield from gate 11. He produced a much better run with a switch to the turf at his second career start. After firming in betting, Fabulous Eight stuck on well to just miss second after a prominent run four wide without cover. He's always a chance sprinting in Class Four over this course. Viva Mama just lost a placing by a bob of the heads after pressing the pace along the inside. It was another honest performance. Momentum Galaxy ran on late without menacing from near the rear. He's close to a bottom. Strive For Glory came on well after a wide trip with cover behind midfield to nearly earn a cheque. He'll be one to keep safe down in Class Five. Racing Fighter was doing his best work late after struggling to stay in touch at the rear. He's in the right grade but requires 1,200m. Sergeant Pepper found nothing when asked for an effort following a handy run.

Racing Incident Report

Race Seven: (718) - KENNEDY HANDICAP - Class 4 - 1000Meters



Just prior to being loaded into the barriers, GORGEOUS VITALITY threw its head back and in doing so struck its rider, Z Purton, on the nose.

This resulted in the start being delayed for some time as Z Purton received medical attention.

Those horses, which had been loaded into the barriers prior to the incident, were removed from the barriers whilst Z Purton was treated.

BLUSTITCH shifted out at the start and bumped the hindquarters of VIVA MAMA (K Teetan).

After the race, K Teetan reported that VIVA MAMA did not feel comfortable in its action in the early stages and it was not until after the 800 Metres when VIVA MAMA changed lead legs that the horse travelled more comfortably.

A veterinary inspection of VIVA MAMA immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.

SERGEANT PEPPER began only fairly, shifted in and bumped the hindquarters of INFINITY WIN.

FABULOUS EIGHT and RACING FIGHTER were crowded for room on jumping between CHUNGHWA JINGSHEN and YELLOWFIN which shifted in.

From the outside barrier, MOMENTUM GALAXY was steadied in the early stages and shifted across behind runners.

Approaching the 600 Metres, INFINITY WIN got its head on the side and lay in away from CHUNGHWA JINGSHEN, resulting in INFINITY WIN being very awkwardly placed outside the heels of BLUSTITCH.

SERGEANT PEPPER got its head up and made the turn after the 600 Metres awkwardly.

Near the 500 Metres, BLUSTITCH raced tight inside CHUNGHWA JINGSHEN which got its head on the side and lay in away from YELLOWFIN.

Passing the 300 Metres, STRIVE FOR GLORY was shifted to the inside of CHUNGHWA JINGSHEN to obtain clear running.

STRIVE FOR GLORY was then awkwardly placed close to the heels of COLOURFUL PRINCE passing the 200 Metres when improving into tight running between that horse and CHUNGHWA JINGSHEN.

Passing the 150 Metres, MOMENTUM GALAXY was directed to the inside of SERGEANT PEPPER to continue improving.

When MOMENTUM GALAXY shifted in, BLUSTITCH raced tight inside that horse passing the 100 Metres.

INFINITY WIN was unable to obtain clear running over about the final 125 Metres and because of this was not able to be properly tested.

Throughout the race, COLOURFUL PRINCE and FABULOUS EIGHT travelled wide and without cover.

A veterinary inspection of SERGEANT PEPPER and INFINITY WIN immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.

GORGEOUS VITALITY and YELLOWFIN were sent for sampling.

<2/6/2022 Additional Veterinary Reports>INFINITY WIN, which performed poorly, was examined by the Veterinary Officer who said at that time there were no significant findings.

INFINITY WIN was again examined by the Veterinary Officer at the stables of Trainer D A Hayes this morning.

He said at this time he noted the horse to be lame in its left front leg.

Before being allowed to race again, INFINITY WIN will be subjected to an official veterinary examination.
