Racing Incident Report
Race Ten: (663) - COLOANE HANDICAP - Class 3 - 1600Meters
As the start was effected, HAPPY TOGETHER became fractious, resulting in HAPPY TOGETHER jumping awkwardly and its rider, Z Purton, becoming unbalanced and HAPPY TOGETHER then losing ground.
After travelling a short distance, RUNNING AHEAD commenced to race keenly.
Passing the 1500 Metres, UNIVERSAL HORIZON lay out, resulting in RUNNING AHEAD improving to the inside of UNIVERSAL HORIZON and then having to be checked when UNIVERSAL HORIZON shifted back in, which resulted in INVINCIBLE MISSILE being steadied when crowded by UNIVERSAL HORIZON.
The Stewards determined the racing manners of RUNNING AHEAD were the reason for the incident occurring.
Approaching the 900 Metres, WAR WEAPON, which was inclined to race keenly, was steadied to avoid THE BEST PEACH (H Bowman) which shifted in when not fully clear.
H Bowman was advised to exercise more care.

He further stated that he was reluctant to shift to the outside of RUNNING AHEAD as he was given the option of improving between runners and he felt this would afford his mount the best opportunity to finish the race off.
Trainer R Gibson confirmed the instructions issued.
A veterinary inspection of HAPPY TOGETHER immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.
After the race, M F Poon (ETERNAL BLOOM) stated that it was not his instruction to lead, but from barrier 1, after commencing well his mount led the event without being pressured to do so.

Recap by phillip woo
Punted late Universal Horizon just held off the late surge of early favourite The Best Peach after hitting the front near the 100m following a wide with cover run from midfield for an overdue win. He appreciated the wet ground after knocking on the door in six of his opening seven outings this term. The Best Peach dashed nicely to finish a close second after getting caught wide from behind midfield. It was another fine effort carrying top weight following a win. So We Joy found a couple too good in deep stretch after poking his head in front 150m out from midfield. It was a surprise result on turf but he loves wet ground. Entrusted ran on nicely to add further value to the quartet after a wide trip towards the rear. It was a better effort after failing to menace in four prior starts. Run Run Buddy weakened over the last 100m after claiming the front rounding the final bend following a pace-stalking run from gate 14. It wasn't a bad effort despite a rise in trip. Happy Together was next best after making his run at the rear following a slow start. He hasn't disgraced but has proven costly in his past four starts.
