Racing Incident Report
Race Six: (697) - CALIFORNIA MEMORY HANDICAP - Class 4 - 1400Meters
GOAL ORIENTED was withdrawn on 27.5.23 by order of the Stewards acting on veterinary advice (lame right fore) and was replaced by Standby Declared Starter BRAVE AND GOLD (K C Leung).
Before being allowed to race again, GOAL ORIENTED will be subjected to an official veterinary examination.
COMMANDING MISSILE jumped only fairly and then was bumped by SINGAPORE SUNSHINE which, after jumping awkwardly, was taken in by HIGH CLOUD.
BRAVE AND GOLD also jumped only fairly and was brushed by CIRCUIT MIGHTY which shifted in.
BRAVE AND GOLD was then shifted across behind runners in the early stages.
Shortly after the start, URBAN TRIUMPH shifted out and bumped YELLOWFIN.
From the outside barrier, DAILY TROPHY was shifted across behind runners in the early stages.
URBAN TRIUMPH lost its right front plate in the early stages.
After the 800 Metres, DRAGON STAR was left racing wide and without cover.
Near the 700 Metres, SUPER WINNER, which was inclined to race keenly, shifted out before being corrected by its rider, Apprentice E C W Wong.
When questioned, Apprentice Y L Chung (MASTER HERO) stated that his instructions were to hold a more forward position, but despite riding his mount along in the early stages to comply with his instructions, MASTER HERO did not show sufficient pace to do so.
He added that near the 1000 Metres he elected to obtain a position with cover behind SINGAPORE SUNSHINE to avoid racing wide as his mount was not travelling well enough to hold a more forward position.
He said after improving to the outside of BRAVE AND GOLD making the Home Turn, MASTER HERO was taken out slightly when BRAVE AND GOLD was taken out by SINGAPORE SUNSHINE.
He further stated that once balanced at the top of the Home Straight, MASTER HERO ran on strongly under hard riding and, in his opinion, may be better suited by being stepped up in distance at its next race start.
Following the race, B Avdulla (URBAN TRIUMPH) stated that his mount stopped quickly under pressure in the Straight and he could offer no excuse for the disappointing performance.
A veterinary inspection of URBAN TRIUMPH immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.
The performance of URBAN TRIUMPH, which finished tailed out, was considered unacceptable.
Before being allowed to race again, URBAN TRIUMPH will be required to perform to the satisfaction of the Stewards in a barrier trial and be subjected to an official veterinary examination.
After the race, A Badel (WATCH BUDDY) reported that his mount, in his opinion, did not run out a strong 1400 Metres.
Also after the race, L Ferraris (DRAGON STAR) reported that his mount made an abnormal breathing noise during the event.
A veterinary inspection of DRAGON STAR immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.
A veterinary inspection of SINGAPORE SUNSHINE immediately following the race which included an endoscopic examination showed a substantial amount of blood in the horse's trachea.
Before being allowed to race again, SINGAPORE SUNSHINE will be subjected to an official veterinary examination.
A veterinary inspection of DAILY TROPHY and COMMANDING MISSILE immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.
YOUNG HORIZON, CIRCUIT MIGHTY and YELLOWFIN were sent for sampling.
Recap by phillip woo
Early favourite Circuit Mighty got up in the dying stages to just deny Yellowfin after slotting one-out, one-back from a wide draw to remain perfect in three rides under Zac Purton in Class Four this term. He'll again have to play the handicapper's game in Class Three now. Yellowfin found one just too good after claiming the lead under the 200m following a box seat run. He keeps promising without winning. River Views gave a cheeky sight on the speed after leading 1,200m out. The step back to 1,400m suited him. Post-time favourite Young Horizon just grabbed fourth after a one off run better than midfield. It was a pleasing effort up in grade following a win. Master Hero came with a bold move from last to just miss fourth prize money. He's well rated off his current mark. Watch Buddy made some ground without threatening from behind midfield. The step up to 1,400m didn't have the desired result after filling the frame in his past two of three starts.
