Horse No 3 DURHAM STAR (E082) Z Purton Was held up for clear running from the 500 Metres to the 300 Metres.
Was sent for sampling post-race.
Horse No 4 E TALENT (H310) M L Yeung Jumped only fairly and then raced tight for a short distance after the start.
Near the 1400 Metres was bumped by YEABOI.
The performance of E TALENT was considered unacceptable.
Before being allowed to race again, E TALENT will be required to perform to the satisfaction of the Stewards in a barrier trial and be subjected to an official veterinary examination.
A veterinary inspection immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.
Horse No 5 LEGION OF MERIT (D419) C Y Ho Raced wide and without cover in the early and middle stages and as a result was allowed to stride forward from the 1000 Metres to take up a position closer to the rail.
Horse No 6 YEABOI (G372) Y L Chung Near the 1400 Metres shifted in, made contact with the rail and became unbalanced.
Passing the 1200 Metres shifted in and brushed the running rail.
A veterinary inspection immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.
Horse No 7 LITTLE FAIRY (H206) A Atzeni Was bumped at the start.
From a wide barrier was shifted across behind runners in the early stages.
For some distance near the 200 Metres raced tight to the outside of BEAUTY MISSION when that runner shifted out slightly and near the 100 Metres was obliged to be corrected by its rider to avoid the heels of BEAUTY MISSION.
Horse No 8 FEARLESS FIRE (B085) L Hewitson Was sent for sampling post-race.
Horse No 10 HAPPY HUNK (H101) K C Leung Was bumped at the start.
When questioned regarding his mount settling in a more forward position, K C Leung stated that he was instructed to hold a midfield position.
He said after commencing well and when caught wide in the early stages, he allowed HAPPY HUNK to stride forward to avoid covering additional ground and as a consequence settled more forward than what he had intended.
Trainer K L Man confirmed the instructions issued.
Horse No 11 BEAUTY MISSION (G098) M Chadwick From the outside barrier was shifted across behind runners in the early stages.
Approaching the 900 Metres commenced to race keenly and was steadied away from SUPER BABY.
Recap by phillip woo
Early favourite June Planet travelled third last but quickened nicely to take control 100m out and make it two wins on the bounce. He should hold his own up in grade under a light weight. Fearless Fire closed well after his midfield run one off the fence but was no match for the winner. He is always a chance over this Happy Valley trip and appeared fitter following his unplaced starts first and second up. Beauty Mission settled last from the outside gate and encountered traffic problems early in the home straight before running on well to fill a placing. He built on his positive performance over 1,400m last month. Durham Star ran on steadily from midfield to fill the frame. He continues to cost punters dearly. Little Fairy ran on late down the outside to finish the next best. It was an OK effort on his first run beyond 1,200m. Legion Of Merit took out from his wide in-running position to lead rounding the final bend but ran out of gas with 100m remaining. It was a better effort. Yeaboi disappointed his backers after getting all the favours in the box seat. His win in June is beginning to look like a fluke.
