Racing Incident Report
Race Seven : (173) - TOKYO HANDICAP - Class 2 - 1650Meters
Horse No 1 TELECOM FIGHTERS (D482) Y L Chung Sent for sampling post-race.
Horse No 2 KEEFY (G306) K C Leung Whilst the Stewards were satisfied that the riding of K C Leung, 6th placegetter, over the concluding stages did not affect the horse's finishing position, he was nonetheless reminded of his obligation to ensure that he rides his mounts out fully to the finish of the race.
Horse No 3 MEANINGFUL STAR (E230) L Hewitson Sent for sampling post-race.
Horse No 4 HELENE FEELING (H215) C L Chau Jumped only fairly and then was crowded by KEEFY.
Horse No 5 TRUE LEGEND (D047) K H Chan Raced keenly in the early stages and for some distance near the 1100 Metres got its head up when being restrained from KEEFY.
When questioned, K H Chan stated that with slow pace of the event in the middle stages, TRUE LEGEND raced keenly.
He said approaching the 600 Metres when the pace increased, TRUE LEGEND came under pressure and despite his efforts to maintain his position to the inside of TAJ DRAGON, he was unable to do so and as a result TAJ DRAGON was able to shift in and take a position one-off behind KEEFY at that stage.
Noted to have lost its right hind plate after the race.
A veterinary inspection immediately following the race found that horse to have sustained minor abrasions to its right hind fetlock and pastern.
Horse No 6 ERIMO (E193) K Teetan After the 1200 Metres improved to the inside of TRUE LEGEND due to the slow pace and then was checked to avoid that runner.
Continued to race keenly in the middle stages.
Horse No 7 EVERYONE'S DELIGHT (D029) A Badel From a wide barrier was shifted across behind runners in the early stages.
A veterinary inspection immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.
Horse No 8 TAJ DRAGON (H164) Z Purton Raced wide and without cover until near the 550 Metres.
Sent for sampling post-race.
Horse No 9 GALAXY WITNESS (G110) C Y Ho Jumped only fairly.
Recap by phillip woo
After a perfectly judged ride in front setting a slow pace, Telecom Fighters kept finding to ring up a seventh career win over the Valley 1,650m. He was fitter third up and relished the move to claimer Angus Chung Yik-lai. Meaningful Star stayed on well for second after a dream run. He relished a return to the Valley but is better suited over the 1,800m. Galaxy Witness just won a three-horse battle for third after a rails run from midfield. It was another honest effort. Helene Feeling ran on well after getting posted wide without cover from behind midfield. It was a good run. Taj Dragon stayed on well to just finish out of the top four after a prominent run wide without cover. He had an excuse. Keefy faded after tracking the slow pace of the winner. It was a shade better effort following a switch to the Valley. Hameron only beat a few ridden stone cold from gate 10. He wasn't suited by the tempo of the race. Erimo had an excuse after getting shuffled back to near last from midfield rounding the final bend. True Legend was a non factor after a one-out, one-back run. He's a dirt horse and requires rating relief.
