Racing Incident Report
Race Nine : (606) - ADVANCING CULTURE & SPORTS 1800M HANDICAP - Class 2 - 1800Meters
Horse No 1 ALL FOR ST PAUL'S (C517) Y L Chung A veterinary inspection immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.
Horse No 2 FLAMING RABBIT (H257) L Hewitson Jumped awkwardly.
Horse No 3 RUNNING GLORY (G010) B Thompson From the outside barrier was shifted across behind runners in the early stages.
Horse No 5 THE BEST PEACH (H139) K Teetan After the 200 Metres became held up behind SWEET ENCOUNTER and when being shifted to that runner's outside had difficulty obtaining clear running until approaching the 100 Metres.
Again became held up for clear running behind FLAMING RABBIT over the final 75 Metres and could not be fully tested to the finish of the event.
Horse No 6 CHILL CHIBI (H109) C L Chau When questioned regarding his riding and the reason his mount raced wide and without cover from the 1200 Metres, C L Chau stated that after obtaining a position with cover behind ALACRITY, CHILL CHIBI was then taken wider when THE BEST PEACH shifted out.
He said whilst there may have been an opportunity to obtain a trailing position behind THE BEST PEACH, he elected to remain racing wide and without cover from that point as the pace had eased.
He added that as CHILL CHIBI is one-paced, he then attempted to allow his mount to stride forward into the event, but as the pace increased from the 800 Metres, he was unable to do so which resulted in CHILL CHIBI being obliged to race wide and without cover for the majority of the event.
Sent for sampling post-race.
Horse No 7 C P BRAVE (E306) A Badel Bumped shortly after the start.
Sent for sampling post-race.
Horse No 8 NATURAL STORM (C461) A Hamelin Over the final 100 Metres lay out under pressure and proved difficult to ride.
Sent for sampling post-race.
Horse No 9 SWEET ENCOUNTER (G426) Z Purton Bumped on jumping.
After the race, Z Purton stated that with the pace of the event increasing from the 800 Metres, SWEET ENCOUNTER found it difficult to run out a strong 1800 Metres and gave ground over the final 100 Metres.
A veterinary inspection immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.
Horse No 13 TURIN MASCOT (H165) M F Poon From a wide barrier was shifted across behind runners in the early stages.
When questioned regarding his riding in the Home Straight and the reason he did not shift to the outside of SPEED DRAGON, M F Poon stated that on entering the Home Straight his mount was under pressure and not responding to his riding.
He said as a result he elected to continue to follow CHILL CHIBI the favourite into the event with a view to then shifting to that runner's outside should his mount improve.
He added that approaching the 200 Metres TURIN MASCOT commenced to respond to his riding and when he then improved to the inside of SPEED DRAGON, he was unable to shift to that runner's outside which resulted in TURIN MASCOT being held up for clear running over the final 150 Metres.
Whilst the Stewards found the explanations provided by Jockey Poon were reasonable in the circumstances, he was advised, wherever possible, he should avail himself with opportunities to ensure that his mounts obtain clear running.
Recap by phillip woo
C P Brave got up 120m out after a rails run from midfield to ring up a third win from nine starts for his new trainer this season. He's enjoying a fine campaign and might have the tools to win another going forward. Natural Storm ran on nicely near the inside to grab second in deep stretch after making his run five back on the fence. He was able to brush off two ordinary runs after a 2,000m win in January. Flaming Rabbit stayed on nicely for third after moving to the front 400m out following a pace-stalking run. It was a good effort. Favourite Chill Chibi just failed with one wider out to fill a placing after getting posted three wide without cover run from behind midfield. It was a good effort considering the circumstances. Speed Dragon made ground late down the outside for fifth after turning the final bend three from the rear. The Best Peach couldn't get a clear crack at them over the final 200m from behind midfield. He should have finished closer. Alacrity just plodded after a one-off trip from better than midfield. Packing Hurricane couldn't lift after a prominent run. The rise in class took its toll.
