Racing Incident Report
Race Three : (233) - GREAT BRITAIN HANDICAP - Class 4 - 1650Meters
Horse No 1 HAPPY UNIVERSE (J533) C Keane Slow to begin.
Horse No 2 LUCKY TOUCH (J203) Z Purton In the early stages raced keenly when being steadied to obtain cover behind MIGHTY STRENGTH.
When questioned regarding his riding, Z Purton stated that after following MIGHTY STRENGTH in the event, when that runner shifted out approaching the 450 Metres he elected to improve to its inside to obtain clear running.
He said after being briefly held up on the Home Turn he was able to place his mount under full pressure on straightening where LUCKY TOUCH ran on well.
Sent for sampling post-race.
Horse No 3 MIGHTY STRENGTH (H450) H Doyle Jumped awkwardly, shifted out a short distance later and made contact with DURHAM STAR.
Horse No 4 CORLEONE (J426) H Bowman Sent for sampling post-race.
Horse No 5 HAILTOTHEVICTORS (J508) C Y Ho Jumped only fairly and from a wide barrier was shifted across behind runners in the early stages.
After the event, C Y Ho reported that his mount is still immature and finished the race off in a one-paced manner and, in his opinion, would be suited by being stepped up in distance for its next race start.
A veterinary inspection immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.
Horse No 6 DURHAM STAR (E082) L Ferraris Bumped shortly after the start.
On the Home Turn was steadied when momentarily crowded by LUCKY TOUCH which shifted to the inside of ORIENTAL TYCOON to obtain clear running.
Horse No 7 ORIENTAL TYCOON (J112) M F Poon The performance of ORIENTAL TYCOON, which finished tailed out, was considered unacceptable.
Before being allowed to race again, ORIENTAL TYCOON 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 9 YEAH BUDDY (J430) M Chadwick Trainer W K Mo confirmed the instructions were to ride the horse in a midfield position as YEAH BUDDY had been racing keenly when ridden forward at its previous race starts.
Horse No 10 CALIFORNIA MOXIE (J131) Y L Chung After the event, Y L Chung stated that the instructions were to ride his mount with cover in the early stages.
He said when CALIFORNIA MOXIE was caught wide, he elected to allow his mount to stride forward to avoid racing wide and without cover and was able to obtain a position outside the lead after the 600 Metres.
Horse No 12 YOUTH POWER (H358) M L Yeung Sent for sampling post-race.
Recap by phillip woo
Punted late, Youth Power got up in the concluding stages to deny Corleone after settling on the rail in midfield to notch a second win and first in the grade from his past three starts. He's racing well and can win another. Corleone gave a cheeky sight in front after clearing to the lead 1,350m out from a middle gate. The switch to the Valley nearly worked the oracle after producing two encouraging runs at Sha Tin. California Moxie stayed on well for third after rushing forward after a wide trip travelling midfield from gate 11 to track the leader 500m out. It was a solid first effort at the Valley. Favourite Lucky Touch just won a battle for fourth after settling one off the rail behind midfield. It was another good effort carrying more weight following a win. Mighty Strength had his chance after a one-out, one-back run but only plugged on one-paced over the last 150m. He has no excuse at his first attempt over the Valley 1,650m. Yeah Buddy ran on all right to finish next best after making his run three from the rear. It was a slightly better performance. Star Line ran on without threatening.
