Recap by phillip woo

After travelling last and 15 lengths off the leader at one point, the well-backed Charity Gain timed things perfectly to get up in the concluding stages for a second Valley 1,800m win from six starts this term. Can't Go Wong found one just too good after recovering from a check 450m out to lead 150m out. He relished a return to the course and distance of a win. Favourite Me Time ran on steadily through the middle to place third after a one-off trip from behind midfield. It was another honest showing over the Valley 1,800m. Good Good kept on fourth best without threatening after a box-seat run. It was a good showing on the back of a solid pace. Dragon Delight ran on steadily for fifth after settling one off in midfield from gate 10. He continues to hold his own and has finished in the mix in four consecutive Class Fours. Dragon Star was on his tippy toes 100m out after going too hard in front from gate one. Highland Rahy was running on empty near the 100m after settling one-out, one-back from gate nine. Arthur's Kingdom was retreating quickly 600m out after rushing forward to prompt the pace from gate 12.

Racing Incident Report

Race Two : (348) - LAMBETH HANDICAP - Class 4 - 1800Meters



Horse No 1 CHARITY GAIN (H431) H Bowman Jumped only fairy and from a wide barrier was shifted across behind runners in the early stages.

Sent for sampling post-race.

Horse No 2 CAN'T GO WONG (H087) A Badel Leaving the 500 Metres was checked to avoid ARTHUR'S KINGDOM when that runner was giving ground quickly.

Sent for sampling post-race.

Horse No 3 HAPPY UNIVERSE (J533) K C Leung Leaving the 600 Metres was checked to avoid ARTHUR'S KINGDOM as that runner commenced to give ground.

Horse No 4 HIGHLAND RAHY (J298) A Atzeni After the event, A Atzeni stated that his mount did not run out the 1800 Metres due to the pace of the race being run inside of standard time during the early and middle stages.

A veterinary inspection immediately following the race found that horse to have sustained a small laceration to the right hind leg.

Horse No 6 JUBILATION (G029) M Chadwick Near the 250 Metres was taken wider by CHARITY GAIN which shifted out to improve.

Horse No 7 DRAGON STAR (H128) K Teetan When questioned, K Teetan stated that his instructions were to ensure that his mount led the event.

He said as a result he rode his mount along in the early stages to comply with his instructions.

He said after making the first turn near the 1200 Metres, whilst he was aware the pace of the event was being run inside of standard time, when DRAGON STAR was pressured by ARTHUR'S KINGDOM, this resulted in the pace of the race being run at a quicker tempo than he would have liked.

Trainer P C Ng confirmed the instructions were to lead on the horse.

Horse No 9 ME TIME (J074) Z Purton In the middle stages raced keenly and for some distance after the 700 Metres was steadied away from DRAGON DELIGHT.

Sent for sampling post-race.

Horse No 10 HAPPY HERO (G322) L Ferraris After the event, L Ferraris reported that the instructions were to ride his mount conservatively in the early stages.

Horse No 11 ARTHUR'S KINGDOM (E194) H T Mo When questioned, H T Mo stated that his instructions were to lead on the rail as ARTHUR'S KINGDOM has a tendency to hang in and races best when able to find the rail.

He said in the early stages when caught wide he was obliged to make use of his mount to cross runners to his inside but was able to obtain a position outside DRAGON STAR near the 1200 Metres.

When questioned regarding his riding between the 1200 Metres and the 900 Metres, H T Mo stated that ARTHUR'S KINGDOM hung in through that section of the race and as a result he was obliged to encourage his mount forward to maintain a position one-off the rail.

He said near the 800 Metres ARTHUR'S KINGDOM came under pressure before giving ground noticeably thereafter.

The Stewards advised Jockey Mo that in the circumstances he had made an error between the 1200 Metres and the 900 Metres by continuing to encourage his mount forward after having to make use of it in the early stages to cross runners to his inside.

Trainer Y S Tsui confirmed the instructions were to lead on the horse.

A veterinary inspection immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.

The performance of ARTHUR'S KINGDOM, which finished tailed out, was considered unacceptable.

Before being allowed to race again, ARTHUR'S KINGDOM will be required to perform to the satisfaction of the Stewards in consecutive barrier trials and be subjected to an official veterinary examination.
