Racing Incident Report
Race Ten: (120)-FRANCK MULLER EXCELLENT HANDICAP - Class 3 - 1400Metres
ENSURING began only fairly.HE WAS ME began awkwardly.
After the 1100 Metres, BERLINI proved difficult to settle.
After the 1000 Metres, BOY OH BOY and SUPREME FALCON travelled wide and without cover.
After the 600 Metres, PIKACHU and SUPREME FALCON raced tight as PIKACHU shifted out from behind SHORT SQUEEZE.
Rounding the Home Turn, SHORT SQUEEZE was crowded for room between INCREDIBLE FELLOW and PIKACHU, both of which shifted marginally.
After the 200 Metres, MODERN TSAR was awkwardly placed close to the heels of STRATHEARN which got its head on the side and shifted in under pressure.
MODERN TSAR was then held up behind STRATHEARN until near the 100 Metres.
Passing the 100 Metres, CHEERS JOY was awkwardly placed after being disappointed for running between PIKACHU and SUPREME FALCON.
In the Straight, SHORT SQUEEZE hung in and proved difficult to ride.
The performance of HE WAS ME, which finished tailed out, was considered unacceptable.
Before being allowed to race again, HE WAS ME will be required to perform to the satisfaction of the Stewards in an official barrier trial and be subjected to an official veterinary examination.
BERLINI, PIKACHU and DIVINE DIYA were sent for sampling.
Recap by phillip woo
Pikachu enjoyed a lovely run one-out, one-back, ridden along coming to the final bend to engage Supreme Falcon for the lead at the 350m, edged clear 120m out and just held off the late surge of Divine Diya for the win with an ideal step up in distance. Divine Diya bided his time fourth from the rear and one off the rails, shifted off heels with one wider out passing the 400m and finished up strongly. He wasn't suited by the pace. Supreme Falcon was posted without cover fore of midfield from a wide gate, advanced to challenge for the lead passing the 400m and grudgingly gave way when headed to just hold favourite Berlini for third. Berlini swung the final bend with two wider out and ran on steadily.
