Recap by phillip woo

Blizzard covered a lot of ground second from the rear, was posted six deep at the 600m, swung the final bend widest out and let down nicely to get up in the shadows of the post to remain unbeaten in three outings this term despite a rise in trip. Raging favourite Thewizardofoz travelled fifth along the rails, advanced to the front 200m out and found one smarter on this day. Dashing Fellow was rushed to the front from gate six, wheeled in a half-length on top and kept on gamely for a placing. High And Mighty settled behind midfield and one off the rails, pulled out three deep at the 600m, peeled into the clear with two wider out and ran on reasonably well to fill the frame. Sichuan Dar was slow into stride, had two behind him coming to the final bend and finished up nicely two off the fence. He'll be winning with a bit more education and a step up to a mile. Racing Hero kept on evenly over the final 150m.

Racing Incident Report

Race Ten: (139)-ZENITH EXCELLENT HANDICAP - Class 2 - 1400Metres

At declaration time, D Whyte was declared as the rider of both FULL TALENT and AMBER DRAGON.

It was established that D Whyte had a firm commitment to ride FULL TALENT.

As such, the Stewards permitted K C Leung to be substituted as the rider of AMBER DRAGON.

For this declaration error, D Whyte was fined $2,000.

DASHING FELLOW began only fairly.

In the early stages, SICHUAN DAR and BLIZZARD were steadied and shifted across behind runners.

Approaching the 1100 Metres, MY LITTLE FRIEND commenced to travel very keenly and shifted out away from the heels of initially MCQUEEN and then BLIZZARD.

MY LITTLE FRIEND continued to over-race for some distance.

After the 900 Metres, FULL TALENT and GOLDEN SLEEP were left racing wide and without cover.

Near the 700 Metres, WINNING LEADER was awkwardly placed close to the heels of FULL TALENT.

Rounding the Home Turn, FULL TALENT and WINNING LEADER raced tight and then shortly after entering the Straight FULL TALENT was steadied when crowded for room between WINNING LEADER and GOLDEN SLEEP which shifted out.

Passing the 200 Metres, GOLDEN SLEEP shifted in and was awkwardly placed close to the heels of SMART MAN.

Passing the 100 Metres, MCQUEEN was awkwardly placed outside FULL TALENT which got its head on the side and lay out under pressure.

A veterinary inspection of WINNING LEADER immediately following the race did not show any significant findings, however, the horse was unable to be scoped due to being fractious.

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

BLIZZARD and THEWIZARDOFOZ were sent for sampling.

Adjourned Inquiry - 22 October 2015 Happy Valley Racemeeting - Race 8 (129) Apprentice H N Wong (FAT CHOY HONG KONG) pleaded guilty to a charge of careless riding [Rule 100(1)] in that between the 1200 Metres and the 1100 Metres he excessively reduced the tempo of the race which resulted in TWIN DELIGHT, which was following FAT CHOY HONG KONG, being hampered and LUCKY DOUBLE EIGHT, which was following TWIN DELIGHT, being severely checked.

In this incident, SICHUAN VIGOUR, GOODHEART SUCCESS and REGENCY KING were all badly hampered in consequence.

Apprentice Wong was suspended from riding in races for a period to expire on Thursday, 19 November 2015 on which day he may resume race riding (2 Hong Kong racedays).

The commencement of the suspension was deferred until after the Happy Valley racemeeting on Wednesday, 11 November 2015.

In assessing penalty, the Stewards took into consideration Apprentice Wong's relative inexperience and the overall circumstances of the incident.
