Racing Incident Report
Race Seven: (278)-MARS HANDICAP - Class 3 - 1650Metres
On arrival at the Start, C Y Ho, the rider of FLYING CHAPARRAL, expressed concern regarding the horse's action.FLYING CHAPARRAL was examined by the Veterinary Officer who after the necessary consultations said that the horse was suitable to race.
As the start was effected, WILLIE INVICTUS refused to jump on terms with the field and as a consequence missed the start by a considerable distance.
Before being allowed to race again, WILLIE INVICTUS will be required to perform satisfactorily in a barrier trial.
From wide barriers, EXPECTATOR and TERRIFIC MASTER were steadied and shifted across behind runners soon after the start.
Passing the 1200 Metres, FULL GLORY was steadied away from the heels of ROYAL PARTNER due to the slow tempo.
Approaching the 900 Metres, SUPEROI was awkwardly placed close to the heels of GO GO WIN.
After the race, the Veterinary Officer reported that GO GO WIN had sustained an overreach injury to the outside of the left hind heel.
Due to the continuing slow pace, AMBITIOUS CHAMPION was checked away from the heels of SUPEROI approaching the 800 Metres.
GRIFFINDOR, which was following AMBITIOUS CHAMPION, was shifted out away from the heels of that horse, resulting in TERRIFIC MASTER being taken wider.
GRIFFINDOR was then ridden along and improved around the field to assume the lead approaching the 600 Metres.
After being held up for clear running passing the 300 Metres, ROYAL PARTNER was obliged to alter course to the inside of the heels of ULTIMATE GLORY (H W Lai) when that horse shifted out at the 150 Metres.
H W Lai was advised to ensure that he makes more endeavour to keep his mounts straight in similar circumstances.
From the 200 Metres until approaching the 100 Metres, GO GO WIN had difficulty establishing clear running between GRIFFINDOR and FLYING CHAPARRAL.
SUPEROI, ULTIMATE GLORY and AMBITIOUS CHAMPION were sent for sampling.
Recap by phillip woo
Ultimate Glory eased back to enjoy a soft run on the back of a slow pace after crossing to lead early on from a wide gate, reclaimed the front 150m out and kept up a good gallop for an upset win. Ambitious Champion finished willingly with one wider out after travelling one off the fence beyond midfield to grab second 20m out in his first outing of the season for his new trainer. Favourite Superoi couldn't really mount a serious challenge with two wider out following a one-off run in midfield. He had no excuse. Royal Partner settled three back along the fence after jumping alertly, straightened three deep, ducked to the fence at the 100m and stayed on all right thereafter to fill a Quartet spot. Griffindor took off on the back of a slow pace at the 800m to find the front 600 out, cornered a length on top and was yielding ground 100m out. Go Go Win was handily-ridden one off the fence, rounded the final bend four deep and was only one-paced after pulling off the heels of Griffindor 150m out. Terrific Master settled third from the rear, swung the final bend with two wider out and made some ground without menacing. Willie Invictus never mounted a challenge after tacking on at the rear 1,100m out following a poor break.
