Racing Incident Report
Race Four: (060)-MAGNOLIA HANDICAP - Class 5 - 1200Metres
Soon after the start, OPTIMISM was steadied when crowded for room between NOVEL START and MIGHTY GAINS which shifted out.INTELLECTUAL GLIDE jumped in at the start and made contact with PROPEL REPEL.
From wide barriers, FORMULA GALORE and GREAT SPEED were steadied in the early stages and shifted across behind runners to obtain cover.
KING OF SMARTS lost its left hind plate near the 1100 Metres.
INTELLECTUAL GLIDE travelled very keenly in the early and middle stages and consequently was obliged to travel wide and without cover throughout the event.
After the 250 Metres, NOVEL START and INTELLECTUAL GLIDE bumped on several occasions as they were giving ground.
Close to the finishing line, MIGHTY GAINS raced in restricted room to the inside of GIDDY GIDDY (O Doleuze) which shifted in under pressure.
O Doleuze was advised to make more effort to keep his mounts straight.
GREAT SPEED, SHINING CHAMPION and FORMULA GALORE were sent for sampling.
Recap by phillip woo
Shining Champion drew clear after hitting the front 100m out following a ground-saving run in midfield to live up to a solid first-up run this term. He's always had the ability and should be able to hold in his own up in grade. Formula Galore kept on very well after covering ground behind midfield from a wide gate to finish a clear second. He's clearly good enough to win a race at this level and should be competitive off a lightweight back in Class Four from a good draw. Oriental Fantasia grudgingly gave way after getting softened for the lead by Giddy Giddy. His speed is always going to be an asset in this grade. Favourite Great Speed was doing some fine work after travelling third from the rear from a wide gate to make it close for a placing. He's running well and will be winning shortly.
