Recap by phillip woo

Well-backed Scores Of Fun split rivals near the 100m to grab victory 80m out after a rails run in midfield. He won nicely last start in Class Three and finally got the monkey off his back at his fifth try in this grade. Favourite Drops Of God had every chance in the boxseat but stuck on well to just hold off Winning Method for second. He's close to another win. Winning Method finished nicely near the outside after travelling wide with cover in midfield from a wide draw. He's a winner waiting to happen after filling a placing in three of four starts this term. Keep You Warm kept plugging away stalking the leader Sight Success one off the fence from a wide gate to just miss a placing. It was a good run in defeat up in grade and distance after back-to-back 1,000m wins. Sight Success was stopping 100m out after clearing to the lead 1,000m out from a tricky gate. He couldn't cope with another six-pound penalty following a second straight win. Sparkling Dragon wasn't properly tested over the last 100m after a wide run with cover in midfield. He had an excuse. Harmony Fire was handy without cover three deep the entire trip from an awkward gate. He's not smart enough to be giving rivals an advantage in the run.

Racing Incident Report

Race Eight: (204) - BRUNTSFIELD HANDICAP - Class 2 - 1200Meters



TRANSCENDENT, which was fractious in the barriers, began awkwardly, bumped the inside of its barrier stall and lost ground.

TRANSCENDENT was then hampered by WISHFUL THINKER which shifted out.

SIGHT SUCCESS began awkwardly and stumbled on jumping.

DECRYPT was crowded for room shortly after the start between SIGHT SUCCESS and HARMONY FIRE which was racing tight inside KEEP YOU WARM.

From the outside barrier, GOOD LUCK FRIEND was shifted across behind runners in the early stages.

Approaching and passing the 800 Metres, WINNING METHOD travelled keenly and was awkwardly placed close to the heels of HARMONY FIRE which after the 800 Metres was left racing wide and without cover.

Passing the 300 Metres, DROPS OF GOD shifted in towards the running rail and became unbalanced.

After the 300 Metres, as SCORES OF FUN improved into tight running inside SIGHT SUCCESS, SIGHT SUCCESS shifted in, resulting in SCORES OF FUN being taken in and bumping DROPS OF GOD passing the 200 Metres.

Also after the 300 Metres, SPARKLING DRAGON was shifted to the inside of BE READY.

Over the final 75 Metres, SPARKLING DRAGON was unable to obtain clear running and consequently was not able to be tested over the concluding stages.

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

SCORES OF FUN and DROPS OF GOD were sent for sampling.
