Racing Incident Report
Race Two : (670) - CHOI WAN HANDICAP - Class 3 - 1000Meters
Horse No 1 STELLAR EXPRESS (J186) H Bowman Jumped awkwardly, shifted out and made contact with LOOKING BRIGHT.
Approaching the 100 Metres was bumped by HEALTHY HEALTHY.
Horse No 2 ETERNAL FORTUNE (K010) E C W Wong Making the Home Turn was hampered when taken wider by SEASONS WIT which shifted out to improve.
Near the 100 Metres made contact with SEASONS WIT due to both runners shifting ground.
Sent for sampling post-race.
Horse No 3 HEALTHY HEALTHY (H203) K C Leung Jumped only fairly and shortly afterwards was crowded between ETERNAL FORTUNE and PARENTS' LOVE, both of which shifted ground.
Approaching the 150 Metres endeavoured to obtain a narrow run between STELLAR EXPRESS and PARENTS' LOVE.
When PARENTS' LOVE then shifted out slightly HEALTHY HEALTHY made contact with STELLAR EXPRESS and was held up for clear running over the final 150 Metres.
As a result HEALTHY HEALTHY could not be ridden out to the finish of the event.
Horse No 4 SEASONS WIT (H223) L Hewitson Near the 100 Metres made contact with ETERNAL FORTUNE due to both runners shifting ground.
Sent for sampling post-race.
Horse No 5 LOOKING BRIGHT (K315) Z Purton Bumped shortly after the start.
After the event Z Purton reported that his mount, which was having its first race start in Hong Kong, would derive benefit from tonight's experience as it is still immature.
A veterinary inspection immediately following the race which included an endoscopic examination showed a substantial amount of mucus in the horse's trachea.
Horse No 6 FLYING TING LOK (K228) H Bentley After the event H Bentley reported that the instructions were to go forward but despite riding his mount along in the early stages it did not show sufficient pace to do so.
Horse No 8 STAR PERFORMER (K207) M Chadwick Withdrawn on 13.5.24 by order of the Stewards acting on veterinary advice (lame right fore).
Before being allowed to race again, STAR PERFORMER will be subjected to an official veterinary examination.
Recap by phillip woo
Backed late to jump favourite, Seasons Wit settled midfield on the rails and quickened nicely to win going away 60m out for a first win from 12 starts this term. He was a well-rated runner and did put the writing on the wall when second last start. Eternal Fortune found one too good after a prominent run. It was a return to form with the claim well utilised. Stellar Express just claimed long-time leader and early favourite Parents' Love for third after a box-seat run. He's given a good sight to place in both Valley 1,000m runs. Parents' Love succumbed late after spearing straight to the lead from a wide draw. It was another honest performance this season. Healthy Healthy had no clear run at them near the inside over the last 100m after making his run at the rear from a wide draw. He should have finished closer. Flying Ting Lok made some ground from near last but did only beat one in the seven-runner field. He's still acclimatising. Newcomer Looking Bright finished eased down after a speed-tracking run from gate three with money for him late in betting.
