Recap by phillip woo

Drifting in the betting, Golden Chopsticks settled one off the rails in midfield, rounded the final bend with two wider out and let down nicely to collar leader Wonderful Fighter by a whisker for the win. Wonderful Fighter set an even tempo on the front, cornered a length on top and kept on gamely to be a clear-cut second with money coming for him late. King's Steed plugged on three deep following a box-seat run to secure a placing. He was suited by a drop back in distance. Pakistan Baby was ridden for luck third from the back and one off the rails from a wide gate, swung the final bend deepest out and finished nicely to get into a Quartet spot. Favourite Sea Ruby landed a nice spot one off behind midfield from a wide gate, switched to the rails at the 200m and ran on steadily without menacing. Spurs On was nicely positioned one off in fifth, straightened four deep and did not offer much when popped the question. Fun Tapestry made his run along the rails ahead of midfield, stayed to the inside upon straightening and was not picking up under the whip when having to steady 200m out. Snitzel Kid eventually cleared runners to sit one off in second, cornered five deep and was stopping 150m out in a disappointing run despite a return to Class Four.

Racing Incident Report

Race Two: (470)-FORTRESS HILL HANDICAP (Sec2) - Class 4 - 1200Metres

SPURS ON began awkwardly, shifted out and bumped EASTERN PROMISE.

From wide barriers, FAST AND FURIOUS and PAKISTAN BABY were shifted across behind runners in the early stages.

Also from a wide barrier, SEA RUBY was steadied in the early stages and shortly after the start was bumped by EASTERN PROMISE which shifted out.

Passing the 200 Metres, FUN TAPESTRY momentarily raced in restricted room inside SEA RUBY which was shifted to the inside of KING'S STEED to obtain clear running.

Also passing the 200 Metres, PAKISTAN BABY shifted in abruptly across the heels of GOLDEN CHOPSTICKS.

Approaching the 100 Metres, SNITZEL KID got its head on the side and lay out under pressure.

Throughout the race, EASTERN PROMISE travelled wide and without cover.

A veterinary inspection of SNITZEL KID and FUN TAPESTRY immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.

SEA RUBY, GOLDEN CHOPSTICKS and WONDERFUL FIGHTER were sent for sampling.
