Racing Incident Report
Race Six: (016)-SHEK O HANDICAP - Class 4 - 1650Metres
VARA PEARL was slow to begin.SPIRIT SOARING shifted out at the start and inconvenienced NEW SPEED AHEAD.
CHANCELLOR shifted in at the start and hampered LIGHTNING PEGASUS.
From the outside barriers, MEDIC MASTER and VITAL PRINCE were shifted across behind runners in the early stages.
CHANCELLOR lost its right hind plate after the 1100 Metres.
Making the turn after the 600 Metres, VARA PEARL was taken wider by NEW SPEED AHEAD which shifted out.
In the early part of the Straight, NEW SPEED AHEAD lay out under pressure, resulting in its rider, C Schofield, changing his whip into his left hand near the 200 Metres.
After this, NEW SPEED AHEAD continued to race with its head on the side and lay out.
When questioned, K C Ng stated that having been instructed to lead on CHANCELLOR if possible, he rode his mount aggressively in the early stages in order to take up a forward position.
He said after passing the winning post on the first occasion he was left racing in a three wide position outside SPARKLING SWORD and he continued to niggle at his mount in an attempt to clear that horse.
He said, despite being urged along for a considerable distance after the 1200 Metres, CHANCELLOR did not show sufficient speed to clear SPARKLING SWORD which was travelling strongly to his inside and as a result CHANCELLOR was left racing wide and without cover throughout the race and then in the Straight gave ground.
TRIUMPHANT DRAGON and VARA PEARL were sent for sampling.
Recap by phillip woo
Triumphant Dragon settled beautifully one off the fence in fifth, rounded the final bend three deep and stretched out nicely carrying top weight to get up 50m out for a fifth career win. Vara Pearl settled third from the rear along the fence after missing the kick, pushed widest out coming to the final bend and finished willingly to get up in deep stretch for second as the firming favourite. It was a big run and he remains one to follow. Sparkling Sword kept on reasonably well for a placing after sitting just outside the leader Mister Marc one off the fence. Mister Marc was given an easy time on the lead after finding the front 1,450m out and only gave way 100m out. Great Toplight made a steady bid four deep after a one-off trip in midfield. Lightning Pegasus only held his ground after making his run underneath Great Toplight. Go-Getter made a mild bid after settling fourth from the rear. Spiring Soaring was weak after holding the fence on the back of the speed.
