Recap by phillip woo

Favourite Savvy Nature eased back to travel fourth along the fence after leading early on, reclaimed the front 50m out and just held off the late surge of Ho Ho Feel by a whisker for a second win at his 20th start. Ho Ho Feel was given a good ride from a wide gate to quickly land a spot worse than midfield and one off the fence, swung the final bend with three wider out and finished willingly to make it very tight on the wire. Formula Won closed off strongly down the outside to nearly mow them down after a patient ride three deep at the back. Punted late Allcash was hustled to eventually lead at the 1,200m from a wide gate, straightened a half-length on top and was swamped inside the final 50m. Towering Storm was at the back of the pack early on, rolled forward 850m out to sit deep without cover in third at the 700m, ranged up on the leader approaching the final bend and came up one-paced over the final 100m. Expedite was getting going late with four wider out following a patient ride second from the rear. Sharp Sailor was another making ground late with one wider out following a deep run fourth from the rear. Green Dispatch only held his ground following a handy run with cover. Tom's Charm copped a check between runners when trying to rally four deep from midfield. Kiram made only a mild bid along the inside following a ground-saving run third from the back.

Racing Incident Report

Race Four: (768)-KINGS FALCON HANDICAP - Class 3 - 1800Metres

HO HO FEEL, which was fractious in the barriers, began awkwardly, shifted out at the start and bumped ALLCASH.

KIRAM was crowded for room on jumping between SHARP SAILOR and ANDOYAS which shifted out.

A short distance later, KIRAM was again bumped by ANDOYAS which was bumped by SAVVY NATURE which got its head on the side and shifted out.

EXPEDITE, FORMULA WON and TOWERING STORM were all steadied shortly after the start to obtain cover.

Passing the winning post on the first occasion, GREEN DISPATCH was momentarily steadied away from the heels of SAVVY NATURE.

For some distance after the 1100 Metres, SAVVY NATURE was steadied away from the heels of ALLCASH (Apprentice K K Chiong) which, after obtaining the lead, was then steadied.

Apprentice Chiong was warned against the practice of slowing the tempo too abruptly.

Passing the 1000 Metres, HO HO FEEL got its head up when awkwardly placed close to the heels of GREEN DISPATCH.

SHARP SAILOR, which was following HO HO FEEL, shifted out away from the heels of that horse, resulting in TOWERING STORM being taken wider and without cover.

TOWERING STORM was then allowed to improve its position to race outside the lead in a three wide position without cover after the 800 Metres.

After this, SHARP SAILOR got its head up on a number of occasions when awkwardly placed close to the heels of ANDOYAS.

Passing the 800 Metres, ANDOYAS was momentarily crowded for room between TOWERING STORM which was improving its position and GREEN DISPATCH which shifted out away from the heels of DASHING KING.

SHARP SAILOR, which was following ANDOYAS and continuing to prove difficult to settle, shifted out away from the heels of that horse.

For some distance in the early part of the Straight, TOM'S CHARM and GREEN DISPATCH raced tight as TOM'S CHARM shifted out into clear running.

Near the 80 Metres, TOM'S CHARM and GREEN DISPATCH bumped when crowded for room between TOWERING STORM and HO HO FEEL, both of which shifted ground.

During this incident, GREEN DISPATCH turned its head towards TOM'S CHARM.

This was brought to the attention of Mr A S Cruz, the trainer of GREEN DISPATCH.

A veterinary inspection of DASHING KING immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.

SAVVY NATURE and HO HO FEEL were sent for sampling.
