Recap by phillip woo

Terrific Master sat one off with cover behind midfield, swung the final bend with two wider out and let down well to win going away 150m out for a second straight win. Winnam was unhurried fourth from the rear, shifted into the open with two deeper out at the 300m and closed well to finish level for second Happilababy, who stayed on well near the inside following a rail's run in midfield in a vastly-improved second-up run and he'll be winning shortly. Top Ace came on widest out from near the back. Good Good View made some ground near the inside after travelling third from the rear without menacing. Laugh Out Loud rushed forward to sit handy coming to the final bend, led 250m out and peaked on his run 50m out.

Racing Incident Report

Race Ten: (179)-PANASONIC THERMO VENTILATOR HANDICAP - Class 3 - 1600Metres

Trainer P O'Sullivan was fined the sum of $3,000 for presenting PEARL FURU to race without a tongue tie, part of its declared gear.

The tongue tie was fitted to PEARL FURU on arrival at the Start.

On arrival at the Start, ROYAL PARTNER, which made contact with a rail when proceeding to the Start, was examined by the Veterinary Officer who said that the horse was suitable to race.

HAPPPILABABY bounded in the air at the start, then shifted in abruptly and made heavy contact with the hindquarters of ROYAL PARTNER, causing both horses to become unbalanced.

K C Ng (HEROIC GURU) pleaded guilty to a charge of careless riding [Rule 100(1)] in that approaching the 1300 Metres he failed to make sufficient endeavours to prevent that horse from shifting in when not clear of TERRIFIC MASTER, causing that horse to be crowded for room and in turn taken in onto GIANT TURTLE which as a result lost the running to which it was rightfully entitled and was checked.

K C Ng was suspended from riding in races for a period to expire on Monday, 14 December 2015 on which day he may resume race riding (3 Hong Kong racedays).

The commencement of the suspension was deferred until after the Happy Valley racemeeting on Wednesday, 2 December 2015.

Making the turn after the 900 Metres, ROYAL PARTNER was steadied away from the heels of TERRIFIC MASTER which got its head on the side and shifted out away from the heels of GLACIER BLUE when travelling keenly.

WINNAM, which was following, got its head up when being steadied away from the heels of TERRIFIC MASTER in consequence.

After this, TERRIFIC MASTER continued to prove difficult to settle and was awkwardly placed close to the heels of GLACIER BLUE.

At the entrance to the Straight, HAPPILABABY was shifted in away from the heels of HEROIC GURU.

GOOD GOOD VIEW, which was following, was eased away from the heels of HAPPILABABY in consequence.

HEROIC GURU was held up for clear running in the early part of the Straight.

Approaching the 300 Metres, GOOD GOOD VIEW was checked away from the heels of PEARL FURU which was giving ground.

Passing the 300 Metres, ROYAL PARTNER was shifted to the outside of TOP ACE after being disappointed for running between that horse and WINNAM, both of which shifted marginal ground.

After being held up for clear running, KIRAM was shifted in away from the heels of HEROIC GURU near the 150 Metres.

For the majority of the race, LAUGH OUT LOUD travelled wide and without cover.

After the race, N Rawiller stated that RED DANCER performed disappointingly after racing in a good position throughout the race.

A veterinary inspection of RED DANCER immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.

A veterinary inspection of HEROIC GURU immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.

KIRAM, TERRIFIC MASTER, WINNAM and HAPPILABABY were sent for sampling.
