Recap by phillip woo

Newcomer Winston's Lad swung the final bend with two wider out after travelling deep with cover worse than midfield and kept coming with every stride to get up 120m out with a bit of money for him late. Connections will have a bit of fun with this one. Healthy Joyful weaved a run near the inside after travelling one off the fence behind midfield to run down firming favourite So Fast for second. So Fast was pestered after clearing to the front from a wide gate by Ovett, cornered a length on top and grudgingly gave way. Harbour Nova ran on reasonably well six deep following a one-off run in midfield to give the Quartet some value in an encouraging debut. Wah May Baby had every chance four deep following a one-out, one-back run and was only one-paced over the final 200m. Chevalier Star only held his ground when popped the question following a box-seat run. Both Lucky made some ground widest out with menacing after switching off at the rear from a wide gate.

Racing Incident Report

Race Nine: (178)-PANASONIC BALL FAN HANDICAP - Class 3 - 1200Metres

WINGOLD got its head up on jumping.

Shortly after the start, HARBOUR NOVA raced tight inside WAH MAY BABY which shifted in after being bumped by WINSTON'S LAD.

From a wide barrier, SHOWING CHARACTER was shifted across behind runners in the early stages.

At the 1000 Metres, HEARTS KEEPER was bumped by WAH MAY BABY which was taken out by CHEVALIER STAR.

Near the 700 Metres, HARBOUR NOVA commenced to prove difficult to settle and shifted out away from the heels of WAH MY BABY, resulting in HEARTS KEEPER being taken wider.

COURAGEOUS BROTHER, which was following, got its head up when being checked away from the heels of HARBOUR NOVA in consequence.

COURAGEOUS BROTHER continued to prove difficult to settle for some distance after this and got its head up on a number of occasions when awkwardly placed close to the heels of HARBOUR NOVA which was racing close to the heels of WAH MAY BABY.

At the same stage, YO-YO DA was awkwardly placed close to the heels of CHEVALIER STAR.

Passing the 400 Metres, HEARTS KEEPER was taken out by HARBOUR NOVA which shifted out to obtain clear running.

After the 200 Metres, HARBOUR NOVA shifted in away from the heels of WINSTON'S LAD.

For the majority of the race, HEARTS KEEPER travelled wide and without cover.

When questioned, V Cheminaud stated that in accordance with his instructions he shifted BOTH LUCKY behind runners from the outside barrier to obtain a position on the rail.

He said in the middle stages of the race he was following WINGOLD and that horse shifted ground on a number of occasions in front of BOTH LUCKY.

He said he was initially reluctant to shift to the outside of WINGOLD making the turn after the 900 Metres to improve its position as he did not want to be taken unnecessarily wide.

He said therefore after the 700 Metres he positioned BOTH LUCKY to improve to the inside of WINGOLD, however, as he did this, WINGOLD shifted back in which resulted in BOTH LUCKY being baulked for running.

He added after the 600 Metres he shifted BOTH LUCKY to the outside of WINGOLD so as to obtain a position closer to the bulk of the field.

V Cheminaud was advised that his explanation would be reported, however, wherever possible, he should ensure that he does not set his mounts too great a task.

SO FAST, WINSTON'S LAD and HEALTHY JOYFUL were sent for sampling.
