Recap by phillip woo

Punted late, Gallant Rock flew the gates to easily clear to the stands side from a low gate under the important 10-pound claimer Kei Chiong Ka-kei, drew further ahead at the 250m and kept on gamely for the win. St Yazin finished nicely one off the grandstand side after travelling behind midfield to grab second 100m out with money coming for him late. Diamond Bit came on nicely to grab third close to home after making his run second from the rear near the outside fence. Firming favourite Dancing Flames gave way 100m out after settling underneath Gallant Rock in the run to just photo out Fish N'Chips for fourth. Fish N'Chips made his run fourth along the outside fence, shifted into the open at the 300m and stayed on evenly without menacing. Secret Agent made only a mild bid after travelling fore of midfield in the centre of the course. Solar Gaga sat behind the leading pair one off the outside fence, was under pressure 400m out and was shuffled about while giving ground over the final 150m.

Racing Incident Report

Race Three: (474)-BOAT QUAY HANDICAP - Class 4 - 1000Metres

DIAMOND BIT, which was fractious in the barriers, put its head down as the start was effected and consequently lost ground.

RUGBY DIAMOND began awkwardly and lost ground.

Shortly after the start, INVISIBLE shifted out and bumped LEAN JOURNEY.

After the 200 Metres, ART OF SUCCESS was shifted out away from the heels of DANCING FLAMES.

After this, ART OF SUCCESS raced in restricted room when attempting to improve into tight running between DANCING FLAMES and SOLAR GAGA.

Then passing the 100 Metres, ART OF SUCCESS was checked when disappointed for running between DANCING FLAMES which initially shifted out marginally and SOLAR GAGA which shifted in.

As the Stewards were satisfied that ART OF SUCCESS had not properly established running between DANCING FLAMES and SOLAR GAGA, no further action was taken.

RUGBY DIAMOND, which was following ART OF SUCCESS, was hampered and shifted out away from the heels of that horse in consequence.

RUGBY DIAMOND was then unable to obtain clear running for the remainder of the race.

SOLAR GAGA was then shifted out to relieve the tightening to ART OF SUCCESS and shifted out abruptly and made contact with FISH N' CHIPS which shifted in marginally when brushed by DIAMOND BIT which, when finishing the race off strongly, improved into tight running between FISH N' CHIPS and ST YAZIN.

ART OF SUCCESS, which was following SOLAR GAGA, was steadied away from the heels of that horse in consequence.

Whilst this incident was one of some significance, the Stewards were not of the view that there was any rider error associated with the incident and accordingly no further action was taken.

Over about the last 150 Metres, LEAN JOURNEY was not able to obtain clear running and consequently was not able to be properly tested.

Approaching the 100 Metres, DIAMOND BIT was held up behind ST YAZIN.

Approaching the 50 Metres, PEACE ON EARTH was steadied when disappointed for running between DANCING FLAMES and SECRET AGENT which shifted out.

K C Leung (RESPECT) was fined the sum of $2,000 for raising his whip arm above shoulder height.

A veterinary inspection of KIDS AND WIN immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.

A veterinary inspection of SOLAR GAGA immediately following the race found that horse to have sustained a wound to the right hind leg.

Before being allowed to race again, SOLAR GAGA will be subjected to an official veterinary examination.

DANCING FLAMES, GALLANT ROCK and ST YAZIN were sent for sampling.
