Racing Incident Report
Race Three: (705) - KWAI SING HANDICAP - Class 4 - 1650Meters
On jumping, DAZZLING FELLOW shifted in and made heavy contact with SPLENDID LIVING.
DAZZLING FELLOW then struck the heels of SPLENDID LIVING and fell, causing its rider, M Dee, to be dislodged and resulting in DAZZLING FELLOW following the field riderless for the remainder of the event.
Subsequently M Dee was examined by the Chief Medical Officer and passed fit to fulfil his remaining race riding engagements.
After the race, DAZZLING FELLOW was found to have sustained a laceration to its left front cannon.
ASIAN ONE jumped awkwardly and shortly after the start raced in restricted room between SPLENDID LIVING and TURIN WARRIOR which shifted out and away from ARIEL.
In the early stages, MILLENNIUM FALCON raced keenly.
GET THE MONIES hung out throughout the middle stages and making the Home Turn ran wide after being taken out slightly by SPLENDID LIVING.
As a result, FORTUNE PRESIDENT, which was following GET THE MONIES and shifting to that runner's outside, was hampered and taken wider.
Apprentice Y L Chung (FIERY FLYING ) pleaded guilty to a charge of careless riding [Rule 100(1)] in that near the 1400 Metres he permitted his mount to shift in when not clear of PERFECT TO GREAT, resulting in that horse being checked and losing the running to which it was rightfully entitled.
In the circumstances, Apprentice Chung was suspended from riding in races for a period to commence on Wednesday, 14 June 2023 and to expire on Monday, 26 June 2023 on which day he may resume race riding (3 Hong Kong racedays).
In addition, Apprentice Chung was fined $30,000.
After the race, K Teetan (ARIEL) reported that his mount raced a little keenly in the run and under its top weight did not finish the race off.
A veterinary inspection of ARIEL immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.
Also after the race, the Veterinary Surgeon reported that PERFECT TO GREAT was lame in its left front leg with a laceration to the left front heel.
Before being allowed to race again, PERFECT TO GREAT will be subjected to an official veterinary examination.
A veterinary inspection of FIERY FLYING immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.
SPLENDID LIVING and GET THE MONIES were sent for sampling.
Recap by phillip woo
Favourite Splendid Living was too good after surging to the lead following a speed tracking run outside Ariel for a second win this campaign. He deserved that after seconds in his past three starts. Sensationally backed, Get The Monies just nipped Fortune President for second after chasing the speed one off in third. It was clearly his best run from eight starts following a rise in trip. Fortune President ran on steadily to make it very close for second after a one-off run from midfield. He was able to back up a last-start win. Asian One closed off reasonably well near the inside from behind midfield to fill a quartet spot. He has been racing consistently well all season long on both surfaces. Old-timer Noble Steed ran on steadily from midfield on the fence to finish next best. Perfect Peach made some ground without threatening from behind midfield. He was having his first run over this course following a bleeding attack in December. Perfect To Great got too far back in the run after getting hampered early on. Dazzling Fellow dumped his rider after stumbling out of the gate.
