Horse No 9 BLESSED NATION (J292) M L Yeung Near the 200 Metres attempted to obtain a run when there was doubtful room and as a result made contact with GLORIOUS SUCCESS, resulting in GLORIOUS SUCCESS being turned in and becoming unbalanced.
In this incident, BLESSED NATION was then steadied when crowded between GLORIOUS SUCCESS and SUPERB BOY which shifted out and away from JOHANNES BRAHMS.
The Stewards found that the initial contact from BLESSED NATION (M L Yeung) was the principal reason for the incident occurring.
M L Yeung was advised to exercise more care and to ensure that there is sufficient room when he is improving into runs.

Recap by phillip woo
Favourite Johannes Brahms travelled in the box seat and was badly held up for a run until the 200m, but speared through a gap to take control 50m out for a first local win at his third start. Beauty Crescent ran on nicely for second after a one-off trip from behind midfield. He has trouble winning but has placed in half his 24 starts. Glorious Success finishing well for third after recovering from a slow start to settle midfield on the fence. He's a winner waiting to happen with placings in both local runs. Lucy In The Sky found a few too good after moving to the lead 250m out following a speed-tracking role from gate 11. He hasn't disgraced but has found things harder carrying big weights. Ka Ying Superb gradually faded after easily finding the lead from gate 12. He's given a decent sight on the speed in both outings this term and will be a force if he can find his way into Class Four. Blessed Nation ran on well for sixth after getting hampered between runners 150m out when finally gaining a run near the 200m travelling behind midfield.
