Recap by phillip woo

Well-backed Plentiful settled one off behind midfield and quickened nicely to win going away 20m out for a third win from 17 starts and first in this grade after succeeding in two of four prior runs in Class Five. Parents' Love found one just too smart after skipping clear by three lengths 700m out dictating the run from gate nine. It was another solid run carrying 10 pounds more following a win. Favourite Champion Method just got up for third after a one-off trip from better than midfield. He continues to race well with placings in his past two of three starts following a win. Grand Nova came from last at the 600m with two wider out to just miss third prize money. He should be winning shortly if he remains in the grade. Happy United only plodded after a box-seat run. The big weight anchored him once again. Brave Joy made good ground late for sixth after making his run two from the rear. It was a better effort on his opening two Valley 1,200m runs. Allgreektome was rather one-paced after a handy run along the inside. It was a shade better effort on his recent form following a downgrade.

Racing Incident Report

Race Five : (442) - TSUEN WAN HANDICAP - Class 4 - 1000Meters



Horse No 2 HAPPY UNITED (H208) L Ferraris Lay in under pressure in the Home Straight, resulting in its rider L Ferraris changing his whip through to his right hand near the 200 Metres.

Horse No 3 ALLGREEKTOME (H007) T Marquand Bumped at the start.

When questioned, T Marquand stated that his instructions were to hold an on-pace position and lead if possible.

He said with the early stages of the event being run inside of standard time ALLGREEKTOME did not show sufficient pace to allow him to comply with the instructions and as a result settled further back than anticipated.

When questioned regarding his riding in the Home Straight, T Marquand stated that when positioned to the inside of NOTTHESILLYONE and behind HAPPY UNITED, he was unable to shift out and after the 300 Metres he then elected to shift to the inside of HAPPY UNITED to secure clear running.

He added as he commenced to shift in HAPPY UNITED lay in which resulted in him having to continue to shift in to that runner's inside in order to obtain clear running.

He said near the 200 Metres when HAPPY UNITED continued to shift in he contemplated shifting to its outside but when Jockey L Ferraris pulled his whip through to his right hand he was of the opinion that runner would straighten.

He said approaching the 150 Metres ALLGREEKTOME was then checked when disappointed for clear running to the inside of HAPPY UNITED when that runner continued to shift in.

T Marquand agreed with the Stewards that in retrospect his better option would have been to shift to the outside of HAPPY UNITED near the 200 Metres to secure clear running.

Horse No 4 HARMONY FIRE (E175) E C W Wong Near the 450 Metres was steadied when taken wider by PRECIOUS HILL which shifted out when giving ground.

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

Horse No 6 PARENTS' LOVE (H405) M Chadwick Sent for sampling post-race.

Horse No 8 PRECIOUS HILL (J475) C L Chau Bumped after travelling a short distance.

After the event, C L Chau stated that his mount raced wide and without cover for the majority of the event and lay out making the Home Turn before giving ground in the Home Straight.

He added, in his opinion, he felt there may be something amiss with PRECIOUS HILL.

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

Before being allowed to race again, PRECIOUS HILL will be subjected to an official veterinary examination.
