Racing Incident Report
Race Five : (528) - AMBITIOUS DRAGON HANDICAP - Class 3 - 1400Meters
Horse No 2 POPE CODY (K313) J Orman Raced wide and without cover for the majority of the event.
A veterinary inspection immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.
Horse No 3 TAMRA BLITZ (G237) H Bowman A veterinary inspection immediately following the race found that horse to be lame in its right front leg.
Before being allowed to race again, TAMRA BLITZ will be subjected to an official veterinary examination.
Horse No 4 ARMOUR WAR EAGLE (J039) L Hewitson When questioned, L Hewitson stated that after the blindfold was removed from the horse in the starting gates it was given full opportunity to jump but reared as the start was effected.
He said as a result ARMOUR WAR EAGLE settled back in the field.
When questioned regarding his riding in the early part of the Home Straight, L Hewitson stated that when following EVERYONE'S STAR he elected to remain racing behind that runner as he was of the opinion that he would not be able to secure clear running between POPE CODY and TAMRA BLITZ.
He said when POPE CODY commenced to give ground near the 300 Metres he was able to improve to that runner's inside and obtain clear running to the outside of EVERYONE'S STAR near the 200 Metres where ARMOUR WAR EAGLE finished the race off well.
Having considered his explanation in respect of his riding in the Home Straight the Stewards were satisfied that the option that Jockey Hewitson had taken was reasonable in the circumstances.
Sent for sampling post-race.
Horse No 5 RAGGA BOMB (K162) D McDonogh Bumped at the start.
In the middle stages raced keenly.
For some distance near the 500 Metres got its head up when being steadied away from SUNNYVALE and hung out making the Home Turn.
Horse No 6 EVERYONE'S STAR (K172) J Moreira After being crossed by SOLID IMPACT near the 800 Metres raced keenly for some distance thereafter.
After the event, J Moreira stated that the instructions were to obtain a position midfield with cover.
He said after commencing well and when caught wide in the early stages he elected to continue to improve forward to avoid covering additional ground.
He said as a result EVERYONE'S STAR raced in a more forward position than intended.
Horse No 7 SOLID IMPACT (E447) A Badel After the event, A Badel confirmed that from the outside barrier his instructions were to take up a forward position due to the perceived lack of early pace in the event.
Trainer D J Hall confirmed the instructions and the reasons as to why such instruction were issued.
Horse No 8 SMART TRIO (J538) B Thompson Hung out making the Home Turn.
Horse No 9 ENDEARED (H161) C Williams Sent for sampling post-race.
Horse No 10 BEAUTY VIVA (K155) A Atzeni Jumped only fairly and shortly after the start was crowded by TAMRA BLITZ which shifted in slightly.
Despite being ridden along in the early stages BEAUTY VIVA then did not show sufficient pace to hold a more forward position.
Near the 200 Metres was held up for clear running when endeavouring to obtain a narrow run between SOLID IMPACT and EVERYONE'S STAR.
Horse No 11 MIGHTY COMMANDER (J360) R Kingscote Bumped at the start.
Recap by phillip woo
Endeared settled prominently on the fence, hit the lead 50m out and just held off favourite Armour War Eagle by a lip for a third win from 25 starts and first in Class Three. Armour War Eagle wove a run late near the inside to just miss after jumping in the air and spotting them three lengths at the start. He continues to hold his condition well following a win. Well-backed late Beauty Glory grudgingly gave way after dictating the run from gate seven. He's building towards a win. Star Mac ran on nicely down the outside for fourth after making his run one from the rear. It was a good effort, but he is better suited over a mile or 1,800m. Mighty Commander launched late for fifth after making his run wide toward the rear. It was his one of his better efforts in Class Three. Everyone's Star only plodded when asked for an effort after a prominent run. He's still acclimatising but hasn't been hopeless on his three local starts. Beauty Viva just held his ground when asked for an effort following a rails run from midfield.
