Racing Incident Report
Race Two : (718) - SHA TIN HOI HANDICAP - Class 4 - 1200Meters
Horse No 1 COURIER ALADDIN (J387) Z Purton When questioned Z Purton stated that he was given no specific instructions but COURIER ALADDIN settled back in the field when it jumped only fairly and did not show early pace.
When questioned regarding his riding in the Home Straight he said soon after straightening he elected to shift to the outside of LUCKY ARCHANGEL when that runner shifted in slightly but then near the 350 Metres became held up behind SUPER UNIVERSE.
He said as a result he then leaving to the 200 Metres shifted to the inside of SUPER UNIVERSAL and LUCKY ARCHANGEL where he was able to secure clear running thereafter.
A veterinary inspection immediately following the race which included an endoscopic examination showed a substantial amount of mucus in the horse's trachea and also found the horse to be a "roarer??which had previously been reported.
Horse No 2 AMAZING VICTORY (G123) K C Leung Between the 350 Metres and the 200 Metres was held up for clear running before being shifted to the inside of COURIER ALADDIN where it obtained clear running at the 200 Metres.
Horse No 4 EMBLAZON (K122) C L Chau Bumped approaching the 1000 Metres.
Approaching the 350 Metres was shifted to the outside of RIDING HIGH to continue into clear running.
Horse No 5 FLOWING RICHES (K293) M L Yeung Sent for sampling post-race.
Horse No 6 STRAIGHT TO GLORY (K340) H Bowman Shortly after the start was crowded between GLACIATED and LUCKY ARCHANGEL which shifted out slightly.
Horse No 7 SUPER UNIVERSAL (K303) L Hewitson Raced wide and without cover for the majority of the event.
Horse No 8 MATTERS MOST (K154) E C W Wong Sent for sampling post-race.
Horse No 10 GLACIATED (K272) A Atzeni Bumped at the start.
Approaching the 1000 Metres, when racing keenly, shifted out and away from STRAIGHT TO GLORY and made contact with EMBLAZON.
After the event A Atzeni reported that his mount had some difficulty obtaining clear running near the 300 Metres.
He said when the run presented GLACIATED responded only fairly to his riding thereafter and, in his opinion, may be suited by being stepped up in distance for its next race start.
A veterinary inspection immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.
Horse No 12 RIDING HIGH (J403) M Chadwick Jumped only fairly and shortly after the start was then checked between SIGHT DREAMER which jumped awkwardly and shifted out and EURO ROCKS which shifted in.
Raced very wide and without cover for the majority of the event.
After the event M Chadwick reported that his instructions were to lead but after being checked at the start settled further back than intended.
Horse No 13 EURO ROCKS (H153) Y L Chung Shifted in at the start, made contact with RIDING HIGH and became unbalanced.
After the event Y L Chung reported that the intention was to hold a more forward position but his mount did not show sufficient pace in the early stages to do so.
Horse No 14 SIGHT DREAMER (J542) K Teetan Jumped awkwardly, shifted out, made contact with RIDING HIGH and lost ground.
In the early stages raced keenly and near the 900 Metres got its head up when being steadied away from GLACIATED.
Recap by phillip woo
Matters Most drew clear after hitting the front 200m out following a prominent run on the fence for a first win at his 11th local start. It was clearly his best performance to date with a move to blinkers. Favourite Flowing Riches battled away for second after chasing the speed one off the fence from gate 10. The debutant lived up to his trials and should be winning a race soon. Specked late, Ka Ying Resilience weakened late after dictating the pace from gate nine. It was a return to form after a second on his seasonal reappearance in November. Lucky Archangel ran on steadily for fourth after a rails run from midfield. It was another honest effort. Turf Phoenix made some ground near the inside for fifth after a patient ride four from the rear. He's still trying to find a rating bottom, but it was an improved performance.
