Recap by phillip woo

Favourite Crimson Flash settled prominently one off the fence and took control 60m out out to provide a fifth win on the night for trainer Mark Newnham. He's now won three of four starts over the Valley 1,200m. Brave Star ran on nicely to grab second after a rails run from behind midfield. It was another honest performance over the Valley 1,200m. Young Champion finished strongly through the centre to just miss second after getting hampered to have one behind him at the 1,000m. He's trending towards a win with placings in three consecutive runs across both tracks. Romantic Son found a few just too good after surging to the lead near the inside 150m out following a box-seat run. It was a run with merit after back-to-back wins in a lesser grade. Son Pak Fu made headway late for sixth after making his run fourth last from gate two. He will be looking forward to a drop into Class Three. Colourful King was next best but had nothing go right after getting squeezed out to last at the jump and blocked for a clear run until the 100m. Chateauneuf didn't have much left in the tank over the final 100m after a speed-tracking run.

Racing Incident Report

Race Seven : (532) - DAISY HANDICAP - Class 2 - 1200Meters



Horse No 1 COLOURFUL KING (K227) Z Purton On jumping was crowded between KAHOLO ANGEL and YOUNG CHAMPION, both of which shifted ground.

Shortly after COLOURFUL KING was then severely checked when crowded between YOUNG CHAMPION which was taken out by BRAVE STAR when that runner was racing tight to the outside of MAGIC CONTROL which also shifted out and KAHOLO ANGEL which was taken in by CHATEAUNEUF which shifted in slightly before being corrected by its rider L Hewitson.

Between the 250 Metres and the 100 Metres was badly held up for clear running.

Horse No 2 MAGIC CONTROL (J333) C L Chau C L Chau stated that with blinkers being applied for the first time his mount commenced well and improved to the lead in the early stages without being pressured to do so.

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

Horse No 3 KAHOLO ANGEL (H216) H Bowman On jumping shifted in slightly, was bumped on the hindquarters and became unbalanced.

A short distance later KAHOLO ANGEL was steadied when crowded by CHATEAUNEUF.

Horse No 4 BRAVE STAR (G268) C Y Ho Jumped only fairly.

Shortly after the start was checked when crowded between YOUNG CHAMPION and MAGIC CONTROL which shifted out slightly.

Sent for sampling post-race.

Horse No 5 CHATEAUNEUF (J219) L Hewitson After travelling a short distance shifted in, resulting in its rider L Hewitson having to stop riding and correct his mount.

Horse No 6 CRIMSON FLASH (K173) A Atzeni Near the 700 Metres was eased to avoid CHATEAUNEUF (L Hewitson) which shifted in when not quite clear.

L Hewitson was advised to exercise more care.

Sent for sampling post-race.

Horse No 8 YOUNG CHAMPION (J195) K Teetan Shifted out on jumping and made contact with COLOURFUL KING.

A short distance later YOUNG CHAMPION was checked when crowded between BRAVE STAR and KAHOLO ANGEL.

Between the 200 Metres and the 150 Metres made contact with SON PAK FU on a number of occasions when being shifted to the outside of CRIMSON FLASH when CRIMSON FLASH shifted out slightly.

K Teetan stated that after being badly crowded at the start his mount then raced keenly and near the 1000 Metres got its head up when being checked to avoid SON PAK FU.

Noted to have lost its left front plate after the race.

Horse No 9 GUSTOSISIMO (J303) Y L Chung Y L Chung stated that the instructions were to hold a more forward position.

He said despite riding his mount along in the early stages it did not show sufficient pace to do so and as a consequence settled further back than intended.

He added in the Home Straight GUSTOSISIMO failed to respond to his riding.

A veterinary inspection immediately following the race revealed that the horse was displaying an irregular heart rhythm.

Before being allowed to race again, GUSTOSISIMO will be required to perform satisfactorily in a barrier trial and be subjected to an official veterinary examination.

Horse No 10 SON PAK FU (G265) A Badel Prior to declaring weighed in the Stewards gave consideration if there were grounds for a protest/objection against YOUNG CHAMPION being declared 3rd placegetter due to YOUNG CHAMPION making contact with SON PAK FU on a number of occasions between the 200 Metres and the 150 Metres.

When the Stewards were satisfied that the contact was initially due to both runners shifting ground and then CRIMSON FLASH shifting out slightly, resulting in YOUNG CHAMPION being taken out, they declined to lodge a protest/objection when they were satisfied that there were not sufficient grounds to do so.
