Racing Incident Report
Race Ten : (583) - BARKER HANDICAP - Class 2 - 1400Meters
Horse No 1 HEALTHY HAPPY (D435) K C Leung Jumped awkwardly, shifted out, got its head up and as a result made contact with DROMBEG BANNER.
Horse No 2 NEW FOREST (K094) R Kingscote R Kingscote reported that from a wide barrier he was instructed to ride the horse in a conservative manner in the early stages.
Trainer M Newnham confirmed those instructions.
Horse No 3 JOHANNES BRAHMS (K014) C L Chau A veterinary inspection immediately following the race found that horse to have bled from both nostrils.
Before being allowed to race again, JOHANNES BRAHMS will be required to perform satisfactorily in a barrier trial and be subjected to an official veterinary examination.
Horse No 4 WINNING OVATION (K350) A Badel When questioned regarding his riding A Badel stated that he was given no specific instructions other than to settle his mount where comfortable.
He said whilst WINNING OVATION jumped well he had observed a number of runners to his inside including DROMBEG BANNER and HEALTHY HAPPY were showing intent to go forward and race in the lead.
He said when these runners showed superior pace in the early stages he elected to remain racing to their outside other than contesting the lead.
He added after travelling some distance he contemplated allowing WINNING OVATION to go forward to cross runners to his inside but he was concerned that the rider of DROMBEG BANNER would contest the lead and for this reason he elected to remain racing wide and without cover for the majority of the event where his mount was travelling comfortably.
After considering his explanation the Stewards found the tactics adopted by Jockey Badel were reasonable in the circumstances.
Sent for sampling post-race.
Horse No 5 DROMBEG BANNER (H117) H Y Yuen Bumped on jumping.
Shortly after the start shifted out and made contact with AKASHVANI.
Horse No 6 MUGEN (H338) H Bowman From a wide barrier was shifted across behind runners in the early stages.

Horse No 10 AKASHVANI (K234) Z Purton Bumped shortly after the start.
When questioned Z Purton stated that after travelling a short distance he elected to shift to the inside of DROMBEG BANNER with the intention of holding a position one-off as he had expected JOHANNES BRAHMS to shift to the rail.
He said when JOHANNES BRAHMS held its position one-off and DROMBEG BANNER then shifted in slightly he was obliged to check his mount near the 1100 Metres when crowded between JOHANNES BRAHMS and DROMBEG BANNER.
Recap by phillip woo
Mugen made his run at the rear but came with a late burst near the inside to mug Winning Ovation in the shadows of the post for a fifth win and first in a long time from 25 starts. Winning Ovation was just pipped on the wire after leading 100m out following a prominent run wide without cover the entire trip. It was a huge run in defeat after three consecutive wins. Early favourite Six Pack found a couple just too good after a box-seat run. He has held his form very well in four runs after a win in January. Old-timer Healthy Happy wouldn't go down without a fight after dictating the run from gate three. He rarely produces a bad run over 1,400m. Drombeg Banner gradually faded after getting outside the leader 850m out under a 10lb claimer. He's at his best when allowed to flow along in the lead.
