Racing Incident Report
Race Three : (31) - BIG WAVE BAY HANDICAP - Class 4 - 1800Meters
Horse No 1 NOISY BOY (J536) Z Purton When questioned regarding the disappointing performance Z Purton stated that his instructions were to go forward.

He said after obtaining the lead NOISY BOY was then disadvantaged by being pressured by CAN'T GO WONG which was positioned to his outside.
He added that when placed under pressure in the Home Straight NOISY BOY failed to respond to his riding and gave ground over the final 200 Metres.
He said NOISY BOY had pleased him in a barrier trial on 1 September 2026 and its most recent track work on 14 September 2026.
Trainer C H Yip advised that NOISY BOY had pleased him leading into the race and agreed with Jockey Purton that the horse had been disadvantaged by having to be made use of to go forward in the early stages and then also being pressured in the lead.
A veterinary inspection immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.

Before being allowed to race again, NOISY BOY will be required to perform to the satisfaction of the Stewards in a barrier trial and be subjected to an official veterinary examination.

Horse No 3 SERANGOON (H296) B Avdulla Slow to begin.
A veterinary inspection immediately following the race found that horse to be lame in its left front leg.
The performance of SERANGOON, which finished tailed out, was considered unacceptable.
Before being allowed to race again, SERANGOON will be required to perform to the satisfaction of the Stewards in a barrier trial and be subjected to an official veterinary examination.
Horse No 6 ROSEWOOD FLEETFOOT (J524) K Teetan The Stewards deferred the declaration of weighed-in as they were of the opinion that an incident had occurred over the concluding stages which cast doubt on whether ROMANTIC FANTASY should be declared the winner.
Subsequently K Teetan, rider of the second placed, ROSEWOOD FLEEFOOT lodged a protest/objection against ROMANTIC FANTASY being declared the winner alleging interference over the final 50 Metres.
After considering the evidence the Stewards established that near the 100 Metres ROSEWOOD FLEETFOOT shifted out slightly before being straightened by its rider.
They further found that near the 50 Metres ROSEWOOD FLEETFOOT and ROMANTIC FANTASY made slight contact due to ROMANTIC FANTASY shifting in slightly.
However, having regard to the manner in which both horses finished the race off, the Stewards could not be comfortably satisfied that had the contact not occurred ROSEWOOD FLEETFOOT would have finished in advance of ROMANTIC FANTASY and therefore the protest/objection was overruled and weighed-in was declared on the numbers semaphored by the Judge.
Sent for sampling post-race.

Recap by phillip woo
Green-lamped Romantic Fantasy peeled three deep travelling just worse than midfield 600m out and just won a ding-dong battle over post-time favourite Rosewood Fleetfoot. He was able to add to his good form from last season. Rosewood Fleetfoot was just nipped on the wire after briefly hitting the front 80m out though the centre following a rails run from behind midfield. It was another solid effort after ending last season with back-to-back 2,200m wins. Star Brose ran on well near the inside to just take third after making his run fourth last from gate seven. He was able to back up a near win at his final start over 2,000m. Old-timer Romantic Laos was doing his best work late down the outside to just miss a placing after a patient ride third last from gate three. He was able to build on a closing fifth last Wednesday over a mile trip. Family Fortune made inroads late for fifth after travelling second last from gate 11. It was a pleasing effort at his first start this term. Jumbo Steps faltered to finish a distant sixth after a box-seat run. Sensationally backed Ocean Impact just plodded after a one-off trip from midfield.
