In the early stages of the Home Straight was shifted out to obtain clear running and near the 200 Metres became unbalanced when it made contact with HAPPY TANGO.
Horse No 2 ISLAND BREEZES (J479) L Ferraris Slow to begin and then shortly after the start was crowded between HAPPY BOYS and EVER SMART which shifted in slightly.
Horse No 3 GOLDEN FRIENDSHIP (K106) Z Purton Sent for sampling post-race.
Horse No 6 SKY SONG (J159) H Bowman Sent for sampling post-race.
Horse No 7 CHEER FOR SOUTH (H178) Y L Chung Bumped on jumping.
Over the final 50 Metres could not be ridden out when held up between HAPPY HORSE and CAMP FIRE.
A veterinary inspection immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.
Horse No 8 HAPPY HORSE (H061) E C W Wong A veterinary inspection immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.
Horse No 9 SANTORINI (J076) M L Yeung Bumped on jumping.
Raced wide and without cover for the majority of the event.

An endoscopic examination confirmed the horse to be a bleeder.
Horse No 11 HAPPY TANGO (D075) M Guyon Jumped only fairly.
Near the 400 Metres lay in and as a result was steadied to avoid CHEER FOR SOUTH.

As a result HAPPY TANGO then could not be ridden out for some distance thereafter when positioned close to SANTORINI.

Horse No 12 EVER SMART (J179) H Doyle Shortly after the start shifted in and was bumped.
Raced keenly in the early stages and for some distance leaving the 800 Metres was steadied away from HAPPY HORSE.
Recap by phillip woo
Favourite Golden Friendship travelled one off in third from gate 10 before hitting the front 100m out and edging clear for a maiden win at his 11th start. He appreciated the return to the level of a near course and distance win in September. Sky Song stayed on well for second after a prominent run one off the fence. It was a better effort following a gear change. Punted late Ever Smart ran on for third after a rails run from better than midfield. It was his best effort from five starts this term. Island Breezes made good ground late near the inside to just miss a placing after biding his time second last following a tardy start. It was an improved effort down in Class five. Happy Boys wove a run late near the inside to just miss the frame after a rails run from behind midfield. He should find his mark eventually in this grade. General Smart made good ground late after working to outside 150m out following a patient ride at the back despite gate one. It was a pleasing effort down in Class Five at his first run since April following a tendon injury. Happy Horse disappointed after tracking the speed on the fence.
