PHILIP WOO’S FORMLINE

Bienvenue returned from a nosebleed to fill the frame in back-to-back Valley 1,200m runs, including a rallying second behind Outgate from gate 11, before returning with blood in his trachea after a flat sixth as the favourite. He can rebound with a big run despite gate 10. Amazing Kid won despite a tough run on a wet track two runs ago for a fourth success from five consecutive C&D runs before staying on a close third to My Day My Way after a wide trip. He's in good order but will again get no favours from gate 12. Sports Legend wasn't himself when striking a wet track last start but was a winner from midfield and second after tracking the pace from three prior Valley 1,200m runs. Don't sell him short. Straight To Glory relished a switch to the Valley 1,200m for back-to-back wins before building on a one-out, one-back sixth at this level with an identically ridden second to Aurio. He will go close.

LUCKY PLANET (H235) rider reported that his mount was able to lead the event but failed to respond to his riding in the Home Straight. Post-race vet inspection did not show any significant findings - Race 533.

SPORTS LEGEND (H456) rider could offer no excuse for his mount's disappointing performance. Trainer advised he had been pleased with the horse leading into the race but could offer no explanation for the disappointing performance. Post-race vet inspection did not show any significant findings. Performance was considered disappointing comparing to its previous race starts. Has since performed to the satisfaction of the Stewards in a barrier trial and passed an official vet exam - Race 491.

AMAZING KID (K434) shifted out at the start and was bumped. Raced wide and without cover for the majority of the event - Race 553.

BIENVENUE (J490) shortly after the start made contact with a runner. Rider stated that his mount finished the race off only fairly in the Home Straight and, in his opinion, was reluctant to race in amongst other horses. After the race was examined by the vet who said an endoscopic exam showed a substantial amount of blood in the horse's trachea. Has since passed an official vet exam - Race 510.

MATTERS MOST (K154) crowded shortly after the start - Race 533.
