Racing Incident Report
Race Eight : (621) - LIFTING EVERY YOUNG LIFE 1200M HANDICAP - Class 3 - 1200Meters
Horse No 2 LADY'S CHOICE (H155) R Kingscote Near the 450 Metres became unbalanced when crowded between TIN FOOK and PI LEGEND which shifted in when being checked.
A short distance later LADY'S CHOICE raced in restricted room between PI LEGEND which continued to shift in and AURORA PATCH which shifted out slightly.
Horse No 3 AURORA PATCH (K097) H Bowman Shifted out at the start and was bumped.
Sent for sampling post-race.
Horse No 4 MR ENERGIA (J239) J Orman Jumped only fairly.
From a wide barrier was shifted across behind runners in the early stages.
Horse No 6 PI LEGEND (L117) J Moreira On jumping was bumped by IGOR STRAVINSKY.
Near the 450 Metres was checked when crowded by the riderless ROMANTIC SON which shifted in.
A veterinary inspection immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.
Sent for sampling post-race.
Horse No 7 IGOR STRAVINSKY (K086) P N Wong On jumping was crowded between PI LEGEND and AURORA PATCH which shifted out.
Near the 450 Metres was steadied to avoid PI LEGEND.
Apprentice P N Wong stated that after jumping only fairly and being crowded at the start her mount was unable to hold a more forward position despite riding it along in the early stages.
She added that making the Home Turn her mount was disadvantaged when positioned behind PI LEGEND which was interfered with by the riderless horse at that point.
A veterinary inspection immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.
Horse No 8 POWER KOEPP (E301) M Chadwick M Chadwick reported that his mount hung in throughout the event.
M Chadwick, the rider of POWER KOEPP, 6th placegetter, was fined the sum of $10,000 for a breach of Rule 100(2) in that he failed to ride the horse out to the end of the race to the satisfaction of the Stewards.
Horse No 9 MUST GO (J133) K Teetan Sent for sampling post-race.
Horse No 10 BEAUTY GLORY (E459) Y L Chung Y L Chung stated that he was instructed to ride the horse where comfortable.
He said in the early stages BEAUTY GLORY was unable to show pace to go forward and as a result was obliged to settle back in the field.
Horse No 11 TIN FOOK (K167) A Atzeni A Atzeni stated that he was instructed to ride his mount, which was having its first race start for Trainer P F Yiu, in a forward position but not necessarily lead.
He said when his mount jumped well he was able to lead the event without having to unnecessarily pressure it to do so.
Horse No 5 BLAZING WIND (J157) Z Purton Withdrawn on raceday morning by order of the Stewards acting on veterinary advice (substantial amount of mucus in trachea on scoping).
Before being allowed to race again, BLAZING WIND will be subjected to an official veterinary examination.
Horse No 1 ROMANTIC SON (J537) H Y Yuen Prior to declaring weighed-in the Stewards gave consideration as to whether ROMANTIC SON had been denied a fair start.
After taking evidence from Trainer D A Hayes, Apprentice H Y Yuen and Starter Mr A Speechley the Stewards established that prior to the start being effected Apprentice Yuen was unseated from the saddle when ROMANTIC SON became fractious in the starting gates which resulted in Apprentice Yuen being dislodged from the horse as the start was effected.
As the Stewards were satisfied that Apprentice Yuen was not positioned at the saddle as the start was effected they determined the horse had been denied a fair start and as such was declared a non-runner.
Before being allowed to race again, ROMANTIC SON will be required to perform satisfactorily in a barrier trial.
