Recap by phillip woo

Favourite Fortune Giggles eased back to travel in the one-out, one-back position at the 1,100m, angled out five deep for a clear run at the 250m and finished well to get up 100m out for a first win at his 14th outing with a drop in class. Holy Star settled one off the fence in midfield, rounded the final bend near six deep and closed off well to make it close. Bliss Cartel settled behind midfield one off the fence, straightened five deep and was getting to the line well despite a tendency to drift out under the whip. Telecom Prince was getting going late down the outside after being ridden for luck at the tail of the field from a wide gate. Plunged late, My Cup Overflows enjoyed the box-seat run, pulled out three deep for a clear run at the 220m, moved to third 80m out and was swamped for a placing. Punted late, Forest Colours was yielding ground 100m out.

Racing Incident Report

Race Two: (358)-RUSSIAN PEARL HANDICAP - Class 5 - 1600Metres

TRIPLE KING began awkwardly and shifted in, resulting in the horse having to be steadied away from the heels of SUCCESSFUL LEADER which shifted out.

This caused TRIPLE KING to lose ground.

FORTUNE GIGGLES shifted in at the start and bumped DRAGON HARMONY.

BLISS CARTEL and TRIBAL GLORY bumped on jumping.

From a wide barrier, TELECOM PRINCE was steadied in the early stages and shifted across behind runners.

Approaching the 1500 Metres, ENCHANTING DIAMOND was momentarily steadied away from the heels of DOUBLE POINT which shifted in.

Approaching the 1400 Metres, FAST AND FURIOUS was steadied away from the heels of BLISS CARTEL (S de Sousa) which shifted in when not properly clear.

S de Sousa was reprimanded and advised to ensure that he is sufficiently clear when shifting ground in future.

After the 1000 Metres, TRIBAL GLORY was left racing wide and without cover.

Approaching the 900 Metres, BLISS CARTEL got its head up when awkwardly placed close to the heels of HOLY STAR.

Passing the 800 Metres, ENCHANTING DIAMOND was taken into a position four wide without cover when HOLY STAR shifted out.

Approaching the 700 Metres, FAST AND FURIOUS and THE PALADIN raced tight due to FAST AND FURIOUS shifting out away from the heels of HOLY STAR when travelling keenly.

At the entrance to the Straight, HOLY STAR and ENCHANTING DIAMOND raced tight.

Near the 250 Metres, DRAGON HARMONY was steadied when disappointed for running between TRIBAL GLORY and MY CUP OVERFLOWS (K C Leung) which shifted out.

K C Leung was advised to exercise more care when shifting ground in similar circumstances.

When questioned, Z Purton stated that he had been asked ride FAST AND FURIOUS more patiently as the horse had experienced internal issues last start when having to be pushed in an attempt to obtain a forward position.

A veterinary inspection of DOUBLE POINT immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.

FORTUNE GIGGLES and HOLY STAR were sent for sampling.
