Racing Incident Report
Race Seven: (7) - COTTON TREE HANDICAP - Class 3 - 1000Meters
GOKO began only fairly, shifted out at the start and bumped HIGH VOLATILITY.
HIGH VOLATILITY then shifted out and bumped the hindquarters of STRATHCLYDE which became unbalanced, resulting in STRATHCLYDE shifting in and causing HIGH VOLATILITY to be crowded for room outside GOKO which was awkwardly placed outside GOLDEN DASH.
In the early and middle stages, NICE FANDANGO got its head on the side and lay in.
C Murray (GOLDEN DASH) pleaded guilty to a charge of careless riding [Rule 100(1)] in that passing the 300 Metres he permitted his mount to shift out when not clear of STRATHCLYDE, causing that horse to be unnecessarily crowded for room and to lose the running to which it was rightfully entitled.
C Murray was suspended from riding in races for a period to commence on Wednesday, 12 September 2018 and to expire on Monday, 17 September 2018 on which day he may resume race riding (2 Hong Kong racedays).
A veterinary inspection of STRATHCLYDE immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.
GOKO and GOLDEN DASH were sent for sampling.
Recap by phillip woo
Goko quickened nicely on the far left after showing no pace one from the back to win going away 60m out for a third win from five starts over the straight 1,000m despite a rise in class. He remains one to follow over this trip. Firming favourite Golden Dash found one too good after poking his head in front approaching the 100m in the middle of the track. It was a solid effort despite a rise in class. Turf Sprint plugged away for third following a handy run on the far side. It wasn't a bad run but the big weight's proving a tough hurdle to clear. Nice Fandango was on his tippy toes 100m out after easily crossing to lead on the stands side from a low draw. He needed the run but his gate speed remains an asset going forward. Midnight Rattler kept on okay travelling midfield. He didn't beat much but is well rated and likes a longer trip.
