Recap by phillip woo

Favourite Inner Flame won with something in hand after moving to the front 350m out travelling professionally one off in third for a debut win. He was well prepared by Douglas Whyte and has a bright future. Moon Peaks just out-finished late-fancied Wonder Brahma following a prominent run to grab second 100m out. Wonder Brahma finished well after peeling into the open 300m out following a midfield run on the fence. It was a nice debut. Lucky Guy came up one-paced over the last 100m after getting every chance travelling one-off the fence better than midfield. Ka Ying Excellent came on well down the outside after making his run three deep and fourth from the back from a wide draw. Eptiwins ran on without menacing after settling fifth from the back. Treasure Chest was racing ungenerously on the fence behind leader Glorious Buddy, had to go around that one for a clear run at the 200m and came up flat 100m out.

Racing Incident Report

Race Two: (266) - HO SHEUNG HEUNG HANDICAP - Class 4 - 1200Meters

STRONG PROMISE was slow to begin.

KA YING EXCELLENT began only fairly.

MOON PEAKS and INNER FLAME bumped at the start.

APOLLOS BOW jumped in at the start and made contact with COPARTNER ERA which became unbalanced.

From the outside barrier, FORTUNE PATROL was steadied and shifted across behind runners soon after the start to obtain cover.

In the early stages, DRAGON BOLT raced greenly and got its head up for some distance approaching the first turn.

Making the first turn approaching the 800 Metres, COPARTNER ERA shifted out and became very awkward near the heels of EPTIWINS.

KA YING EXCELLENT, which was racing to the outside of COPARTNER ERA, was inconvenienced and taken wider.

From the entrance to the Straight until after passing the 300 Metres, TREASURE CHEST was held up behind GLORIOUS BUDDY.

Approaching the 250 Metres, STRONG PROMISE shifted in abruptly away from the heels of APOLLOS BOW and inconvenienced FORTUNE PATROL.

For the majority of the race, APOLLOS BOW travelled wide and without cover.

A veterinary inspection of GLORIOUS BUDDY, which weakened badly in the Straight, immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.

INNER FLAME and MOON PEAKS were sent for sampling.
