2 1 GOOD LUCK HAPPY (K301) 8 Z Purton Approaching the 1100 Metres got its head up when being steadied. GOOD LUCK HAPPY continued to get its head up for some distance thereafter when being steadied to avoid REWARDING BUDDY (K C Leung) which shifted in when not quite clear. K C Leung was reprimanded. Between the 300 Metres and the 100 Metres had some difficulty obtaining clear running when being shifted to the outside of REWARDING BUDDY. Z Purton explained that with pace drawn to his inside his instructions were to ride the horse in a more conservative manner in the early stages, particularly as it did not finish the race off strongly when ridden in a forward position at its most recent race start. Trainer A S Cruz confirmed the instructions and the reasons he issued those instructions. Sent for sampling post-race.
3 2 GREAT SPIRIT (J155) 2 A Atzeni No report.
9 3 PACKING KING (K570) 4 C L Chau (-2) Between the 150 Metres and the 50 Metres raced tight to the inside of LEGENDARY IMPACT when that horse shifted in slightly and as a result could not be ridden out through that section of the race.

6 1 FATAL BLOW (J484) 3 H Bowman Bumped on jumping.

1 2 VICTOR THE RAPID (J393) 4 C L Chau (-2) Sent for sampling post-race.
5 3 FORTUNE SUPERNOVA (K287) 7 K C Leung No report.
3 4 GIANT BALLON (K451) 11 Z Purton Jumped awkwardly. Approaching the 300 Metres was bumped and taken wider by JOLLY COMPANION. Near the 200 Metres bumped with JOLLY COMPANION due to both runners shifting ground. Z Purton stated that from a wide barrier he was instructed to take up a forward position. Trainer D J Whyte confirmed the instructions issued as he was of the opinion there was not strong pace in the race.
9 5 MAJESTIC LIFE (L085) 10 Y L Chung (-2) From a wide barrier was shifted across behind runners in the early stages.
2 6 JOLLY COMPANION (H454) 1 C Y Ho On jumping shifted out, made heavy contact with GIMME FIVE and became unbalanced. C Y Ho was found guilty of a careless riding charge for causing interference approaching the 300 Metres (see LOVING VIBES). Near the 200 Metres bumped with GIANT BALLON due to both runners shifting ground. Sent for sampling post-race.
7 7 LOVING VIBES (J359) 6 M Guyon C Y Ho (JOLLY COMPANION) was found guilty of a charge of careless riding [Rule 100(1)] in that approaching the 300 Metres he shifted his mount out when insufficiently clear of GIANT BALLON, resulting in GIANT BALLON being taken out across the running of LOVING VIBES, resulting in LOVING VIBES having to be checked. C Y Ho was suspended from riding in races for one Hong Kong raceday to be conducted on Wednesday, 11 February 2026 at Happy Valley. In assessing penalty, the Stewards determined the carelessness grade 2 and the consequences grade 2 and also considered his excellent race riding record. When questioned M Guyon stated that in the early stages he was able to hold a position behind FLASH STAR. He said near the 800 Metres when GIANT BALLON improved to his outside he raced in restricted room for a short distance to the inside of that runner and when he was aware JOLLY COMPANION was positioned to his inside he was obliged to remain racing one-off. He said as he had expected FLASH STAR to continue forward and lead he did not contest the position behind that runner and as a consequence GIANT BALLON was able to cross to obtain a trailing position behind FLASH STAR. He said when FLASH STAR then remained racing one-off the rail this resulted in LOVING VIBES racing keenly and shifting out and being obliged to race further back as a consequence. After considering his explanation the Stewards advised Jockey Guyon that in the circumstances he had made an error of judgement by not attempting to hold his position to the inside of GIANT BALLON to avoid losing ground in the middle stages. A veterinary inspection immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.
8 8 PRIDE BELIEVER (K501) 8 A Badel A veterinary inspection immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.
10 9 FLASH STAR (K431) 12 R Kingscote In the Home Straight lay in when placed under pressure and approaching the 200 Metres shifted in and made contact with GIMME FIVE. R Kingscote advised that from the outside barrier he was instructed to take up a forward position. He said FLASH STAR then raced too keenly in the lead before giving ground in the Home Straight. Trainer C S Shum confirmed the instructions and advised that he issued those instructions as he felt there was not strong pace in the race. A veterinary inspection immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.
11 10 GIMME FIVE (J099) 2 D Probert On jumping shifted out and made heavy contact with FATAL BLOW. As a result GIMME FIVE became unbalanced, shifted in and made further contact with JOLLY COMPANION. Near the 200 Metres was bumped by FLASH STAR.

When questioned regarding his riding approaching the 300 Metres and the reason he shifted to the inside of CAN’T GO WONG Jockey Purton stated that his mount was under pressure at this point and when he observed SMART CITY shifting to the outside of STORM RUNNER he was of the opinion the run to the outside of CAN’T GO WONG would close and for this reason he elected to shift to the inside of CAN’T GO WONG to continue into clear running. He added in the Home Straight AMAZING GAZE responded only fairly to his riding. A veterinary inspection immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.
