Racing Incident Report

FELIX THE KING was slow to begin.
WINWIN THIRTYTHREE and ERNEST FEELING jumped only fairly.
YOUNG HORIZON jumped awkwardly.
THIS IS GUTS jumped awkwardly and then from a wide barrier was shifted across behind runners in the early stages.
From the outside barrier, MAXIMIZE HEART was also shifted across behind runners in the early stages.
Near the 1200 Metres, BEAUTY NOVA was steadied to allow HANDSOME GUYS to cross.
Also near the 1200 Metres, HUNKY DORY, which was racing keenly, was steadied to avoid TRAVEL GLORY after being crossed by that runner.
THIS IS GUTS raced keenly in the early stages and passing the 1200 Metres shifted in, resulting in ERNEST FEELING, which was also racing keenly, being steadied.
HANDSOME GUYS over-raced in the early and middle stages and for some distance passing the 900 Metres was awkwardly placed close to FORTUNE MASTER.
Approaching the 600 Metres, FELIX THE KING and WINWIN THIRTYTHREE bumped due to FELIX THE KING racing tight to the inside of ERNEST FEELING.
Near the 500 Metres, FELIX THE KING fell, resulting in its rider, M L Yeung, being dislodged. M L Yeung was subsequently transported to hospital. The Stewards opened an inquiry into the reason for FELIX THE KING falling. After taking evidence from H Bowman (WINWIN THIRTYTHREE), A Badel (BEAUTY NOVA), A Hamelin (ERNEST FEELING) and L Ferraris (HUNKY DORY), the inquiry was adjourned until a date to be fixed so that evidence can be taken from Jockey Yeung.
WINWIN THIRTYTHREE was held up for clear running for some distance making the Home Turn and approaching the 500 Metres was steadied away from BEAUTY NOVA.
HANDSOME GUYS was briefly held up approaching the 400 Metres.
Passing the 400 Metres, HUNKY DORY became held up behind HANDSOME GUYS and was steadied when disappointed for running between THIS IS GUTS and HANDSOME GUYS which shifted out. HUNKY DORY then did not obtain clear running until near the 250 Metres.
From the 400 Metres to the 150 Metres, MAXIMIZE HEART was held up for clear running.
When giving ground near the 200 Metres, THIS IS GUTS shifted out and became awkwardly placed close to HUNKY DORY and a short distance later was steadied away from MAXIMIZE HEART which shifted to the outside of HANDSOME GUYS to obtain clear running.
The performance of FORTUNE MASTER, a last start winner, was considered unacceptable. Before being allowed to race again, FORTUNE MASTER will be required to perform to the satisfaction of the Stewards in a barrier trial and be subjected to an official veterinary examination. A veterinary inspection of FORTUNE MASTER immediately following the race which included an endoscopic examination showed a substantial amount of blood in the horse’s trachea.
A veterinary inspection of HANDSOME GUYS immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.
A veterinary inspection of GIVE WAY PLEASE immediately following the race found that horse to be a "roarer” which had previously been reported.
ERNEST FEELING and WINWIN THIRTYTHREE were sent for sampling.
<2/4/2023 Adjourned Inquiry – 26 March 2023 Sha Tin Racemeeting – Race 4 (524)> The Stewards today continued an inquiry into the reason for FELIX THE KING falling near the 500 Metres. On 26 March 2023, evidence was taken from H Bowman (WINWIN THIRTYTHREE), A Badel (BEAUTY NOVA), A Hamelin (ERNEST FEELING) and L Ferraris (HUNKY DORY). At today’s inquiry, further evidence was taken from A Badel, A Hamelin, L Ferraris in addition to M L Yeung, the rider of FELIX THE KING, who was unable to provide evidence on the day due to receiving medical treatment. The inquiry today established that near the 500 Metres FELIX THE KING was positioned close to ERNEST FEELING at which point M L Yeung commenced to place his mount under pressure when racing directly behind ERNEST FEELING. A short distance later, Jockey Yeung directed FELIX THE KING out slightly to commence a move to the outside of ERNEST FEELING which at the same point ERNEST FEELING was taken out slightly by BEAUTY NOVA which was taken out by HUNKY DORY. As a result, the Stewards found that FELIX THE KING struck the near hind heel of ERNEST FEELING which resulted in FELIX THE KING falling and M L Yeung being dislodged. After considering all the evidence, the Stewards found that the positioning of FELIX THE KING close to the heels of ERNEST FEELING was the major contributor for FELIX THE KING striking heels and falling, however, L Ferraris was advised that in similar circumstances he should exercise more care when shifting ground.
