Racing Incident Report

ROMANTIC CHARM was withdrawn on 27.5.23 by order of the Stewards acting on veterinary advice (lame right fore). Before being allowed to race again, ROMANTIC CHARM will be subjected to an official veterinary examination.
SERANGOON jumped awkwardly and from a wide barrier was shifted across behind runners in the early stages.
S J TOURBILLON shifted out at the start and bumped TOTAL POWER.
When questioned regarding his riding out of ABOVE over the concluding stages, H Bowman stated that when improving into a narrow run between HIT THE SHOT and S J TOURBILLON, ABOVE appeared reluctant to improve into that position. He added over the concluding stages when HIT THE SHOT shifted in slightly, he was obliged to stop riding for the final two strides as he was concerned that he may strike the heels of HIT THE SHOT due to that runner shifting ground. He said that whilst he acknowledged HIT THE SHOT did not fully cross his mount, nonetheless for safety reasons, he was obliged to take hold of ABOVE. After considering his explanation, the Stewards found H Bowman had acted reasonably given the position his mount was placed in.
After the race, Apprentice Y L Chung (SERANGOON) reported that his mount found it difficult to make up ground from the rear of the field due to the pace gradually increased during the middle stages. A veterinary inspection of SERANGOON immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.
Also after the race, M Chadwick (CELTIC TIMES) stated that he was instructed to obtain cover on his mount in the early stages. He said when caught wide early, he was obliged to come further back to comply with his instructions and in the circumstances he was satisfied with his mount’s performance. A veterinary inspection of CELTIC TIMES immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.
PACKING HURRICANE and HIT THE SHOT were sent for sampling.
<31/5/2023 28 May 2023 Sha Tin Racemeeting – Race 2 (693)>The Stewards tonight inquired into K H Chan’s riding of TOTAL POWER in this event. Jockey Chan stated that he was instructed to take up a forward position and if available hold the lead given the expected slow early pace of the race. He said in the early stages despite making some use of his mount to hold a more forward position, TOTAL POWER did not show sufficient pace to race outside or in the lead and as a result settled in an on-pace position behind the leader. He added that in the early stages he had assessed the pace of the event to be slow but was reluctant to allow TOTAL POWER to stride forward as he was focusing on potentially following PACKING HURRICANE which was positioned to his inside. He said when the pace of the event quickened from the 1200 Metres and PACKING HURRICANE shifted out, PACKING HURRICANE did not improve into the race as he had expected and as a result he lost his position in the race and drifted towards the rear of the field. Trainer D J Hall confirmed the instructions issued. The Stewards advised K H Chan that, in their opinion, he had made an error of judgement, having regard to the instructions and the slow early place, by not obtaining a more forward position on TOTAL POWER which would have prevented PACKING HURRICANE from shifting out near the 1100 Metres and allowed TOTAL POWER to maintain a more competitive position during that section of the race.
