Race:1 (57) NANNING HANDICAP (Sec1) Class 5 1200 m

Pla. Horse
No		 Colour Horse Dr. Jockey Incident
3 1 SUNNY Q (J223) 4 A Atzeni Jumped awkwardly, shifted out and brushed GOOD FORTUNE.
2 2 FALCON HUNTER (K503) 2 J Orman Sent for sampling post-race.
8 3 FLASH STAR (K431) 6 C L Chau (-2) C L Chau reported that his mount had a tendency to over-race in the early stages and made contact with GOOD FORTUNE on a number of occasions when endeavouring to gain a position with cover. He said, in his opinion, when he was unable to get a favourable position this contributed to the horse’s performance today. Raced very wide and without cover for the majority of the event.
4 4 POWER PATCH (L100) 8 C Y Ho Jumped only fairly.
14 5 GOOD FORTUNE (H349) 5 H Y Yuen (-7) Brushed at the start by SUNNY Q which shifted out. In the early stages was bumped on several occasions with FLASH STAR. Apprentice H Y Yuen reported that her mount never travelled at any stage during the event unlike when she rode the horse at its previous start to the point where getting to the Home Turn she made a decision not to pressure GOOD FORTUNE any further and the horse subsequently tailed off. Trainer P C Ng explained that GOOD FORTUNE has had a similar racing characteristic previously by having a low head carriage in races and today when the first 400 Metres was run outside of standard time this may have contributed to the horse’s galloping action. He added GOOD FORTUNE had worked and barrier trialed well leading into today’s event and would opt for a senior rider for its next race start. A veterinary inspection immediately following the race did not show any significant findings. The performance of GOOD FORTUNE, which finished tailed out, was considered unacceptable. Before being allowed to race again, GOOD FORTUNE will be required to perform to the satisfaction of the Stewards in a barrier trial and be subjected to an official veterinary examination which must include additional diagnostic assessments. Sent for sampling post-race.
5 6 NOBLE FANS (K038) 13 Z Purton From a wide barrier was shifted across behind runners in the early stages.
1 7 CIRRUS SPEED (K279) 3 M F Poon Trainer D J Hall confirmed after the race that it was his pre-race instructions for the horse to be ridden in a forward position from its favourable barrier. Sent for sampling post-race.
10 8 GROOVY FEELING (J515) 1 P N Wong (-7) A veterinary inspection immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.
12 9 LEGENDARY IMPACT (K035) 9 A Badel A Badel explained that he was instructed to take up a forward position, however, when a number of runners improved to his inside in the early stages he was left with no other option but to ride his mount back in the field to gain some cover. Trainer Y S Tsui confirmed the instructions and was satisfied with Jockey Badel’s decision to go back given the circumstances of how the race panned out in the early stages.
7 10 VIVA CHALEUR (G368) 11 B Avdulla No report.
11 11 QUICK MONEY (K377) 14 K C Leung Raced wide and without cover for the majority of the event.

A veterinary inspection immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.
6 13 WINNING DIAMOND (K216) 12 R Kingscote From a wide barrier was shifted across behind runners in the early stages.
9 14 EXCEED THE WISH (J480) 10 L Hewitson From a wide barrier was shifted across behind runners in the early stages.

1 9 ALL ARE MINE (H293) 1 A Badel After passing the 400 Metres was shifted out several horses to obtain clear running inside the 300 Metres and in doing so was not sufficiently clear of SETANTA which was steadied. A Badel was reprimanded and advised to exercise more care when shifting ground. Sent for sampling post-race.

5 2 CRIMSON FLASH (K173) 8 A Atzeni From the 600 Metres raced in restricted room to the outside of BEAUTY WAVES and near the 400 Metres was steadied momentarily to avoid BEAUTY WAVES (C L Chau). C L Chau was advised to exercise more care when he permitted his mount to shift out.

3 6 BOTTOMUPTOGETHER (J316) 1 A Badel A Badel explained that his instructions were with some flexibility depending on how his mount jumped from an awkward draw. He said given the horse had drawn barrier 1 on the straight course he opted to gain some cover behind TOMODACHI KOKOROE which unfortunately did not take him into the race and near the 400 Metres then shifted in which allowed the horse to finish the race off strongly. Trainer F C Lor confirmed the instructions issued and expressed satisfaction with the ride as he was of the opinion these tactics that were adopted are more suitable to the horse’s winning chances given the race being run over the shorter distance of 1000 Metres.
2 7 MAGIC CONTROL (J333) 3 M Chadwick Jumped awkwardly. Sent for sampling post-race.
