When questioned Z Purton stated that after holding a position behind midfield he had some difficulty obtaining clear running between the 500 Metres and the 300 Metres when being shifted to the outside of YEE CHEONG GLORY. He said after obtaining clear running to the outside of YEE CHEONG GLORY near the 250 Metres SPARKLING FELLOW commenced to respond well to his hands and heels riding and when he was satisfied the horse was at its top being ridden in this manner, he continued to ride the horse hands and heels to the winning post, particularly when racing tight to the outside of the winner GOLD PATCH. Sent for sampling post-race.
11 3 TOP THRONE (K116) 2 L Ferraris Jumped only fairly. Near the 300 Metres made contact with BULLISH PRIDE due to both runners shifting ground.

Whilst the Stewards were satisfied that Apprentice Wong had made some effort to prevent his mount from shifting ground, he was reprimanded and advised that in similar circumstances he would be expected to make a greater effort than he did on this occasion and stop riding and straighten his mounts.

General

2.

After the running of Race 3, the track classification was officially changed from "Good” to "Good to Firm”. This change in the opinion of the Stewards should be recorded as being retrospective. As a consequence of this, the official results will show Race 3 being run on a track rated "Good to Firm”.
