13 1 NORTHERN BEACHES (H266) H Bowman Near the 350 Metres raced tight between ROBOT MASTER and BEAU CADEAU (C L Chau) which shifted to the inside of NOBLE DELUXE. C L Chau was advised to exercise more care. Apprentice P N Wong (ROBOT MASTER) was found guilty of a charge of careless riding [Rule 100(1)] in that near the 200 Metres she allowed her mount to shift out when not clear of NORTHERN BEACHES, resulting in NORTHERN BEACHES being crowded and having to be checked. Apprentice Wong was suspended from riding in races for one Hong Kong raceday to be conducted on Sunday, 27 April 2025 at Sha Tin. In assessing penalty, the Stewards determined the carelessness grade 2 and the consequences grade 2 and also considered her good race riding record. The penalty was further mitigated due to a slight shift in from BEAU CADEAU. A veterinary inspection immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.
2 2 ALSONSO (J405) A Badel A Badel was warned in relation to using his whip in a backhand manner forward of the shoulder on several occasions in the Home Straight. Sent for sampling post-race.
6 3 THRIVING BROTHERS (J396) Z Purton Near the 450 Metres briefly raced in restricted room between NOBLE DELUXE and ROBOT MASTER which shifted out slightly. Sent for sampling post-race.

7 6 COME FAST FAY FAY (K121) L Ferraris On jumping made contact with the right side of its barrier and as a result was slow to begin. Approaching the 200 Metres was directed to the inside of NORTHERN BEACHES to secure clear running and then lay in when placed under pressure thereafter.
12 7 GREAT LEGACY (K187) J Orman Jumped only fairly and was shifted across behind runners in the early stages.
5 8 LAHORE (K043) B Avdulla After the 400 Metres blundered. Prior to declaring weighed-in, the Stewards considered as to whether there were sufficient grounds for a protest/objection against PARENTS’ LOVE and ISLAND BREEZES. The Stewards found that when LAHORE improved into a run where there was doubtful room and both ISLAND BREEZES and PARENTS’ LOVE had shifted ground slightly, they declined to lodge a protest/objection and declared weighed-in on the numbers semaphored by the Judge. Approaching the 100 Metres improved into a tight run between PARENTS’ LOVE and ISLAND BREEZES. A short distance later, both ISLAND BREEZES and PARENTS’ LOVE shifted ground slightly, resulting in LAHORE then racing in restricted room between those two runners for some distance thereafter and being buffeted. In this incident, B Avdulla explained that when he became unbalanced his left knee extended out which was a method he used to maintain his balance. After considering his explanation, B Avdulla was advised whilst it was accepted that his left knee extended away from his body to maintain his balance, he should, wherever possible, ensure that his limbs remain as close to his body as possible.
4 9 MOON ROCKET (K324) K C Leung Jumped awkwardly, made contact with the right side of its barrier and lost ground. Hung out over the final 250 Metres and near the 200 Metres K C Leung was obliged to stop riding and straighten his mount.
10 10 ROBOT MASTER (J107) P N Wong (-10) Bumped at the start. Apprentice P N Wong was found guilty of a careless riding charge for causing interference near the 200 Metres (see NORTHERN BEACHES). After the race, an endoscopic examination was conducted on ROBOT MASTER at the request of Trainer K L Man. The Veterinary Surgeon said this examination found the horse to be a "roarer”.
8 11 KA YING RESILIENCE (J439) K Teetan Jumped awkwardly.

11 13 NOBLE DELUXE (K052) A Hamelin Shifted in on jumping and was bumped. After the 400 Metres dipped. Near the 250 Metres was steadied when crowded between THRIVING BROTHERS and ALSONSO (A Badel) which shifted in when improving to the inside of PARENTS’ LOVE. A Badel was advised to exercise more care. After the event, A Hamelin reported that the instructions were to hold an on-pace position in behind the leaders. He said when NOBLE DELUXE jumped well and showed good pace it was left racing without cover after being crossed by PARENTS’ LOVE. Trainer J Size confirmed the instructions issued. A veterinary inspection immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.

8 5 CIRCUIT TEN (G429) Z Purton Jumped awkwardly, shifted in at the start and was bumped. Over-raced in the early stages and near the 1000 Metres got its head up when being steadied to avoid PODIUM.

10 8 FALCON COURT (J056) K Teetan Slow to begin.
6 9 HO HO STAR (H291) M Chadwick Shortly after the start got its head up when being shifted across behind runners from a wide barrier. When questioned, M Chadwick stated that from a wide barrier the instructions were to endeavour to hold a midfield position but also to attempt to position himself close to the rail as HO HO STAR races best in this position. He said in the early stages when positioned to the outside of MULTIDARLING he was obliged to settle slightly further back to avoid covering additional ground. He added making the Home Turn HO HO STAR commenced to travel reasonably well and after entering the Home Straight he was reluctant to place his mount under full pressure as he wanted to give HO HO STAR the opportunity to work into the race. He said approaching the 300 Metres after shifting to the inside of COMMANDING MISSILE he then placed his mount under full pressure where it finished the race off reasonably well. When questioned if there was an opportunity to ride his mount with more vigour between the 400 Metres and the 300 Metres M Chadwick stated that he felt HO HO STAR was travelling well at this point and had he commenced to ride it along too soon it would not have finished the race off as well as it did. Trainer C H Yip confirmed the instructions issued and advised that in the circumstances there was the opportunity to ride HO HO STAR with more vigour than Jockey Chadwick did in the early part of the Home Straight. After considering his explanation and also taking into account the early and middle stages of the event were run outside of standard time, the Stewards advised M Chadwick that, in their opinion, he had made an error of judgement in not riding his mount with more vigour in the early part of the Home Straight.
11 10 MULTIDARLING (H148) H T Mo (-2) Near the 200 Metres was held up behind PODIUM before being shifted to that runner’s inside near the 50 Metres to obtain clear running.
1 11 WIND SPEEDER (E281) M L Yeung After the event, M L Yeung stated that his instructions were to hold an on-pace position with cover. He said when his mount commenced well and the pace of the event was run outside of standard time WIND SPEEDER led comfortably without being pressured to do so. Sent for sampling post-race.
7 12 CALIFORNIA ICON (H404) Y L Chung (-3) Near the 250 Metres was bumped by COMMANDING MISSILE. After the event, Y L Chung stated that, in his view, CALIFORNIA ICON would be suited by being stepped up in distance. A veterinary inspection immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.

4 7 HONEST WITNESS (K283) Z Purton Jumped only fairly and shortly after the start was then checked when crowded between ENJOY GOLF and LEAN MASTER, both of which shifted ground. Z Purton pleaded guilty to a charge of improper conduct under Rule 155(5) in that after dismounting from HONEST WITNESS in the unplaced saddling area he struck the horse on one occasion with his whip in the area of the flank. Having regard to Jockey Purton’s poor record in relation to similar conduct, he was fined the sum of $25,000 and placed on notice that the Stewards would consider a more significant penalty should he be found guilty of a similar conduct in future.
3 8 LEAN MASTER (H134) P N Wong (-10) When questioned, Apprentice P N Wong stated that the instructions were to lead the event. She said after commencing well and when positioned to the inside of AHREN she allowed LEAN MASTER to improve slightly to ensure that she maintained the lead near the 900 Metres. She said as she did so LEAN MASTER then commenced to race keenly and set a faster pace than she had intended. She added that from the 550 Metres she continued to encourage her mount into the race before LEAN MASTER gave ground in the Home Straight. After considering her explanation, the Stewards advised Apprentice Wong that, in their opinion, she should have held her mount together from the 550 Metres to give it the opportunity to finish the race off better entering the Home Straight.
11 9 RATTAN GALAXY (K143) M F Poon Bumped at the start. In the early stages raced keenly and for some distance after the 900 Metres was steadied away from BILLION TWO.

6 1 GORGEOUS WIN (J008) B Avdulla After the event, B Avdulla stated that from the outside barrier he was obliged to settle at the back of the field to avoid covering additional ground. He said, under its top weight, in the Home Straight GORGEOUS WIN responded reasonably well to his riding, however, its run peaked after the 150 Metres. A veterinary inspection immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.
8 2 SON PAK FU (G265) M Chadwick Jumped only fairly. From a wide barrier was shifted across behind runners in the early stages.
10 3 BEAUTY DESTINY (H281) A Atzeni A veterinary inspection immediately following the race found that horse to have bled from both nostrils and also revealed that it was displaying an irregular heart rhythm. As this was the second occasion that BEAUTY DESTINY had bled, the horse is permanently barred from any further racing.
7 4 BRAVE STAR (G268) L Hewitson Near the 450 Metres was steadied and shifted to the outside of BEAUTY DESTINY when that runner commenced to give ground.
2 5 LADY'S CHOICE (H155) K Teetan Bumped at the start. When questioned, K Teetan stated that his instructions were to lead the event. He said as a result in the early stages he rode his mount along to comply with his instructions where his mount showed good pace to hold the front. He said whilst he was aware that the pace of the event was fast his mount was travelling comfortably in the early stages to hold the lead. He added when GLORY ELITE maintained its position to his outside near the 900 Metres and as its rider Z Purton showed intent on crossing LADY’S CHOICE he then elected near the 900 Metres to allow GLORY ELITE to cross LADY’S CHOICE as he was of the opinion the pace of the event was too fast. He said after obtaining a trailing position behind GLORY ELITE, LADY’S CHOICE travelled only fairly and for this reason near the 500 Metres he elected to shift LADY’S CHOICE to the outside of GLORY ELITE to encourage it to maintain its position and to commence to improve into the event. He said after entering the Home Straight he held his mount together for a short distance before commencing to ride it out to the finish of the event and LADY’S CHOICE continued to respond to his riding to the line. After considering his explanation, the Stewards found the tactics adopted by Jockey Teetan were reasonable in the circumstances. Sent for sampling post-race.
4 6 GLORY ELITE (H311) Z Purton When questioned regarding his riding in particular the fast pace set in the early and middle stages, Z Purton stated that his instructions were to ensure that GLORY ELITE led as the horse performs best when ridden in this manner. He said after riding his mount along in the early stages he continued to urge GLORY ELITE forward to cross LADY’S CHOICE. He said when K Teetan, the rider of LADY’S CHOICE, maintained his position in the lead, he was obliged to make further use of his mount to cross that runner to comply with his instructions. He said whilst he was aware that the pace of the event was being run inside of standard time he felt it was in the horse’s best interests to continue forward as GLORY ELITE had only won its races when being able to dictate from the front. Trainer K H Ting confirmed the instructions issued and expressed satisfaction with the manner in which GLORY ELITE was ridden. After considering his explanation and taking into account the racing history of GLORY ELITE which confirmed that the horse had won its three races from leading and Jockey Purton was riding to the instructions issued, the Stewards found the tactics adopted by Jockey Purton were in all the circumstances reasonable. However, he was advised that, in the opinion of the Stewards, he would have been better suited by maintaining his position outside of LADY’S CHOICE in the early stages having regard to the fast pace set during the early and middle stages of the event. Sent for sampling post-race.
