Racing Incident Report

Pla. Horse No. Horse Incident
1 10 FLYING FORTRESS (J445) Made contact with OUTGATE when being shifted out near the 500 Metres to improve. Sent for sampling post-race.
2 4 ROCKET SPADE (G170) From the outside barrier was shifted across behind runners in the early stages. Held up on the Home Turn. Sent for sampling post-race.
3 5 KOLACHI (J395) No report.
4 8 IVY LEAGUE (H116) Bumped on jumping.
5 3 CAMBRIDGE (K085) Bumped on jumping. Y L Chung (GOOD LUCK WIN) pleaded guilty to a charge of careless riding [Rule 100(1)] in that near the 1100 Metres he permitted his mount to shift in when not clear of CAMBRIDGE, resulting in CAMBRIDGE having to be checked to avoid the heels of GOOD LUCK WIN. Y L Chung was suspended from riding in races for a period to commence on Sunday, 27 April 2025 and to expire on Thursday, 1 May 2025 on which day he may resume race riding (2 Hong Kong racedays). In assessing penalty, the Stewards determined the carelessness grade 2 and the consequences grade 2 and also considered his good race riding record. Raced keenly in the middle stages. Near the 450 Metres was briefly held up behind GOOD LUCK WIN. Near the 300 Metres was steadied when held up behind OUTGATE which commenced to give ground.
6 2 STAR CONTACT (E472) Shortly after the start was bumped by SETANTA which shifted in. After the event, K Teetan stated that instructions were to hold a midfield position.
7 11 GOOD LUCK WIN (J135) Y L Chung (GOOD LUCK WIN) pleaded guilty to a careless riding charge for causing interference near the 1100 Metres (see CAMBRIDGE). When questioned regarding his riding in the early stages, Y L Chung stated that his instructions were to endeavour to lead the event with the horse carrying a light weight. He said in the early stages he endeavoured to comply with his instructions, however, when a number of runners held their position to his inside GOOD LUCK WIN was caught very wide. He said having regard to his instructions he continued to urge his mount forward but when unable to cross he elected, approaching the 1100 Metres, to shift in behind the leaders to obtain cover. The Stewards advised Jockey Chung that he had made an error of judgement in the early stages by persisting for too long in an endeavour to cross runners to his inside and he should have taken a position with cover behind the leaders sooner than what he did. A veterinary inspection immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.
8 9 SETANTA (G095) Bumped at the start.
9 6 CHARITY TOGETHER (K254) Sustained an abrasion to the right lip whilst being transported to Happy Valley, was examined by the Veterinary Officer and passed suitable to race. Jumped only fairly.
10 1 OUTGATE (H113) Bumped at the start. After the 500 Metres was hampered when taken wider by FLYING FORTRESS which shifted to the outside of IVY LEAGUE to improve. A veterinary inspection immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.
11 7 SUPER UNICORN (H481) After the event, M L Yeung stated that his instructions were to go forward. He said with the early stages of the event being run inside of standard time his mount did not finish the race off in the Home Straight. He added, in his view, SUPER UNICORN may be better suited by being ridden in a conservative manner in the early stages. A veterinary inspection immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.
