Racing Incident Report

Pla. Horse No. Horse Incident
1 8 STRAIGHT ARRON (G435) Sent for sampling post-race.
2 3 GALAXY PATCH (H399) Jumped only fairly. Near the 800 Metres commenced to race keenly and was steadied away from MOMENTS IN TIME. When questioned Z Purton stated that after entering the Home Straight he had expected RED LION to continue to improve into the race and as a result he attempted to obtain clear running between RED LION and MOMENTS IN TIME which he had expected to commence to give ground. He said when RED LION did not improve as he had expected and MOMENTS IN TIME shifted in slightly, he was obliged to check his mount to avoid RED LION and as a result GALAXY PATCH was held up for clear running between the 400 Metres and the 300 Metres. He added leaving the 300 Metres he directed his mount to the inside of HAPPY TOGETHER where it secured clear running. Z Purton was advised to exercise more care and to ensure that there is sufficient racing room when he is improving into similar positions. Sent for sampling post-race.
3 10 MOMENTS IN TIME (H474) Jumped only fairly.
4 6 HAPPY TOGETHER (G446) For some distance approaching the 400 Metres had difficulty obtaining clear running when improving into a doubtful run between RED LION and BEAUTY JOY and as a result made contact with RED LION. HAPPY TOGETHER did not obtain clear running until after the 300 Metres. For a short distance approaching the 150 Metres raced tight between RED LION and BEAUTY JOY which shifted out slightly and as a result made contact with RED LION. Noted to have lost its left front plate after the race.
5 2 BEAUTY JOY (E058) B Avdulla pleaded guilty to a careless riding charge for causing interference near the 1300 Metres (see LA CITY BLANCHE). Near the 900 Metres was contacted on the hindquarters, taken wider and became badly unbalanced. After the event, B Avdulla stated that it was not his intention to take up a forward position. He said when BEAUTY JOY commenced to race keenly near the 1200 Metres he allowed it to stride forward to avoid having to restrain his mount unnecessarily.
6 7 RED LION (H115) J Orman pleaded guilty to a careless riding charge for causing interference near the 900 Metres (see CHANCHENG GLORY). Passing the 400 Metres HAPPY TOGETHER endeavoured to obtain clear running between RED LION and BEAUTY JOY when there was not sufficient room to do so, resulting in HAPPY TOGETHER making contact with RED LION and RED LION becoming unbalanced as its rider J Orman endeavoured to hold its position. A Badel, rider of HAPPY TOGETHER, was reprimanded and advised he must ensure that there is sufficient racing room where he is improving. A short distance later HAPPY TOGETHER was taken out when BEAUTY JOY shifted out before being corrected by its rider, resulting in HAPPY TOGETHER making further contact with RED LION. Bumped approaching the 150 Metres.
