27/03/2019  Happy Valley  Race 1

ELECTRIC LIGHTNING began only fairly. LUCKY SHINY DAY began only fairly from a wide barrier and after being ridden along for a short distance was then shifted across behind runners. GOOD RUNNERS WAY shifted in at the start and bumped ART OF RAW and then from the outside barrier was steadied in the early stages and shifted across behind runners to obtain cover. After travelling a short distance, ENORMOUS HONOUR and LUCKY SHINY DAY bumped. After the 1300 Metres, SPINNING DANCER was left racing wide and without cover and then in the Straight gave ground. A veterinary inspection of SPINNING DANCER immediately following the race found that horse to be lame in its right front leg. Before being allowed to race again, SPINNING DANCER will be subjected to an official veterinary examination. Approaching the 1000 Metres, ELECTRIC LIGHTNING commenced to travel keenly and got its head up when being checked away from the heels of SAVVY SEVEN. FINE WITH ME, which was following, was checked away from the heels of ELECTRIC LIGHTNING in consequence and shifted out abruptly, inconveniencing GOOD RUNNERS WAY. Passing the 400 Metres, LUCKY SHINY DAY was awkwardly placed close to the heels of SPINNING DANCER when being shifted to the outside of that horse to obtain clear running. Passing the 300 Metres, ART OF RAW and CHAPARRAL STAR brushed. HURRICANE HUNTER, CHAPARRAL STAR and SAVVY SEVEN were sent for sampling. <28/3/2019 Additional Veterinary Report>SPINNING DANCER, which performed poorly, was examined by the Veterinary Officer who said at that time the horse was lame in its right front leg. SPINNING DANCER was again examined by the Veterinary Officer at the stables of Trainer K L Man this morning. He said at this time he noted the horse to be lame in both front legs. As previously advised, SPINNING DANCER will be subjected to an official veterinary examination before being allowed to race again.
