PRESTIGE GOOD (K131): Jumped awkwardly and shortly after was checked when crowded between HAPPY DAILY and WAH MAY WAI WAI which shifted in after being crowded by SKY VINO. Over the final 200 Metres lay in and proved reluctant to shift to the outside of SKY VINO to continue into clear running. TURIN WARRIOR (G150): Bumped at the start and became unbalanced. After the event, J Orman advised that from an inside barrier the instructions were to hold a more forward position. He said TURIN WARRIOR jumped well and was able to obtain a position behind the lead without being pressured to do so. CASA ROCHESTER (J494): From a wide barrier was shifted across behind runners in the early stages. In the early part of the Home Straight when placed under pressure raced greenly. Between the 200 Metres and the 100 Metres had difficulty obtaining clear running. HAPPY DAILY (E294): When being shifted in to obtain cover behind JUMBO FORTUNE approaching the 1500 Metres was steadied away from JUMBO FORTUNE when that runner shifted out and away from TURIN WARRIOR. GOR MO TUEN (J434): On jumping was checked when badly crowded between TURIN WARRIOR and THE DOUBLE EAGLE which shifted out despite the efforts of its rider. In the middle stages raced keenly. After the 300 Metres was shifted to the inside of THE DOUBLE EAGLE to attempt to obtain clear running. A short distance later was steadied when disappointed for this run when THE DOUBLE EAGLE lay in. A veterinary inspection immediately following the race did not show any significant findings. OWNERS' PRAISE (H047): No report. WAH MAY WAI WAI (J193): Crowded at the start. SKY VINO (K054): Shifted in at the start and was bumped. Sent for sampling post-race. THE DOUBLE EAGLE (J342): Shifted out at the start and was bumped heavily. A veterinary inspection immediately following the race did not show any significant findings. JUMBO FORTUNE (G195): Sent for sampling post-race. PING HAI COMET (H344): Jumped only fairly. From the outside barrier was shifted across behind runners in the early stages. EN PERFECTO (J409): When questioned, A Badel stated that when the pace of the event was run outside of standard time he elected to make a forward move from the 1000 Metres to take advantage of its light weight. He said when EN PERFECTO did not show sufficient pace to cross to lead the event, this resulted in the horse being obliged to race wide and without cover for the remainder of the race.
