26/11/2014  Happy Valley  Race 2

As A Suborics was overweight, permission was granted for U Rispoli to be substituted as the rider of SUPER KING STAR. A Suborics was fined the sum of $5,000. RUGBY DIAMOND was slow to begin. SUPER KING STAR was crowded for room on jumping between SHADOWFAXE which shifted in and HOLY STAR which shifted out abruptly. Shortly after the start, TRIUMPHANT JEWEL shifted in and bumped CALL ME ACHIEVER. From a wide barrier, SHADOWFAXE was shifted across behind runners in the early stages. In the early stages, SHADOWFAXE raced greenly and near the 750 Metres shifted in across the heels of HOLY STAR, resulting in GETAWAY GUY being inconvenienced. After the 700 Metres, SHADOWFAXE got its head on the side and commenced to hang in. At the entrance to the Straight, SHADOWFAXE, which was continuing to hang in, was awkwardly placed close to the heels of EVER SHINY. SHADOWFAXE then hung in badly and proved very difficult to ride. The racing manners of SHADOWFAXE were considered unacceptable. Before being allowed to race again, SHADOWFAXE will be required to perform satisfactorily in an official barrier trial around a bend. Near the 300 Metres, RUGBY DIAMOND was shifted in abruptly to the inside of CALL ME ACHIEVER to obtain clear running. Near the 150 Metres, EVER SHINY was shifted to the outside of SHADOWFAXE. Throughout the race, OCEAN ROAR travelled wide and without cover. A veterinary inspection of OCEAN ROAR and HORSE SUPREMO immediately following the race did not show any significant findings. TRIUMPHANT JEWEL and BRILLIANT PROPOSAL were sent for sampling.
