25/10/2015  Shatin  Race 4

After being loaded into the barriers, CAREFREE LET GO, which was also fractious in the Parade Ring, reared. CAREFREE LET GO was removed from the barriers and examined by the Veterinary Officer who said that the horse was suitable to race. Before being allowed to race again, CAREFREE LET GO will be required to perform satisfactorily in a barrier trial. Also after being loaded, HIGHLAND HAMMER became fractious and sat back in the barriers. HIGHLAND HAMMER was also removed from the barriers and examined by the Veterinary Officer who said that the horse was suitable to race. Before being allowed to race again, HIGHLAND HAMMER will be required to perform satisfactorily in a stalls test. MULTIEXPRESS began awkwardly and shortly after the start, from a wide barrier, was shifted across behind runners. Approaching the 1300 Metres, CAREFREE LET GO was momentarily awkwardly placed close to the heels of DRAGON GENERAL when being shifted across behind that horse. Throughout the race, DRAGON GENERAL travelled wide and without cover and after the 700 Metres got its head on the side and lay out when racing greenly. Near the 550 Metres, SUPER SWEET ORANGE raced in restricted room inside HIGHLAND HAMMER (R Fourie) which was racing tight inside DRAGON GENERAL. R Fourie was warned against the practice of extending his arm out away from his body excessively. A veterinary inspection of HIGHLAND HAMMER immediately following the race found that horse to have sustained a minor wound to the left stifle, however, it was unable to be scoped due to being fractious. SOLAR HEI HEI and ALL WIN BOY were sent for sampling.
