Racing Incident Report
Race Eight: (565) - THE SPRINT CUP - Class G2 - 1200Meters
As H Bowman was unable to fulfil the engagement on COURIER WONDER due to being overweight, K Teetan was substituted as the rider of that horse.
H Bowman was fined the sum of $10,000.
WHIZZ KID, which was fractious in the barriers, jumped awkwardly and lost ground.
WHIZZ KID then raced keenly in the early and middle stages and near the 800 Metres was steadied away from CORDYCEPS SIX.
COURIER WONDER jumped awkwardly.
Shortly after the start, LUCKY SWEYNESSE, which jumped only fairly, was then hampered when crowded between COURIER WONDER and CORDYCEPS SIX which shifted out.
Near the 800 Metres, CORDYCEPS SIX shifted out and away from LUCKY SWEYNESSE, resulting in COURIER WONDER being taken wider.
COURIER WONDER then raced wide and without cover thereafter.
A veterinary inspection of COURIER WONDER immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.
LUCKY SWEYNESSE and WELLINGTON were sent for sampling.
Recap by phillip woo
Raging favourite Lucky Sweynesse got the better of Wellington 150m out after tracking the speed in third following a tardy start for an 11th win from 15 starts. He's a superstar up to 1,400m. Punted late Wellington found one too smart after poking his head in front 300m out following a speed chasing run. He ran well but was beaten by a better horse on the day. Master Eight led and stuck on well for third. It was his best run of the campaign following a change in tactics. Specked late Rewarding Together came from last to fill a quartet spot. He's as honest as the day is long. Cordyceps Six produced a grinding performance from midfield on the fence with late-market action. He's just not up to this class. Courier Wonder never came on after getting posted wide in midfield from the 800m. Whizz Kid briefly improved to around midfield 800m out after a very slow start but tamely retreated in the straight drive.
