Recap by phillip woo

Well-fancied Yellowfin dictated a genuine pace from gate five, turned the final bend one length on top and kept finding to beat favourite Taj Dragon. It was his second consecutive win and first Class Three victory on his 14th start in the grade. He has the tools to win again. Taj Dragon was edging closer with every stride but found one too good. The weight differential determined the outcome. Brave Dreams came from near last to fill a placing. He is as honest as the day is long. Show Respect ran on steadily from his midfield spot on the fence to fill the frame. He is acclimatising. Marado came up onepaced following his prominent run. He ran with merit for his new trainer, Chris So Wai-yin, off his 224-day break. Flagship Warrior travelled better than midfield under 10-pound claimer Ellis Wong Chi-wang before just holding his ground. He needed the outing for his new handler, Caspar Fownes. Solid Shalaa came up flat. The step up to 1,400m following his grinding 1,200m fifth on opening day did not have the desired result. Beauty Mission never got involved from towards the rear. He is a hard one to get right.

Racing Incident Report

Race Seven: (43) - THE HONG KONG UNIVERSITY ALUMNI ASSOCIATION CHALLENGE CUP - Class 3 - 1400Meters



Whilst parading, A Atzeni was dislodged from SHOW RESPECT without incident.

On arrival at the barriers, SHOW RESPECT was examined by the Veterinary Officer and passed suitable to race.

SOLID SHALAA jumped only fairly and shortly after the start raced tight between YELLOWFIN and BEAUTY MISSILE, both of which shifted ground.

HARRY'S HERO was slow to begin and then was crowded between TOURBILLON PRINCE and BRAVE DREAMS which shifted in.

BRAVE DREAMS was then shifted across behind runners from the outside barrier in the early stages.

When caught wide in the early stages, BEAUTY MISSILE was steadied near the 900 Metres to obtain cover.

TOURBILLON PRINCE raced wide and without cover for the majority of the event.

A veterinary inspection of BEAUTY MISSILE and SOLID SHALAA immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.

A veterinary inspection of TOURBILLON PRINCE immediately following the race found that horse to be a "roarer??which had previously been reported.

YELLOWFIN and TAJ DRAGON were sent for sampling.
