Racing Incident Report

VALUE CHOICE was slow to begin. BLINK AGAIN shifted in at the start and bumped KING CREOLE. For some distance in the early part of the Straight, KING CREOLE was awkwardly placed close to the heels of STAR LEGEND. Throughout the race, FORTUNE PUG travelled wide and without cover. When questioned, Apprentice M L Yeung stated that he had been instructed to ride NOT QUITE PERFECT in a midfield position from barrier 12 if possible. He said in the early stages of the race he shifted across behind POWER AND GOLD and then making the first turn when racing four wide outside of BLINK AGAIN was obliged to come back further in order to obtain a position closer to the running rail. He said after the 1000 Metres after obtaining a position on the fence, NOT QUITE PERFECT came off the bit and because of this near the 800 Metres he immediately commenced riding the horse along to have it improve its position. He said then in the Straight NOT QUITE PERFECT finished off the race only fairly. He added, due to the circumstances of the race in the early stages, he was not able to ride NOT QUITE PERFECT in a midfield position and the horse raced further back than had been intended. Trainer A Lee stated that on every occasion when NOT QUITE PERFECT had been successful, it had drawn inside gates. He said he felt that if NOT QUITE PERFECT was pushed along early to overcome its wide barrier, the horse would not be able to finish off the race. He said he had hoped that NOT QUITE PERFECT would be able to obtain a midfield position with cover, however, appreciated that this may have been difficult given that the horse had drawn barrier 12. He added that although NOT QUITE PERFECT raced further back than had been hoped, he will not make use of the horse from wide draws in future as it had demonstrated in the past that it was not able to finish off the race when ridden along in the early stages. Mr Lee was advised that his explanation would be recorded and that the Stewards expect that NOT QUITE PERFECT would be ridden in a consistent manner in the future where circumstances permit. A veterinary inspection of ANDIAMO, which finished tailed out, after the race revealed that the horse was displaying an irregular heart rhythm. Before being allowed to race again, ANDIAMO will be required to perform satisfactorily in an official barrier trial and be subjected to an official veterinary examination. WINDICATOR RETURNS and MY TIME were sent for sampling.
