After being crossed by WINNING DIAMOND approaching the 1300 Metres commenced to race keenly and was steadied to avoid WINNING DIAMOND. When questioned Apprentice H Y Yuen stated that her instructions were to hold a handy position with cover. She said in the early stages LOVELY MILES showed sufficient pace to hold a position behind the leader WINNING DIAMOND. She said approaching the 1100 Metres when her mount was racing keenly she was reluctant to make use of it to prevent SUPER SICARIO from shifting in as she was concerned this would result in her mount racing too keenly. She said as a result SUPER SICARIO was able to obtain a position in advance of LOVELY MILES and behind WINNING DIAMOND near the 1100 Metres. When questioned as the reason why her mount was obliged to race wide and without cover from the 1000 Metres, Apprentice Yuen stated that when making the turn near the 1000 Metres her mount shifted out which provided an opportunity for GOR GOR to obtain a position one-off behind SUPER SICARIO and this resulted in her mount being obliged to race wide and without cover thereafter. She further stated that after making contact with GOR GOR near the 550 Metres her mount shifted out which resulted in TELECOM POWER then improving to her inside and LOVELY MILES being obliged to race very wide making the Home Turn. Trainer P F Yiu confirmed the instructions were consistent with previous instructions he issued at the horse’s most recent starts. The Stewards advised Apprentice Yuen that she had made two errors of judgement in the early stages firstly near the 1100 Metres by not making a greater effort to hold her position behind WINNING DIAMOND to prevent SUPER SICARIO from shifting in and secondly near the 1000 Metres by permitting her mount to shift out to a three wide position which afforded GOR GOR the opportunity to obtain a position one-off following SUPER SICARIO. She was further advised that whilst acknowledging her inexperience as an apprentice jockey in future she would be expected to show better judgement than what she did during the early stages of this race. A veterinary inspection immediately following the race found that horse to have sustained a laceration to the right hind cannon.

Y L Chung reported that his mount did not travel throughout the event and came under pressure from the 800 Metres where it gave ground from that point. A veterinary inspection immediately following the race revealed that the horse was displaying an irregular heart rhythm. As this was the 3rd occasion within 24 months that the horse had been found to have an irregular heart rhythm, it is now to be compulsorily retired from racing in Hong Kong.

K C Leung stated that his mount was able to obtain a comfortable lead, but failed to respond to his riding upon entering the Home Straight and gave ground noticeably.

H Bentley stated that after obtaining a handy position behind LOVELY MILES in the early stages his mount was shuffled back in the field when LOVELY MILES did not hold its position behind the leaders. He said after then having to make a run from the 600 Metres and being briefly held up on the Home Turn TELECOM POWER did not finish its race off in the Home Straight. A veterinary inspection immediately following the race which included an endoscopic examination showed a substantial amount of blood in the horse’s trachea. The performance of TELECOM POWER was considered disappointing. Before being allowed to race again, TELECOM POWER will be required to perform to the satisfaction of the Stewards in a barrier trial and be subjected to an official veterinary examination.
