2 GO BRITANNIA K T Yeung A T Millard 9 132 64 -- --

Steward Report Predict Pace Map
GO BRITANNIA was withdrawn on 16.5.08 by order of the Stewards acting on veterinary advice (lame both fore) and was replaced by Standby Declared Starter HELENE ELITE. Before being allowed to race again, GO BRITANNIA will be subjected to an official veterinary examination. From the outside barrier, PACHINKO was taken across behind runners in the early stages. MASTER CRISTO began awkwardly, shifted out and bumped BOBO WIN. Near the 1300 Metres, BOBO WIN was checked when crowded for room inside TREASURE COLT (C W Wong) which had its head on the side and was shifting in away from BRAVO BRAVO when racing tight inside that horse. In the circumstances, C W Wong was severely reprimanded and told to exercise greater care. Also near the 1300 Metres, HELENE ELITE, which was being hard ridden after being slow to muster speed, was steadied away from the heels of GOAL KEEPER which shifted in. Near the 1200 Metres, SPEEDY WARRIOR and BRAVO BRAVO were checked when crowded for room between GOAL KEEPER which shifted in and TREASURE COLT which when being ridden along was carried wider by MASTER CRISTO. In the circumstances, no action was taken. Approaching the turn at the 800 Metres, TREASURE COLT was left racing three wide outside the lead without cover, then in the Straight gave ground. The performance of TREASURE COLT was considered unacceptable. Before being allowed to race again, TREASURE COLT will be required to perform to the satisfaction of the Stewards in an official barrier trial and be subjected to an official veterinary examination. After the 600 Metres, SPEEDY WARRIOR was steadied when momentarily crowded for room between HELENE ELITE and MASTER CRISTO which shifted in. Some inconvenience was caused to BOBO WIN which was racing to the inside of SPEEDY WARRIOR. At the 500 Metres, SPEEDY WARRIOR was again steadied when awkwardly placed outside the heels of HELENE ELITE which at this time shifted out. For a considerable distance after straightening, SPEEDY WARRIOR hung in. At the 400 Metres, BRILLIANT TREASURE was shifted to the inside of HELENE ELITE to obtain clear running. Also at the 400 Metres, MUTUAL FRIENDSHIP got its head up when being steadied to avoid the heels of TREASURE COLT which was giving ground. From the 400 Metres until after the 300 Metres, PACHINKO had difficulty obtaining clear running. At the 250 Metres, BEAUTIFUL CHOICE, which was giving ground, and BRILLIANT TREASURE were crowded for room outside ROMANTIC GREEN which shifted out. Over about the final 200 Metres, HELENE ELITE hung out. At the 50 Metres, BOBO WIN, which was inclined to hang in, had difficulty improving into a narrow run between TIGER RIDGE and ROMANTIC GREEN. When questioned regarding the poor performance of BEAUTIFUL CHOICE, H W Lai said he went forward in the early stages as is usual, however, the horse did not have sufficient pace to cross TIGER RIDGE in the lead and therefore he maintained his position outside that horse. He said when TREASURE COLT improved to race outside BEAUTIFUL CHOICE, his mount would not relax and over-raced. He said approaching the 800 Metres when the tempo of the race began to steady, the field bunched up and therefore there was not an opportunity for him to obtain a position with cover behind TIGER RIDGE. He said as a consequence BEAUTIFUL CHOICE continued to over-race and in the Straight gave ground. The performance of BEAUTIFUL CHOICE, a last start winner, was considered unacceptable. Before being allowed to race again, BEAUTIFUL CHOICE will be required to perform to the satisfaction of the Stewards in an official barrier trial and be subjected to an official veterinary examination. When questioned regarding the poor performance of MASTER CRISTO, M Nunes said due to the fast tempo of today’s race, he was required to make some use of the horse to have it travel in front of midfield. He said because of this MASTER CRISTO did not finish the race off. BEAUTIFUL CHOICE, MASTER CRISTO, SPEEDY WARRIOR and TREASURE COLT were sent for an official veterinary inspection. A veterinary inspection of BEAUTIFUL CHOICE and MASTER CRISTO after the race did not show any significant findings. After the race, SPEEDY WARRIOR was examined by the Veterinary Officer. He said an endoscopic examination showed a substantial amount of mucopus in the horse's trachea. Also after the race, TREASURE COLT was examined by the Veterinary Officer. He said the horse was making an abnormal breathing noise which may be as a result of a soft palate problem. GOAL KEEPER, MUTUAL FRIENDSHIP and BRILLIANT TREASURE were sent for sampling.
