Incident Reports

Race Number Race Name Incident Report
Race 1 Super Pets Sprint - C4 - 295 GOTTA GO ACE (8) was last to jump. Into the bend RINGA DING (4) checked off the back of OPAWA NO EAR (5) and into the path of LINCOLN FLYER (6) who badly checked GOTTA GO ACE who fell. GOTTA GO ACE was referred to the vet for assessment. Kirsty Taylor the co-trainer of CAMPAIGNER advised that the turn around in form could only be attributed to the fact that the dog had been freshened since its last start and had been working well of late after the brief spell.
Race 2 Hampden Tavern Dash - C4 - 295 PICK THE TIP (4) and FLIP THE DICE (8) were the last pair on jumping. PURE AND SPECIAL (5) ran inwards in the early stages tightening OPAWA RUFUS (3) and coming together with BATIATUS (2) for a stride. Following the race OPAWA RUFUS and PICK THE TIP were referred to the vet for assessment.
Race 3 Thursday Place Pick Stakes - C3 - 520 KNOW SPUNK (7) faltered in the early stages and tailed the field throughout with this dog being referred to the vet for assessment. NOISY LEO (4) and AXEL GRINDER (5) jostled for several strides into the first bend and lost ground.

Race 4 Flair Lightning Sprint Heat 1 - C5q - 295 Heat 1 ATE PIZZA (4) dropped to the rear in the early stages after KNOW RIVAL (2) angled outwards and made contact.

The favourite MORE BETTER (8) led on the bend but was dragged down from behind by HOMEBUSH SARGE (5) and lost momentum. HOMEBUSH SARGE then ran wide pushing WANDY GENO (6) over extra ground. MORE BETTER when unbalanced then angled wide causing checks to DAMARJO, HOMEBUSH SARGE and WANDY GENO with this quartet all losing ground. MORE BETTER was referred to the vet for assessment.

Race 10 I Pave Concrete Stakes - C4 - 520 OPAWA MIDNIGHT (2), STARBURST CLEMMY (4) and RED TYPHOON (8) were the last trio on settling. TAKE A TRICK (6) angled outwards into the first bend pushing RED TYPHOON wider on the track as that dog was attempting to improve.
