Incident Reports

Race Number Race Name Incident Report
Race 1 Super Pets Dash - C0 - 295 ANOTHER CHARM (5) was a late scratching on vets advice after being found to have a swollen toe upon being collected to race. Shortly after the jump ANOTHER CHARMER (2) was crowded for racing room between KENTARO BAXTER (3) and SAMMY BAXTER (1). ANOTHER CHARMER was then turn out wards slightly by SAMMY BAXTER when negotiating the first bend. QUIN BAXTER (6) fell to the track and was unable to right itself after being severely dragged down by TATUM BAXTER (8) in the run to the lure post race. A Veterinarian examination found QUIN BAXTER to have a sustained an injury to its left Scapula resulting in treatment with pain killers and an anti-inflammatory. Due to a number of handlers attending to QUIN BAXTER and this dog not being available to pose at the podium Stewards waived the requirement of the second and third placed runners to return to the podium. When questioned regarding the improved performance of QUIN BAXTER, Kennel representative J McInerney (Jnr) advised that it had not received any luck in its previous two starts and had benefited from a clear run through the early stages helped by having a vacant box directly inside it today.
Race 2 Happy Birthday Lynda White Stakes - C0 - 520 OPAWA JAY JAY (6) came inwards after the start crowding the racing room of ANOTHER MESSAGE (5). UNO BRENT (4) had to check off the heels of ANOTHER MESSAGE when racing into the first bend. UNO JAMES (8) ran wide racing round the first bend.
Race 3 Greyhounds As Pets Sprint - C1 - 295 KNOW ENERGY (2) and TOO MUCH REBEL (7) were both slow to jump.

Race 5 I Pave Concrete Sprint - C1 - 295 CHARLIE NEXT BOY (4) had its running line impeded through the early stages before checking off the heels of BIZARRO (5) and bumping HOMEBUSH NAKI (6).

Race 8 Angler's Arms Tavern Sprint - C1 - 295 TEPIRITA AMBER (5) and CAWBOURNE PIRATE (6) lost ground racing towards the bend when squeezed between BIG JOHN CANON (4) and AIR EXPRESS (7). HAYLEY JAMES (3) was held up by TEPIRITA AMBER entering the bend with TEPIRITA AMBER then clipping the heels of LAUDABLE (8) approaching the straight. Trainer M Dempsey was questioned regarding the improved performance of BIG JOHN CANON to which he believed was due to natural improvement in its second from a spell necessitated by illness.
Race 9 Power Farming Canterbury Stakes - C1 - 520 LA KINKS (4), GOLDSTAR COCO (9) and KNOW WORTH (8) were all slow to jump. MOBILIZE (1) was placed in restricted room shortly after the start by HOMEBUSH SLINKY (2). OPAWA PAUL (5) lost ground when squeezed between MOBILIZE and GOLDSTAR COCO entering the back straight. SPARROW (3) was awkwardly placed on the heels of PLUTONIUM (7) entering the home straight resulting in a slight check to KNOW WORTH. OPAWA PAUL was held up for racing room through the early stages of the run home. When questioned regarding the improved performance of LA KINKS, trainer M Grant was of the opinion that its recent starts have been luckless due to the dog's tendency of missing the jump and today was able to secure a trouble free run through the field.
