Incident Reports

Race Number Race Name Incident Report
Race 1 Welcome To Cambridge Raceway Stakes - C0 - 457 PIPI SMASHER and SPECIAL PROJECT were slow to jump. Into the bend BUCCAN ROAD was dragged down and lost ground. He made good ground for third. On the home turn an improving SPECIAL PROJECT clipped the pacemaker and appeared to falter and dropped out to finish last with a post race veterinary check revealing no injury. It is suspected that the dog was suffering from a dead leg after making contact with the other runner giving the impression of breaking down with the veterinary surgeon confirming that this could have been walked off before he was able to check the dog. In the circumstances no action was taken against the dog given the opinion of the veterinary surgeon.
Race 2 Clubhouse Sports Bar Sprint - C1 - 375 ROADMAN'S SHACK was last to jump. JAYDEN'S COURAGE was checked as THRILLING BLAST went around it into the bend and dropped to the rear where she stayed.
Race 3 Interislander Dash - C1 - 457 SPRING TYDE received slight tightening into the bend and lost ground.
Race 4 Hautapu Veterinary Clinic Sprint - C2 - 375 YA GUNNA, PUNGA'S LAD and WILD FLYNN all came together into the bend and dropped to the rear where they remained. On the home turn THRILLING CAM attempted to obtain a run on the inside of ROTOVEGAS GIRL but came into contact with that runner and lost momentum.
Race 5 Protector Safety Stakes - C2 - 457 PRINCESS SHILOH was last to jump. HORSE POWER was tightened into the bend as an improving PRINCESS SHILOH crossed to the rail. PRINCESS SHILOH then checked off the back of WINSOME BOND causing YAMBLA BOB to run wide and lose ground. Shortly after this WAITOTARA RED ran outwards sharply with YAMBLA BOB again being checked. PRINCESS SHILOH recovered to finish well down the outside of the track for an unlucky fourth.
Race 6 0800 4Down Cow Stakes - C5 - 457 WINSOME DELTA received a rocky run in the early stages and settled at the rear where she stayed.
