Incident Reports
| Race Number | Race Name | Incident Report |
|---|---|---|
| Race 1 | Cambridge Maiden Series Final - C0f - 375 | ENOUGH IS ENOUGH, MS. TOURNAMENTAL and APRIL REIGN were slow to jump. The favourite ENOUGH IS ENOUGH got on the heels of BIG LASS when attempting to improve on the bend and lost ground. He ran on well for second. At the lure HICCUP appeared to attempt to attack ENOUGH IS ENOUGH and the muzzle came off in this incident. The dogs had to be separated with some force by catcher David Schofield. A post race veterinary check of ENOUGH IS ENOUGH revealed bite injuries to the right rump area requiring sutures with a twenty one day stand down recommended. |
| Race 2 | General Engravers Sprint - C2/3 - 375 | All clear. |
| Race 3 | YGOT Bonus Scheme Stakes - C0 - 457 | All clear. |
| Race 4 | Superior Chunky Dog Rolls Final - C1f - 375 | ELLY'S GIRL, CENTRAL SKIP and PIN UP PUPPY all came together soon after the jump and settled towards the rear. CENTRAL SKIP checked outwards off runners on the bend and lost ground. |
| Race 5 | Innovative Homes Stakes - C1 - 457 | PARNELL MIST and GIRL CHARM were the slowest to begin. Soon after MISS JETSUN and ICHI NI came together for a stride. Into the bend PARNELL MIST was tightened along the inside and lost ground. |
| Race 6 | Stephen Marsh Racing Sprint - C4 - 375 | Favourite PUNK SCOOTER was only fairly away from an outside draw and received slight tightening into the bend. She ran on fairly finishing in sixth position. Trainer David Schofiield when questioned stated that the dog sometimes is a bit slow from outside draws and once she had missed the jump couldn't make up the lost ground. GROOVY MANGO was tightened in the back straight and dropped to the rear. |
| Race 7 | Lichfiled Kennels Stakes - C3 - 457 | STRIKE ONCE was slow to jump. CORNWALL ROAD was badly checked at the end of the back straight losing ground. At this stage the co-favourite COLD FINGERS was badly held up losing momentum. He ran on well when clear for fourth. Trainer Arch Lawrence expressed satisfaction with the run after the chequered passage he received adding that the dog is better suited over extra ground. |
| Race 8 | 0800 4 Down Cow Sprint - C1 - 375 | THRILLING RAY was last to jump. LOONEY LEE was tightened into the bend and dropped to the rear where she remained. Following the race TODD was found to have a dislocated toe with a fourteen day stand down recommended. |
| Race 9 | Te Awamutu Self Storage Stakes - C4/5 - 457 | WINSOME FLASH and JUST DEFY THAT received slight tightening at the jump as HARAJUKU BOY crossed quickly from his midfield box. JUST DEFY THAT and FANCY STEP came together soon after the start. The favourite REGENT HURRICANE checked outwards off WINSOME RITE on the bend and lost valuable ground running on well for third when balanced. At this stage JUST DEFY THAT ran wide pushing WINSOME FLASH wider around the home turn with both runners losing ground. |
| Race 10 | Interislander Sprint - C5 - 375 | WINSOME ACHIEVER was very slow to jump. Into the bend FANCY SPIDER and FIND PEDRO came together and lost ground. |
| Race 11 | Vehicle Services LTD Stakes - C2 - 457 | PLASMAH was slow to jump. Into the bend REGENT DYNAMITE ran inwards slightly coming into contact with YAMBLA BOB and lost his footing and fell. The dog failed to complete the course with a post race veterinary check revealing a fractured radius and ulna with the dog being euthanised on humane grounds. |
| Race 12 | Protector Safety Stakes - C1 - 457 | THRILLING APRIL was last away but made good ground for a close third. Favourite FANCY MILLY lost ground when running off the rail into the bend but once straightened up pressed on gamely to win. |
