This isn't good.

Excerpt, incidents report...

VIVA HONG KONG was sent for an official veterinary inspection. After the race, VIVA HONG KONG, which finished tailed out, was examined by the Veterinary Officer. He said the horse was displaying an irregular heart rhythm. As this is the second occasion on which VIVA HONG KONG has been reported to have displayed an irregular heart rhythm, the horse will now be barred from racing for a period of 6 months and will be required to perform to the satisfaction of the Stewards in an official barrier trial and be subjected to an official veterinary examination before being permitted to race again. MELLIFLUOUS, LOTZATOW and FAT DRAGON were sent for sampling.

Woods plans Knight's retirement, but looks ahead with Decision

MURRAY BELL

(excerpt)


Sean Woods was unbeaten after two races with horses at polar-opposite ends of the experience spectrum, leaving the British trainer with two very different sets of future plans.
Woods was chuffed that First Knight, a loyal servant to the yard, had been able to land the opening race under an aggressive Brett Prebble ride and is now recommending a well-earned retirement for the nine-year-old.

"He's done a fantastic job and we're very proud of him," Woods said. "Today was his 111th start, it's a Hong Kong record number of starts and I think this would be a very nice way to finish it off. That will be my recommendation to the owners [the Eighth Floor Syndicate] and I hope they agree to it.

"We'll ensure he goes to a good home, in either Australia or New Zealand, and I hope the Jockey Club sees fit to give him a public farewell because he's been a wonderfully sound, competitive horse for a long period of time." :)

First Knight's victory in the Class Five over 1,400 metres was his ninth win and he's banked HK$4.4 million. He's also landed eight seconds, five thirds and 11 fourths across a long career with just two trainers - David Hill originally, then transferring to Woods after Hill quit Hong Kong and moved to Singapore in the summer of 2005. First Knight debuted on May 25, 2002, in a griffin race over 1,000m. He was handled by Eddie Lai Wai-ming and ran last of 14 runners at 82-1. His four seasons with Hill provided three wins, but Woods has extracted the other six over the past three years and two months.

Why Syllabus is the kindest horse in HK, reason #2...

Excerpt, SCMP.

Whyte counting his lucky stars


ALAN AITKEN


But Whyte was thankful even to be at the meeting having gone within a heartbeat of wrecking his right knee on Friday. "My horse Syllabus had my knee pinned against the side of the gate and then went up in the air, and I went over into the next stall where there was no horse to get any leverage but my knee was still pinned and supporting my entire weight for a split second," Whyte said.

"If the horse hadn't moved when he did, I would have torn the ligaments in my knee. As it was there was a crunching sound and some pain but he had just moved in time to free the leg. I tell you, somebody was looking after me."


* * *

I thought this was kinda fun...

Excerpt, SCMP...

Apache Cat's HK trip abandoned after Flemington failure


MURRAY BELL


There was an unusual Hong Kong connection with All Silent, who completed his rise up the ratings with a dominant win in the Group One Emirates Stakes (1,600m), the highlight race of the final day of the carnival. All Silent began his career in Hong Kong under the name Chiu Chan Elite. He was owned by Robin Chan Yau-hing and trained by John Size.

To say the Belong To Me gelding failed to make an impression is a gross understatement.

In three barrier trials for Size, he was last and distanced on the first two occasions and, when revved right up by Anthony Delpech for a third trial, he laboured into fifth spot in a turf trial over 1,000m, beaten 8.2 lengths.

At that time, Chan had the option of bringing in Warrior, so Chiu Chan Elite was replaced by the brilliant young sprinter and it all looked like ending well when Warrior won his first three starts.

Chiu Chan Elite was "retired" from Hong Kong unraced, returning to Australia and reverting to the name All Silent.

Chan did not want to continue in the ownership of All Silent, and he was bought back by his yearling selector, Size's father-in-law Neville Begg, who now races the gelding with other family members. The five-year-old is trained by Begg's son Grahame.

CSC 11-10-2008 11:35 AM

Viva Pataca is highweight again, this might be the time to have a nice little "prep" race for him so that he can be ready for the big one. Then the screws will be tightened I suspect. ;)

I know what a monster he is but I'd love to see Macau beat him just once!

Good luck to my Bullish boys and to Jackpot.

(... and Packing Winner). :D

Maybe they could all just cross the line together!

From yesterday (in HK)...

The Cathay Pacific International Cup Trial Sha Tin Race Meeting - 16 November 2008

15 November 2008

The Veterinary Officer has this morning reported the following matters to the Stewards after completing the routine pre-race veterinary inspection of all horses declared to run at the Sha Tin race meeting to be held tomorrow, 16 November 2008.

VIVA PATACA, a declared runner in the Cathay Pacific International Cup Trial, was noted to have injured its right elbow. After a thorough inspection, including blood profiling, the Veterinary Officer said in his opinion VIVA PATACA was at this time suitable to race.

BULLISH CASH, also a declared runner in the Cathay Pacific International Cup Trial, was noted to have soreness in the left front foot. The Veterinary Officer said BULLISH CASH was also suitable to race, and it will be attended to by the Head Farrier.

Both VIVA PATACA and BULLISH CASH will be subjected to a further veterinary examination tomorrow morning.

A paid workout huh...Will Bullish Luck now go into retirement I guess is the question? He wasn't disgraced, but he's telling them it's probably time.
