09/02/2017

Race 2 – ALL TOGETHER

After the race, an endoscopic examination was conducted on ALL TOGETHER at the request of Trainer C S Shum.  The Veterinary Surgeon reported that this examination showed a substantial amount of blood in the horse’s trachea.  Before being allowed to race again, ALL TOGETHER will be subjected to an official veterinary examination.

Race 8 – GREAT CHARM

GREAT CHARM, which performed poorly, was examined by the Veterinary Officer who said at that time the horse was displaying an irregular heart rhythm and had bled from both nostrils.  GREAT CHARM was again examined by the Veterinary Officer at the stables of Trainer R Gibson this morning.  He said at this time he noted the horse to be lame in its left front leg.  As previously advised, GREAT CHARM will be required to perform satisfactorily in a barrier trial and be subjected to an official veterinary examination before being allowed to race again.

The Veterinary Officer reported that examinations conducted this morning of all other horses inspected during last night’s racemeeting were shown to have no significant findings.
