The Stewards have been provided with written advice from Racing NSW that PHOTON WILLIE (S199) wore blinkers when it ran at Rosehill Gardens Racecourse in Australia on 26 December 2012 prior to being imported to Hong Kong.
Mr Paul O’Sullivan, trainer of PHOTON WILLIE, has requested he be permitted to race the horse in blinkers without it being subjected to a blinkers test. After discussing the application with Mr O’Sullivan, the request has been approved.
