RACE 4 (R234) CLASS 4 (A) – 1700M (LONG COURSE)
After declarations, Trainer C Leck was questioned as to the reasons he removed the Blinkers from WILLIAM KING (HS Gill) after the gelding won in its last start. He advised that he had been informed by Jockey HS Gill that although winning, WILLIAM KING had raced too fiercely over the 1600M and he was concerned that the gelding would again race in this manner with Blinkers over the longer course of 1700M. After considering this, the Stewards permitted WILLIAM KING to race without Blinkers but with additional Pacifiers, and confirmed that WILLIAM KING would be ridden close to the pace.
WILLIAM KING was inclined to lay inwards passing the 200M and was then carried outwards when SORBETA (App L De Souza) shifted ground over the final 150M. Jockey HS Gill advised that after leaning inwards, WILLIAM KING had shied away from the horse on its inside.
Jockey SU Lim (MACHUNG STAR) was questioned as to the reason he had led on MACHUNG STAR by a large margin in the middle stages. He stated that he had been instructed to ride the gelding where it was comfortable and even by leading as the horse was a noted front runner but was inclined to over-race. He considered that he had rated MACHUNG STAR appropriately, especially given that it was having its initial start over the 1700M distance.
Whilst accepting this evidence in part, the Stewards were of the opinion that Jockey SU Lim had ridden an ill-judged race when leading by this margin as the horse unaccustomed to this distance and believed that he should have ridden MACHUNG STAR more diligently in the middle sections of the race.

Jockey R Rueven was questioned regarding his riding of SUNTZU in the straight. He said that SUNTZU was a one-paced horse and he had urged it at several stages before straightening and although making some ground in the straight, he had tried to balance SUNTZU as it was inclined to tire over the 1300M. The Stewards noted Jockey R Rueven’s explanation.
A post-race veterinary examination of ELITE SILENCER (App A Zaimuddin) revealed that it was lame near fore and as such will be required to pass a 1000M/vet test before being declared to race again.

A post-race veterinary examination of SHOQEET revealed that it was lame off fore and as such will be required to pass a 1000M/vet test before being declared to race again.
