RACE 2 (R761)  CLASS 5  – 1400M          

COLONEL LINCOLN, a course scratching as it had a corn on the off fore foot, will be required to pass a veterinary examination before being declared to race again.

MULTIBLUE TOSCA (App P Mogun) had to shift out across the heels of ONE MORE ACHIEVER (Z Khairil) to get a clear run at about the 250M, and then laid inwards, obliging the rider to stop riding and straighten his mount to obtain clear running.

ELUSIVE GENIUS (S Salee) was disappointed for a run racing to the 150M between ANGELFIRE (A Aucharuz) and PHANTASOS (S Ruzaini) when ANGELFIRE rolled out away from the whip.  Jockey A Aucharuz was shown the vision of the incident and advised to exercise greater care in similar circumstances.

Jockey SU Lim, the rider of RUN CHEETAH RUN, reported that his mount was not striding out freely.  A post-race veterinary examination revealed no obvious abnormality.  RUN CHEETAH RUN was Impounded for further veterinary and analytical examination.  The gelding which raced poorly, will be required to pass a test (1000M/vet) before being declared to race again.

Post-race veterinary examinations of D’GREAT TALENT (App L De Souza) and FIRST OPTION (App KC Wong) revealed no obvious abnormality.

The Stewards questioned Jockey SU Lim and Trainer HS Lim into the poor performance of RUN CHEETAH RUN today.  Trainer HS Lim was unable to offer any tangible explanation other than that the gelding may not have saddled up from its run on 10th June 2018.  Jockey SU Lim reported that the gelding was not striding out freely and failed to respond to his riding at any stage of the race and was very disappointing.  Their explanations were noted.  Trainer HS Lim was advised to report back to the Stewards should he find anything amiss with the gelding during the week.

The Stewards adjourned an Inquiry into the riding and handling of GHOST CITY (SS Vanan) to a date to be fixed.

RACE 3 (R762) CLASS 5 – 1200M                      

ONE O NINE which was down 31kgs in body weight since its last run, was checked by the Club Veterinary Surgeon prior to the race and was passed fit to start.

AUSONE (J Low) was slow into stride and showed no early pace despite being urged.

ARLO (S Ruzaini) jumped away awkwardly, got its head up and then raced ungenerously for a short distance.

MR WHYTE (A Aucharuz) was held up for clear running from the 300M until the 250M and had to shift out across the heels of MISS BLANCHETT (R Rueven) to obtain a clear run.

App AM Aizat, the rider of OUR MATE CHARLIE, reported that his mount was not striding out freely.  A post-race veterinary examination revealed no obvious abnormality.  OUR MATE CHARLIE which raced poorly, will be required to pass a test (1000M/vet) before being declared to race again.

Post-race veterinary examinations of ARLO, AMI ELEVEN (App L De Souza) and DARK EXPRESS (Z Khairil) revealed no obvious abnormality.

The Stewards questioned Jockey S Ruzaini, the rider of ARLO, into the poor performance of the gelding today.  He stated that his instructions were to get a good jump from the wide barrier, however ARLO jumped away awkwardly, threw its head up and was unable to master early speed.  He further explained that ARLO was not suited by the firmer going today and when put under pressure in the straight, failed to respond to his riding.  Trainer C Leck stated that his instruction was to get a good jump and settle in a midfield position.  In his opinion, ARLO was not suited by the firmer going today and was disappointing.  Their explanations were noted.
