GENERAL REPORT – SLTC

RACE 2 (R090) CLASS 5 (A) – 1800M (LONG COURSE B), SUNDAY, 20 JANUARY 2019, SELANGOR TURF CLUB JANUARY MEETING 2019

The Stewards concluded an inquiry into the running and handling of D’GREAT SWIFT. They took evidence from App CK Khaw, the rider of D’GREAT SWIFT, in the presence of his Master, Trainer R Lines who is also the Trainer of D’GREAT SWIFT.

After reviewing the vision of the race and considering the evidence tendered, App CK Khaw was found guilty of a charge under MRA Rule 44(10) for failing to ride to the satisfaction of the Stewards. The particulars of the charge were that between the 1000M and the 650M, he made insufficient effort to improve D’GREAT SWIFT’s position.

In determining the penalty the Stewards took into consideration App CK Khaw’s mitigating factors, submissions on penalty and his riding record. The Stewards also took into consideration the evidence tendered by Mr TP Tang, the Owner of D’GREAT SWIFT and 50% part owner of JJ STAR, the winner of the race. Mr TP Tang assured the Stewards that he had expected both horses to run well and had bet on them in equal amounts. Bearing in mind that D’GREAT SWIFT and JJ STAR had finished first and second respectively in Race 11 (R029) on 6 January 2019, which was the last start for both horses, the Stewards found Mr TP Tang’s statement to be credible.

App CK Khaw was suspended from riding in races for a period of one (1) month with effect from 23 January 2019 and to expire on 22 February 2019, both dates inclusive. He was advised of his Right of Appeal (2:45pm).

TUESDAY, 22 JANUARY 2019, SLTC OFFICIAL BARRIER TEST

A post-trial veterinary examination of TH MAXIMS 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.

SLTC STIPENDIARY STEWARDS’ REPORT – THURSDAY, 24 JANUARY 2019

RACE 10 (R098) CLASS 4 (A) – 1300M (LONG COURSE B), SUNDAY, 20 JANUARY 2019, SELANGOR TURF CLUB JANUARY MEETING 2019

The Stewards enquired into the running and handling of LUKE MAN in this race. They took evidence from App N Varmah and Trainer C Leck, who is also App Varmah’s Master Trainer.

Trainer C Leck stated that LUKE MAN, which was transferred to his training on 4^th December 2018, was unimpressive in trackwork and he had entered the gelding for an official Barrier Practice on 15^th January 2019 in an attempt to bring about improvement. App N Varmah was the rider in this barrier practice, in which LUKE MAN was unsettled in the gate, then showed early speed before apparently tiring from the 400M. With this in mind, Trainer C Leck decided to nominate App Varmah for the ride on 20^th January as he had some knowledge of the gelding’s temperament and racing style. He instructed App Varmah to relax LUKE MAN in the early stages and conserve energy in order to finish strongly, which he observed that the gelding had not been able to do when racing for his previous trainer.

App Varmah reported that LUKE MAN became fractious and agitated in the barrier, when the attendant holding him anticipated the start and released his grip before the gate opened. At this point, App Varmah shouted to the Starter to wait, and looked around to see if any other attendant was available to hold LUKE MAN’s tail which he felt would calm the gelding. As he did so, the start was effected and consequently, he was not fully ready and LUKE MAN reared inwards.

App Varmah stated that LUKE MAN raced fiercely in the early stages and took charge of him from about the 1000M, which resulted in the gelding running wide. He was then denied any opportunity to shift inwards and save ground due to the presence of SACRED EMPIRE (S Ruzaini) on his inside. In the straight, he attempted to comply with his instructions which were to commit to his full finishing effort at the 400M. He added that he was unable to ride with full vigour at this point as the saddle had slipped backwards, which he reported immediately post-race to a Stipendiary Steward.

Trainer C Leck stated that in hindsight, he had made a mistake in nominating App N Varmah to ride LUKE MAN. He believed that App N Varmah became tired in the closing stages as a result of fighting for control throughout the race. He assured the Stewards that he would nominate an experienced professional for LUKE MAN’s next start.

Having heard the evidence and reviewed the vision of the race, the Stewards advised Trainer C Leck that, due to concerns about App N Varmah’s current standard of riding and development as a jockey, they would not accept him to be nominated for rides at Selangor Turf Club until:

1. He has passed a riding assessment conducted by a Stipendiary Steward.

2. He has participated successfully in at least fifteen (15) barrier trials.

This condition will take effect immediately. Both parties were advised of their Right of Appeal (11.10am).

RACE 10 (R1317) CLASS 4 (B) – 1300M (LONG COURSE B), SUNDAY, 21 OCTOBER 2018, SELANGOR TURF CLUB OCTOBER MEETING 2018

The Stewards, on 2nd November 2018 at the Selangor Turf Club, held an enquiry into the running and handling of JUBILATION (App N Varmah) which raced in a detached last place in the early and middle stages of the above race. They took evidence from App N Varmah and his Master C Leck, also the Trainer of JUBILATION.

App N Varmah stated that on jumping, JUBILATION had brushed with BOOSTER on his inside and then did not stride out to his satisfaction in the early and middle stages. He added that the gelding had started to move better in the straight and finished the race well. Trainer C Leck stated that in his opinion JUBILATION had been positioned too far back and that App N Varmah should have attempted to keep in touch with the other runners. However, he added that the gelding has issues with intermittent lameness and that on previous occasions when he has raced poorly, he was subsequently discovered to be lame. He explained that App N Varmah was aware of the horse’s veterinary history.

The Stewards also took evidence from Dr Shri Kanth (Senior Veterinary Surgeon), who had inspected JUBILATION post-race and Dr Edward Samuel (Veterinary Surgeon), who had treated the gelding the following day for a problem with his off-fore heel. JUBILATION displayed no abnormalities immediately post-race and after viewing the vision of the race, both veterinarians agreed with the observation of the Stewards that there was no discernible change in his stride pattern at any stage.

While acknowledging that App N Varmah is very inexperienced, and that he did express concerns about JUBILATION’s welfare immediately post-race, the Stewards considered his riding to be unacceptable in the circumstances. App N Varmah was found guilty of a charge under MRA Rule 44(10) for failing to ride to the satisfaction of the Stewards in that he rode with insufficient purpose and vigour throughout. In assessing the penalty, the Stewards took into consideration App N Varmah’s mitigating factors including his lack of experience, previous riding record and his submissions on penalty. He was suspended for 2 months with effect from 5^th November 2018 and to expire on 4^th January 2019, both dates inclusive. He was advised of his Right of Appeal (10:55am).

GENERAL REPORT – SLTC

RACE 10 (R1317) CLASS 4 (B) – 1300M (LONG COURSE B), SUNDAY, 21 OCTOBER 2018, SELANGOR TURF CLUB OCTOBER MEETING 2018

The Stewards, on 23^rd October 2018 at the Selangor Turf Club, enquired into the running and handling of MR CONNERY in the above race. They interviewed Apprentice WW Cheah, in the presence of his Master, Trainer R Lines, who is also the trainer of MR CONNERY.

Trainer R Lines stated that MR CONNERY is a horse who benefits from patient riding and needs further than the 1300M distance of this race. He explained that he had instructed App WW Cheah to ride the horse from the back of the field. App WW Cheah stated that he had been instructed to make his move at about the 600M and he did so by angling to the outside and asking MR CONNERY for an effort. He added that the gelding had commenced to lay inwards at about the 400M and he therefore decided to ride him with hands and heels in order to maintain a straight line.

The Stewards noted these explanations and also noted Trainer R Lines’ admission that MR CONNERY is a quirky horse and perhaps, in hindsight, not an easy ride for a very inexperienced apprentice. Trainer Lines was informed that in future App WW Cheah would only be allowed to accept rides that the Stewards deemed to be suitable. App WW Cheah was warned that in future he must ride all his mounts in such a manner as to leave no room for query.

RACE 2 (R1309) CLASS 5 (A) – 1400M (LONG COURSE B), SUNDAY, 21 OCTOBER 2018, SELANGOR TURF CLUB OCTOBER MEETING 2018

On 23^rd October 2018, the Stewards inquired into the conduct of Trainer SY Lim before Race 2 on 21^st October 2018. He had informed a Stipendiary Steward prior to the race that WE’RE THE WORLD, normally a forward runner, would be ridden from midfield and an announcement was made to that effect for the benefit of the betting public. However, in the race itself, WE’RE THE WORLD jumped alertly, took the lead in the early stages, was never headed thereafter and won by two lengths.

Trainer SY Lim stated that he had been attempting to comply with his responsibilities under MRA Rule 35(8) and it was not his intention to mislead. He had, in fact, instructed App WK Lee to ride WE’RE THE WORLD from midfield as he felt that the gelding would struggle to obtain a forward position from the outside barrier. He had further instructed App WK Lee to allow WE’RE THE WORLD to stride forward or even take the lead if it proved difficult to settle. He accepted that he had only communicated the first part of those instructions to Stipendiary Steward Nigel Chong.

Trainer SY Lim pleaded guilty to a charge of negligence under MRA Rule 152(5)(a) in that when notifying the Stewards of his intention for WE’RE THE WORLD to be ridden in a manner different from its most recent start or starts, he did so in a manner that caused the Stewards to give out incorrect information. He was fined RM250/-.

TUESDAY, 23 OCTOBER 2018, SLTC OFFICIAL BARRIER PRACTICE

The Club Veterinary Surgeon reported that HAPPY FAMILY (R406) bled and will be barred from racing for a period of three (3) months under MRA Rule 92(3), and thereafter will be required to pass a bleeder’s test before being declared to race again.

The Stewards, on 20 September 2018 at the Selangor Turf Club, concluded an inquiry into the running and handling of BLACK THORN. Evidence was taken from Jockey C Goon and Trainer SY Lim, the rider and trainer of BLACK THORN respectively.

After reviewing the vision of the race and considering the evidence tendered, Jockey C Goon was found guilty of a charge of incompetent riding under MRA Rule 44(9)(b)(iii).

The particulars of the charge were that:

1. By his own admission, he was not confident to switch his whip to the left hand and to use it accordingly, when it may have been the most appropriate course of action due to BLACK THORN’s tendency to lay inwards.

2. On several occasions in the last 200M, his attempted whip strikes made no contact with BLACK THORN.

In assessing the penalty, the Stewards took into consideration Jockey C Goon’s mitigating factors, previous riding record and his submissions on penalty. Acting on the provisions of MRA Rule 48(5), the Stewards deferred the commencement of his suspension. He was suspended from riding in races for a period of six (6) weeks with effect from 24 September 2018 and to expire on 4 November 2018, both dates inclusive. He was advised of his Right of Appeal (2:40pm).

RACE 8 (R1133) CLASS 3 – 1400M (SHORT COURSE A), SUNDAY, 9 SEPTEMBER 2018, SELANGOR TURF CLUB SEPTEMBER MEETING 2018

Jockey C Goon (BLACK THORN) subsequently exercised his Right of Appeal and applied for a Stay of Sentence. The Stewards considered the application for a stay which was allowed. The appeal hearing will be held at a date to be fixed.
