Evidence were taken from Trainer R Lines and Jockey AK Lim. After reviewing all angles of the video and after consideration, Jockey AK Lim was found guilty to a charge under MRA Rule 44(10) for failing to ride to the satisfaction of the Stewards.

The particulars of the charge are that:

From the 400M-mark to the end of the race, he failed to ride with sufficient vigour and determination when his mount was running on strongly.
From the 300M-mark to the end of the race, his whip use on HARVEYWALLBANGER was ineffective and not making efficient contact, as he was holding the middle shaft of his whip, instead of the handle proper when whipping.

In assessing the penalty, the Panel of Stewards took into account Jockey AK Lim’s riding records and mitigating factors. Jockey AK Lim was suspended from riding in races for a period of three (3) months, effective from 24^th February 2025 and to expire on 23^rd May 2025, both dates inclusive.

The particulars of the charge are that:

In assessing the penalty, the Panel of Stewards took into account App H Haikal’s riding records and mitigating factors.
