GENERAL REPORT(S) – SLTC

RACE 5 (R1006) CLASS 4A – 1100M (SC A6), SATURDAY, 26 OCTOBER 2024, SELANGOR TURF CLUB SATURDAY MEETING 2024

The Stewards, on Tuesday, 12 November 2024 at SLTC, concluded an inquiry into the running and handling of BINTANG SIXTY-ONE. Evidence was taken from Jockey SU Lim and Trainer C Leck, the rider and trainer of BINTANG SIXTY-ONE respectively.

The Stewards reviewed the films of the incident and considered the evidence tendered. Jockey SU Lim 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 being that on 26 October 2024 in Race 5 run at the Selangor Turf Club, he failed to ride BINTANG SIXTY-ONE to the satisfaction of the Stewards in that his riding in this race was lacking in vigour and determination and passive, with the manner of his riding amounting to not only an unjustified variation of his normal standard of riding but was of a standard which was below expectation of a rider in such a position.

In assessing the penalty, the Stewards took into consideration Jockey SU Lim’s mitigating factors, previous riding record and his submissions on penalty. He was suspended from riding in races for a period of 2 months with immediate effect from 18 November 2024 and to expire on 17 January 2025, both dates inclusive, to be served consecutively with any other penalty. He was advised of his Right of Appeal.

Jockey SU Lim subsequently exercised his Right of Appeal and applied for a Stay of Sentence. The Panel of Stewards considered the application for a stay which was granted. The appeal hearing will be held at a date to be fixed.

ALWAYS INNOCENT

(App A Nazir)

Vet inspection: Lame off fore – 1000M/Vet (2 weeks embargo)

A race review was called into this incident, which was followed by an objection being lodged by Jockey R Shafiq, the rider of the second placed horse, SURFING CLOUD, against the winner, RED DRAGONFLY (CK Khaw) on the grounds of interference and intimidation at approximately the 200M mark.  

After considering the evidence in this matter, the Board overruled the objection. In arriving at this decision, the Board considered the distance between the runners at the finish (3.25 lengths) and that at the point of the interference, RED DRAGONFLY which had run on from behind SURFING CLOUD, had already raced passed SURFING CLOUD by an extending 0.5 length.

Consequently, the Board could not be satisfied that but for the above incident, SURFING CLOUD would have finished ahead of RED DRAGONFLY, therefore it overruled the objection and allowed the Judge’s result to stand. Jockey R Shafiq was fined RM2000/- under MRA Rule 122(3) for lodging an objection being deemed by the Stewards to be frivolous.

At the conclusion of an inquiry, Jockey CK Khaw, the rider of RED DRAGONFLY, pleaded guilty to a charge of careless riding under MRA Rule 44(9)(a)(ii) in that whilst riding RED DRAGONFLY, he failed to ensure that he did not cause interference to SURFING CLOUD at approximately the 200M.

In assessing the penalty, the Stewards took into consideration Jockey CK Khaw’s guilty plea, mitigating factors, previous riding record and his submissions on penalty. He was suspended from riding in races for a period of one (1) Malaysian race day, to be deferred, with effect from 18 November 2024 and to expire on 24 November 2024, both dates inclusive. He was fined RM1,500/- and advised of his Right of Appeal.

At the conclusion of an inquiry, App K Pavinthran, the rider of PERFECT BRANDZ, in the presence of B Trainer Logan Lek, pleaded guilty to a charge under MRA Rule 44(6) for failing to ride to the end of the race to the satisfaction of the Stewards. The particulars of the charge being that he failed to ride PERFECT BRANDZ to the end of the race to the satisfaction of the Stewards, thereby prejudicing his chances of obtaining second placing.

In assessing the penalty, the Stewards took into consideration App K Pavinthran’s guilty plea, mitigating factors, previous riding record and his submissions on penalty. He was suspended from riding in races for a period of two (2) months, to be deferred, with effect from 18 November 2024 and to expire on 17 January 2025, both dates inclusive. He was advised of his Right of Appeal.

At the 1000M, ICHIKA BACHIKA (AK Lim) was tightened for galloping room, clipped heels and Jockey AK Lim was dislodged, then STRONG WHITE, DRAGON WHISPERER, MR HOPKINS and FADABOY and TYPHOON were inconvenienced by the fallen rider.

The Stewards conducted an inquiry into the fall of Jockey AK Lim (ICHIKA BACHIKA). After considering the evidence from Jockey AK Lim and the footage of the race, the Stewards were able to establish that at the point where Jockey AK Lim became tightened for galloping room, this was as a consequence of his horse taking hold of the bit and racing into a gap which was not available to him.

It was further established that in the run, both Jockey SU Lim (BIG GUN) and App SN Shiva (STARHARMONY), when shifting ground, had both established an on the rail and one-off running line without any interference to ICHIKA BACHIKA. Consequently, the Panel was of the view that blame could not be apportioned to any individual rider for this incident and therefore the Stewards deemed it as a racing incident.

Jockey AK Lim was examined by the Club Doctor who stood him down from his riding engagement for the remainder of the race today.
