The Stewards, on 10 September 2020 at the Selangor Turf Club, inquired into the reason for SNAGGLE PUSS presented late at the pre-race holding area causing it to be withdrawn from Race 2 on 5 September 2020.

He stated that his Syce had overslept and that his Supervisor had failed to check if SNAGGLE PUSS had departed on time.

Trainer WC Lim pleaded guilty to a charge under MRA Rule 109 for failing to ensure SNAGGLE PUSS was presented on time and was fined RM1000/-.

MARINE TREASURE was impeded in the straight and had to be taken wide to obtain a clear passage. Jockey R Rueven, the rider of AFFLECK, pleaded guilty to a charge of careless riding under MRA Rule 44(9)(a)(ii) in that he shifted in shortly after the start, carrying DINTINCTIVE DARCI (App L De Souza) inwards which caused MARINE TREASURE (App M Akmazani) and D’GREAT CONQUEROR (AK Lim) to be tightened and lose ground.

In assessing the penalty, the Stewards took into consideration Jockey R Rueven’s guilty plea, 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 two (2) Malaysian race days with effect from 10 August 2020 and to expire on 16 August 2020, both dates inclusive.

GENERAL REPORT(S) – SLTC

RACE 7 (R479) CLASS 4 (A) – 1600M (LONG COURSE), SATURDAY, 1 AUGUST 2020, SELANGOR TURF CLUB AUGUST SPECIAL MEETING 2020

The Stewards questioned App A Zaimuddin (SHELLOMADA), in the presence of his Employing Trainer, Trainer BT Lim who is also the Trainer of SHELLOMADA, regarding his whip use on that gelding. Trainer BT Lim put forward that App A Zaimuddin had not ridden for a considerable period and as he had been subject to some previous training, he attempted to change his whip riding style during this period. As such, he was of the opinion that App A Zaimuddin, although trying to ride to his best, had not yet perfected the different style.

Whilst the Stewards accepted this in part, they referred App A Zaimuddin for specific whip related training and advised that he must ride every horse in a manner so as to leave no doubt as to his proper purpose.
