STATE OF TRACK: Yielding

(Course A – True Position)

Panel of Stipendiary Stewards:

Mr Fin Powrie (Chief Stipendiary Steward), Mr Thanaraja Kasinathan (Stipendiary Steward), Mr Nigel Chong (Stipendiary Steward) & Mr Jarry Chong (Stipendiary Steward).

RACE 1 (R1235) CLASS 5 (A) – 1200M (SHORT COURSE A)

GLORIA MARIS (S Ruzaini) bounded in the air at the start, losing ground. When questioned, Jockey S Ruzaini stated that the mare had been fractious in proceeding to the start attempting to buck, and after fly-jumping, he believed that GLORIA MARIS had again attempted to buck. In the straight, although making some ground, he felt that the mare was resentful of racing, throwing its head and racing erratically. In light of this, Trainer SY Lim was advised that GLORIA MARIS will be required to pass 2 tests (1000M/vet from the starting stall tests) before being declared to race again.

At the 625M, ANDRE (App WW Cheah) eased off the heels of COMMODORE LINCOLN (S Muniandy).

D’GREAT SONG (KC Wong) hung inwards on jumping, bumping FIGHTING WARRIOR (J Low).

BIG SUPER (S Anandan) and L’KEN (App R Nuqman) bumped at the start.

In the early stages, MAJOR GREEN (S Muniandy) raced wide. Jockey S Muniandy was questioned as to why he sat three (3) deep on the pace. He stated that he had been instructed to lead but had been unable to do so, and was reluctant to restrain MAJOR GREEN to attempt to take cover. In assessing his riding, the Stewards advised Jockey S Muniandy that in their opinion, he had erred in persisting in his attempt to lead.

IPOH DASH (C Goon) lost ground when steadying on the inside of BORN A FIGHTER (HS Gill) passing the 600M. When questioned, Jockey C Goon advised that IPOH DASH had a history of racing reluctantly but after jumping well, he had settled the gelding but it had been uncomfortable racing on the inside rail at the first turn, and it checked on its own accord near the 600M. He had thus recommended that the gelding be raced in head-gear in future.

L’KEN was blocked when attempting a run on the inside of BIG SUPER near the 300M.

FIGHTING WARRIOR laid outwards over the final stages.

Jockey KC Wong, the rider of D’GREAT SONG, reported that the saddle on his horse slipped backwards at the 1000M.

All riders were addressed with regards to their health and hydration in relation to the API.

RACE 3 (R1135) CLASS 5 (A) – 1400M (LONG COURSE A), SUNDAY, 8 SEPTEMBER 2019, SELANGOR TURF CLUB SEPTEMBER MEETING 2019

The Stewards concluded an inquiry into the reasons for Jockey B Pinheiro being dislodged from COMMODORE LINCOLN near the 1000M. After taking evidence from Jockey R Shafiq (EXCALIBUR) and Jockey B Pinheiro (COMMODORE LINCOLN), it was ascertained that Jockey B Pinheiro had positioned COMMODORE LINCOLN in the field behind EXCALIBUR when the lead pace slowed and this caused Jockey R Shafiq to steady his mount. In taking an evasive action, COMMODORE LINCOLN clipped the heels of EXCALIBUR and blundered, dislodging Jockey B Pinheiro.

After viewing the video of the incident, the Stewards were satisfied that no rider was at fault for this incident.

RACE 1 (R1133) CLASS 5(B) – 1400M (LONG COURSE A)

SATELLITE GENIUS (S Ruzaini) jumped awkwardly, striking the hind quarters of IMMORTAL LEGACY (App M Lukman), losing ground.

SMIDDY BYRNE (KC Wong) which was sitting back when the start was effected, lost ground. SMIDDY BYRNE was then obliged to race wide throughout.

Passing the 1250M, SATELLITE GENIUS shifted in, causing SUPER EIGHT (O Chavez) to be steadied.

Near the 350M, SUPER EIGHT stumbled for no apparent reason. Jockey O Chavez explained that SUPER EIGHT was reluctant throughout the race, and was inclined to shy from the kick back.

When questioned, Trainer WC Lim (IMMORTAL LEGACY) advised that after studying the race, he believed IMMORTAL LEGACY could race in a prominent position although having drawn the outside barrier. He had instructed App M Lukman to ride for pace but was surprised that he had led so easily. Whilst accepting that App M Lukman had ridden IMMORTAL LEGACY diligently to secure the lead, the Stewards suggested to Trainer WC Lim that he educate App M Lukman with regards to the pace and tempo he applies in races.

A post-race veterinary examination of D’GREAT ERA 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.

GENERAL REPORT(S) – SLTC

RACE 4 (R1071) CLASS 4 (A) – 1800M (LONG COURSE B), SATURDAY, 24 AUGUST 2019, SELANGOR TURF CLUB AUGUST MEETING 2019

The Stewards, on 1 September 2019 at the Selangor Turf Club, concluded an inquiry into the riding of Jockey S Salee (THAI BAHT). Further evidence was taken from Jockey S Salee and Trainer SY Lim, the rider and trainer of THAI BAHT respectively.

Jockey S Salee, the rider of THAI BAHT, pleaded guilty to a charge under MRA Rule 44(10) for failing to ride to the satisfaction of the Stewards whilst riding THAI BAHT in the straight in the above race. The particulars of the charge were that his riding of THAI BAHT in the straight with the whip failed to satisfy the Stewards for the particular reason that several whip actions failed to make contact.

In assessing the penalty, the Stewards took into consideration Jockey S Salee’s guilty plea, mitigating factors, previous riding record and his submissions on penalty. Jockey S Salee was suspended from riding in races for a period of one (1) month with effect from 2 September 2019 and to expire on 1 October 2019, both dates inclusive. He was advised of his Right of Appeal (12pm).

The Stewards, on 27 August 2019 at the Selangor Turf Club, concluded an inquiry into the whip use of Jockey S Anandan, the rider of E SUPREME.

After considering the evidence tendered, Jockey S Anandan was fined RM250/- under MRA Rule 41(6)(c)(ii) for continuing to use his whip when E SUPREME was considerably out of contention.

RACE 1 (R1068) CLASS 5 (B) – 1300M (LONG COURSE B), SATURDAY, 24 AUGUST 2019, SELANGOR TURF CLUB AUGUST MEETING 2019

The Stewards, on 27 August 2019 at the Selangor Turf Club, continued the inquiry into the apparent improved performance of MUSANG KING (AK Lim) in the above race. Evidence was taken from Trainer SY Lim, the trainer of MUSANG KING.

Trainer SY Lim advised that he had instructed that MUSANG KING be ridden in both races to be handy. At its previous start, the gelding had been tightened slightly at the start and was unable to take up a prominent position. He was of the opinion that this race was considerably weaker and that there appeared to be little pace in the race. Further that MUSANG KING was advantaged by having Jockey AK Lim ride as opposed to App WK Lee. He had also freshened the gelding in his work. Their explanations were noted.

RACE 6 (R836) CLASS 3 – 1200M (SHORT COURSE A), SATURDAY, 6 JULY 2019, SELANGOR TURF CLUB JULY MEETING 2019

The following horses have passed their 1000M/vet tests on 13 August 2019:

When questioned, Trainer C Leck stated that ARLO had considerable history of leg problems having had many starts, and he believed that at its previous winning start, the gelding had been advantaged by the “yielding” state of track, and that it had not performed well on “good” surface. The Stewards informed him to report back to the Stewards if there is anything amiss with the gelding during the week. A post-race veterinary examination of ARLO revealed no significant finding.

A post-race veterinary examination of SONG KID (App CK Khaw) revealed no significant finding.

GHOST SPIRIT (HS Gill) jumped awkwardly, lost considerable ground and raced wide from the 800M.

BELIEVE IT OR NOT (SU Lim) drifted outwards in the straight. The Stewards questioned Jockey SU Lim as to why he looked around on straightening. He stated that BELIEVE IT OR NOT was the type of horse that requires a challenge, and he had been left in front when RAINBOW CENTRE (S Anandan) had dropped off. In accepting his explanation, the Stewards reminded Jockey SU Lim of his obligations that he must desist from the practice of looking around in races, thus to avoiding suspicions.

Near the 250M, TAKE A BOW (Y Aify) shifted out abruptly to obtain a clear passage.
