TILSWORTH MALI (SU Lim) which cast its near hind plate, had to be reshod behind the barriers.

POLO BOY (App AK Lim) raced wide from the 700M until entering the straight.

The Stewards questioned App M Hanif, the rider of SO THE THING, in the presence of his Master, Trainer LN Danis, and Trainer PS Kumaran, the Trainer of SO THE THING, into the reasons why the mare was slow to begin. App M Hanif stated that when the gates were released, he gave SO THE THING a good rein to jump but it threw its head up, and for several strides, the mare continued to throw its head and then he elected to ride forward and the mare commenced to over-race and raced fiercely. He added that racing to the 1200M, he had to check to avoid the heels of FRANCES (App L De Souza) and shifted ground. He further stated that SO THE THING continued to pull and was very difficult to ride until entering the straight and when placed under pressure at the 400M, it failed to respond to his riding.

Trainer PS Kumaran confirmed the instructions were to be handy and this was confirmed from the Trainer’s Instruction Form. App M Hanif reported after the race that SO THE THING was sore. A post-race veterinary examination of SO THE THING revealed no significant finding. The mare was impounded. The Stewards adjourned the inquiry to a date to be fixed.

RACE 1 (R1035)       CLASS 5 – 1400M (SHORT COURSE A)

SWISS BANK (App A Zaimuddin) over-raced in the middle stages of the race.

The Stewards showed App W Faizal, the rider of VALENTINE BABY, the vision of the final 100M, and warned him that he must have better control of his mounts when shifting out under the whip.

The Stewards questioned Jockey L Sofhan and Trainer LN Danis, the rider and trainer of MANMADHAN respectively into the mare’s poor performance today. Jockey L Sofhan stated that his instructions were to be midfield. He explained that the mare had no early pace, failed to respond to his riding at any stage when being put under pressure with the whip, found nothing and ran a disappointing race.

Trainer LN Danis confirmed the instructions, and stated that the mare had been working well and he was very disappointed with the run. The Stewards informed Trainer LN Danis to report back to the Stewards if there is anything amiss with the mare on returning to his stable. Their explanations were noted. A post-race veterinary examination of MANMADHAN revealed no significant finding.

The Stewards warned Jockey L Sofhan that in future he must obtain the Stewards’ permission to leave the jockey’s room prior to the conclusion of his riding engagements.

At the conclusion of an inquiry, App AM Aizat, the rider of SWAN SONG, in the presence of his Master, Trainer F Maynard, pleaded guilty to a charge under MRA Rule 44(2) in that he failed to arrive on course within the prescribed time prior to his riding engagement. In assessing the penalty, the Stewards took into consideration App AM Aizat’s guilty plea, mitigating factors, previous record and his submissions on penalty.  He was fined RM250/- and advised of his Right of Appeal.

The Stewards questioned Jockey Y Aify and Trainer L Moy, the rider and Trainer of THE MILLIONAIRE respectively, into Jockey Y Aify’s ride on the gelding. Jockey Y Aify explained that at about 100M after the start, he had to steady his mount to avoid the heels of DROGBA (App AK Lim) and as a result, was unable to be midfield as his instructions. He further stated that racing to the 700M, he again had to check off the heels of DROGBA and clipped that gelding’s heels, taking him back to last. He informed the Stewards that racing to the 200M, when drawing the whip, he dropped his reins for a short distance.

Trainer L Moy confirmed the instructions and after due consideration, the Stewards took into account what happened to THE MILLIONAIRE during the race and took no further action. The Stewards noted their explanations.

The Stewards questioned Trainer S Hamilton into the improved performance of GABBAR (S Salee). She explained that GABBAR has been racing consistently prior to its last start and today, the gelding was better suited in the going.

STIPENDIARY STEWARDS’ REPORT
SELANGOR TURF CLUB JANUARY MEETING 2017
SATURDAY, 7 JANUARY 2017

STATE OF TRACK: Good

(Running rail out 4M for the entire circuit)

Panel of Stipendiary Stewards:

Mr Michael Castillo (Chief Stipendiary Steward), Mr Thanaraja Kasinathan (Stipendiary Steward), Mr Nigel Chong (Cadet Stipendiary Steward) & Mr Jarry Chong (Stipendiary Steward).

RACE 1 (R044) CLASS 5 – 1300M (SHORT COURSE B)

STREET CHAMP became restless in the barriers and reared high in the air, dislodging Jockey C Goon out the back gate. Jockey C Goon was examined by the Club Doctor and was found unfit to fulfill his riding engagements for the remainder of the day. The gelding was withdrawn by order of the Stewards at 1:20pm. Trainer C Leck will be advised that STREET CHAMP will be required to pass a 1000M/vet (from the Starting Stall) test before being declared to race again.

SUPER EIGHTYTHREE (SS Vanan) was slow to begin.

DUBLEO BEAUTY (HK Cheng) jumped outwards and bumped KIM SALUTE.

DUBLEO BEAUTY, PHILIP (J Low) and GOLD STAR PRINCESS (App S Zulfikri) all raced wide throughout the event.

Making the turn at the 1000M, BLACK TRISTAR (App A Zaimuddin) raced ungenerously and got its head up when racing to the inside of KING OF SEAL (HS Gill).

DUBLEO BEAUTY had a tendency to lay in between the 400M to the 200M and had to be eased by its rider on several occasions.

Upon returning to scales, App M Hanif, the rider of KIM SALUTE, reported that his saddle slipped sideways slightly during running.

The Stewards questioned Jockey J Low into the riding tactics of PHILIP in particular in the home straight of the event. Jockey J Low reported that the gelding had a tendency to lay inwards and over the concluding stages, failed to respond to his riding and that was his reason for not riding out. The Stewards, after viewing the official patrol films, reminded him of his obligations to ensure that at all stages, he rides fully to the end of the line.

Stipendiary Stewards’ Report 1
SLTC, Saturday, 7 January 2017

The Stewards questioned Jockey J De Souza as to the riding tactics that were adopted on NEW CLASSMATE. At the conclusion of an inquiry, Jockey J De Souza, the rider of NEW CLASSMATE, was found guilty of a charge under MRA Rule 44(6) in that he failed to ride his horse out to the end of the race to the satisfaction of the Stewards. The particulars of the charge were that over the concluding stages, for 3 strides from the winning post, he dropped his hands and as a result, he ran fifth, allowing JP REGIS (App WK Lee) to finish fourth.

In assessing the penalty, the Stewards took into consideration that Jockey J De Souza was riding a favourite in this event and the nose margin between the 2 runners. Jockey J De Souza was suspended for a period of one (1) month with effect from 9 January 2017 and to expire on 8 February 2017, both dates inclusive. He was advised of his Right of Appeal.

RACE 2 (R045) CLASS 5 – 1300M (SHORT COURSE B)

The Stewards and 3 Veterinary Surgeons inspected REYSHA (J Shankar) at the blood sample collection area, in the presence of Trainer LN Danis. After extensive tests, the gelding showed very minimal lameness which was well within the acceptable level, however due to the slight swelling, the Stewards and Veterinary Surgeons were not totally satisfied and ordered the withdrawal of the gelding at 12:35pm. Trainer LN Danis was advised that REYSHA will be barred from racing for a period of 1 month and will be required to pass a 1000M/vet test after the completion of that period, before being declared to race again

CHASE THE DREAM (S Ruzaini) was slow to begin.

LIM’S CHARGE (HS Gill) reared outwards at the start, unbalancing its rider.

Shortly after the start, JET ACE (Lou Ho) was buffeted for some distance when WINGED FOOT (J De Souza) shifted outwards and STEERING (App A Zaimuddin) shifted inwards.

ACME (SS Vanan) had a tendency to over-race in the early stages, got its head up and raced ungenerously.

RAINBOW CENTRE (App SU Lim) and LIM’S CHARGE (HS Gill) raced wide in the early and middle stages.

Stipendiary Stewards’ Report 2
SLTC, Saturday, 7 January 2017

Approaching the 1000M, D’GREAT RICH (J Low) began to race fiercely, got its head up and had to be eased off runners in front and lost ground as a consequence.

Approaching the 200M, PATERSON ROAD (App M Hanif) had to be checked off the heels of LIM’S RESPOND (HS Gill) which commenced to give ground.

The Stewards questioned Jockey J De Souza and Trainer R Lines into the disappointing performance of D’GREAT WALL in this event. Jockey J De Souza stated that shortly after the start, the gelding appeared to race flat despite his efforts and he placed it under pressure in an endeavour to improve its position at the 800M but it failed to respond to his riding.

Trainer R Lines stated that he was happy with Jockey J De Souza’s ride as he rode to his instructions to gain a midfield position as in its previous start, it was ridden forward, had a tendency to over-race and failed to finish off over the final stages. Trainer R Lines further explained that he was happy with its work leading into the event and could not offer any explanation into the disappointing performance. The Stewards informed Trainer R Lines to report back to the Stewards if there is anything amiss with the gelding on returning to his stable. Their explanations were noted for future reference. A post-race veterinary examination of D’GREAT WALL revealed no significant finding.

RACE 6 (R049) CLASS 4 – 1200M (SHORT COURSE B)

Trainer A Scott was fined RM100/- under MRA Rule 65(5)(c) for failing to produce the declared colours on GREENSTONE (Y Aify).

The Stewards questioned Jockey HS Gill into the tactics that were adopted into his riding of KISS ME to the barriers in particular why he strongly galloped to the barriers. He reported that the horse has always been scratchy in its action and requires a good fast warm-up prior to its races and he further explained that in its previous race starts, he has done the same and the gelding has performed creditably. The Stewards, after reviewing its previous race starts, was satisfied and noted his comments for future reference.

Upon jumping, WONDERFUL SURPRISE (SS Vanan) jumped outwards and D’GREAT EMINENCE (J Low) jumped inwards resulting in CHINO DIABLO (App SU Lim) being placed in restricted racing room.

Approaching the 150M, DANCING TSURU (J De Souza) had a tendency to lay inwards resulting in the rider having to stop and straighten on several occasions.

Approaching the 100M, WONDERFUL SURPRISE had to shift out over the heels of LONESOME ME (App CK Khaw) in order to gain clear running.

The Stewards questioned Jockey Y Aify into the tactics that were adopted on GREENSTONE in particular in the front straight, why he failed to show sufficient vigour as required by the Stewards. Jockey Y Aify reported that on entering the front straight, the gelding had a tendency to lay inwards and as a result, he had to shift his whip from his right hand to his left hand in order to stop the gelding from hanging inwards and this placed him at a disadvantage as it was not his natural strong arm. He further explained that over the final 200M, the gelding continued to lay inwards and for this reason, he was

Stipendiary Stewards’ Report 5
SLTC, Saturday, 7 January 2017

unable to use the whip in the normal manner and the gelding is better suited to a longer distance.

The Stewards advised him that they were not fully satisfied, however, gave him the “benefit of the doubt” on this occasion. His comments were noted for future reference.

The start of this race was further delayed when SACRED CITY (J De Souza) proved difficult to be loaded into the barriers and when inside the barriers, reared on numerous occasions resulting in its off fore leg being stuck in the next barrier.

SACRED CITY will be required to pass a 1000M/vet (from the starting stall) test before being declared to race again.

Panel of Stipendiary Stewards:

Mr Michael Castillo (Chief Stipendiary Steward), Mr Thanaraja Kasinathan (Stipendiary Steward) & Mr Nigel Chong (Cadet Stipendiary Steward).

RACE 1 (R143) CLASS 5 – 1400M (LONG COURSE A)
SUCCESS ALL THE WAY STAKES

App R Fakruddin was fined RM100/- for negligence under MRA Rule 152(5)(a) for failing to utilize his claim fully on RUBICON.

SATELLITE LEGEND (Lou Ho) was examined by the Club Veterinary Surgeon behind the barriers at the request of Jockey Lou Ho as he felt that there was something amiss with the gelding’s actions. The gelding was subsequently passed fit to take its place in the field.

The start was further delayed when RUBICON (App R Fakruddin) was fractious behind the barriers and was difficult to be loaded into the barriers.

Upon jumping, ANGEL OF MINE (App WK Lee) shifted outwards and SIXDAY SEVENNIGHT (Y Aify) shifted inwards, severely crowding JUST NAME IT (App SU Lim) for room.

Stipendiary Stewards’ Report 1
SLTC, Monday, 30 January 2017

Approaching the 200M, RUBICON which was held up for a run, had to be eased off the heels of JERAM GLORY (M Ganeesh).

Upon returning to scales, App AK Lim, the rider of RAINBOW CENTRE, reported that his horse raced greenly.

The Stewards opened an inquiry into the tactics that were adopted on JERAM GLORY (M

Ganeesh) particularly in the home straight. The Stewards’ concern was Jockey M Ganeesh failed to take a run to the outside of WENONA’S LEGACY in the home straight when there was an opportunity to do so, and he elected to stay to the inside where in the opinion of the Stewards, there would be insufficient room to obtain a clear run.

After taking extensive evidence from Jockey M Ganeesh and Trainer WC Lim and after viewing the gelding’s previous race starts in particular its racing manners, the Stewards were satisfied with the Trainer’s explanations and gave Jockey M Ganeesh the “benefit of the doubt” on this occasion. Jockey M Ganeesh was cautioned in the strongest terms that when clear runs present themselves, he should ensure he attempts to take them if possible to gain the best possible placing.

RACE 7 (R141) CLASS 5 – 1400M (LONG COURSE A), SUNDAY, 29 JANUARY 2017, SELANGOR TURF CLUB JANUARY MEETING 2017

The Stewards took evidence from App M Hanif, in the presence of his Master, Trainer LN Danis. At the conclusion of the inquiry, App M Hanif, the rider of KABALI, pleaded guilty to a charge of careless riding under MRA Rule 44(9)(a)(ii) in that he allowed his horse to shift in whilst riding with the whip causing IT’S DONE MATE (App AK Lim) being interfered with and should have straightened his horse sooner than he did on this occasion.

In assessing the penalty, the Stewards took into consideration App M Hanif’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 App M Hanif’s suspension. He was suspended from riding in races for a period of two (2) Malaysian race days with effect from 5 February 2017 and to expire on 12 February 2017, both dates inclusive. He was advised of his Right of Appeal (12:40pm).

RACE 1 (R172) CLASS 5 – 1200M (SHORT COURSE A)

The Stewards questioned Jockey M Ganeesh, in the presence of Trainer PS Kumaran, into the tactics that will be adopted on KIM SALUTE in this event. Jockey M Ganeesh reported that from Barrier 1, he was instructed to go forward, and try and gain a position third or fourth placing and do his best in the straight to gain the best possible placing. Trainer PS Kumaran confirmed the instructions and this was supported by the Trainer’s Instruction Form. The Stewards informed Jockey M Ganeesh that they will be monitoring his ride.

Prior to being loaded into the barriers, AIR POWER (SS Vanan) reared high in the air, dislodging its rider. Jockey SS Vanan was examined by the Club Doctor and was passed fit to fulfill his riding engagements for the remainder of the day.

NOVEMBER SUCCESS (App WK Lee) jumped awkwardly and shifted inwards shortly after the start.

HAPPY AMIGO (J De Souza) jumped outwards, taking PRINCE NANO (App AK Lim) out onto HAHA BABE (App M Hanif) and as a result, those 2 horses lost ground.

Upon returning to scales, Jockey SS Vanan, the rider of AIR POWER, reported that his horse raced greenly throughout the event and Jockey C Goon, the rider of THE PROFESSIONAL, reported that the saddle on his horse slipped backwards during running.

The Stewards questioned Jockey M Ganeesh into his whip use on KIM SALUTE in particular in the home straight of this event as they were concerned that he may not have been striking the gelding, however, after viewing the official patrol films, the Stewards were satisfied and reminded him of his obligations.

STIPENDIARY STEWARDS’ REPORT
SELANGOR TURF CLUB FEBRUARY MEETING 2017
SATURDAY, 25 FEBRUARY 2017

STATE OF TRACK: Yielding
(Running rail in true position for the entire circuit)

Panel of Stipendiary Stewards:

Mr Michael Castillo (Chief Stipendiary Steward), Mr Thanaraja Kasinathan (Stipendiary Steward), Mr Nigel Chong (Cadet Stipendiary Steward) & Mr Jarry Chong (Stipendiary Steward).

RACE 1 (R265) CLASS 5 – 1200M (SHORT COURSE A)

CHAMPAGNE ROSE (App S Zulfikri) jumped awkwardly.

LAZAROO (HK Cheng) and YOU NEVER KNOW (App AK Lim) were both caught racing wide throughout the event.

Approaching the 700M, MY TOUCH (App A Zaimuddin) was momentarily restrained by its rider in an endeavour to settle the gelding and as a result, SUPREME SASSO (F Yap) which was following, was momentarily inconvenienced.

LAZAROO shifted out approaching the home turn and made turn awkwardly.

CONQUISTADOR (App T Krisna) had to shift out over the heels of ROCK AND STONE (S Sandana) and VAGABOND (App M Hanif) in an endeavour to gain clear running in the home straight.

Over the final 150M, MY TOUCH which had a tendency to lay inwards, had to shift off the heels of NEW CLASSMATE (App KC Wong) to gain a clear run.

The Stewards questioned Trainer C Leck and Jockey S Ruzaini into the disappointing performance of ARLO which was favourite in the betting market. Trainer C Leck explained that in his opinion, he was surprised with the betting of this horse as the gelding was having its first start for his stable and has shown marginal improvement. The instructions were to get back on the gelding, and try and gain a soft run in the early stages and by doing this, the gelding may be able to show some improvement to finish off its races.

Jockey S Ruzaini confirmed the Trainer’s Instructions, however, stated that he placed the gelding under pressure at the 500M but it failed to respond to his riding in the home straight and he could not offer any explanation on the disappointing performance. The Stewards took into consideration the margin of 5 ¼ lengths from the winner.

Stipendiary Stewards’ Report 1
SLTC, Saturday, 25 February 2017

The Stewards informed Trainer C Leck to report back to the Stewards if there is anything amiss with the gelding on returning to his stable. Their explanations were noted for future reference. A post-race veterinary examination of ARLO revealed no significant finding.

RACE 2 (R266) CLASS 5 – 1200M (SHORT COURSE A)

The start of this race was delayed when RUBICON (App AK Lim) proved difficult to be loaded into the barriers. RUBICON will be required to pass a 1000M/vet (from the starting stall) test before being declared to race again. The Club Veterinary Surgeon reported that RUBICON returned having bled. In terms of MRA Rule 92(3), it will not be permitted to canter or gallop on the main training tracks of any racecourse for a period of 2 months, be entered for a bleeder’s test for a period of 3 months, start in any race for a period of 3 months after such declaration, and then only after passing the bleeder’s test.

MY BEAUTY (App T Krisna) which dislodged its rider en route to the start, was examined by the Club Veterinary Surgeon and passed fit to take its place in the field.

Upon jumping, BAIL OUT (HK Cheng) reared high in the air and as a result, was slow to begin. When questioned, Jockey HK Cheng reported that his horse was in the barrier for too long and this may have contributed to this incident.

CIVIL UNION (A Nawawi) and BAIL OUT both raced wide throughout the event.

Q NINE MAC (HS Gill) had a tendency to lay outwards approaching the front straight on the run to the finish.

Shortly after entering the front straight, ACME (S Ruzaini) had to be severely checked by its rider when the gelding had a tendency to lay outwards over the heels of MY BEAUTY which rolled in marginally and as a result, lost ground.

Over the concluding stages of the event, JERAM GLORY (M Ganeesh) laid in under pressure.

The Stewards questioned Jockey HS Gill into the performance of Q NINE MAC in this event. Jockey HS Gill reported that after beginning well and over-racing, he found himself leading the event. Jockey HS Gill further stated that the gelding continued to have a tendency to lay outwards and over-raced, and he placed the gelding under pressure but it failed to respond to his riding. He further explained that carrying a heavy weight may have contributed to the disappointing performance of the gelding.

Stipendiary Stewards’ Report 2
SLTC, Saturday, 25 February 2017

After viewing the official patrol films of the gelding’s previous race starts, the Stewards were satisfied with the explanations given and noted his comments for future reference.

GREY IS POWER (App AK Lim) began awkwardly.

EAGLE SOAR (App T Krisna) and RAINBOW CENTRE (App SU Lim) were both caught racing wide throughout the event.

JUST DUIT which was beaten 21 lengths and GHOST ACE which was distanced, will each be required to pass a 1000M/vet test before being declared to race again for having a poor performance.

The Stewards questioned Trainer A Scott and Jockey S Ruzaini into the tactics that would be adopted on CLAIM in this event. Trainer A Scott reported that her instructions would be to try and gain a midfield position, and this was confirmed from the Trainer’s Instruction Form. She further stated that Jockey S Ruzaini must try to shift outwards in the home straight in order to gain a clear run as in her opinion, the gelding is better suited to be ridden in this manner. Jockey S Ruzaini stated the he was having his 2nd start on the gelding and he was fully aware of all the instructions given.

Following the running of the event, the Stewards questioned Jockey S Ruzaini into the tactics that were adopted on CLAIM as the concern of the Stewards was that in their opinion, Jockey S Ruzaini may have been able to shift out sooner in the home straight in an endeavour to gain a clear run to gain the best possible placing. He further stated that shortly after entering the front straight, he shifted outwards and rode hands and heels as he was instructed by the Trainer, however, it failed to respond to his riding and he commenced to use the whip sparingly and the gelding ran home okay.

The Stewards questioned Trainer A Scott into the tactics that were adopted on CLAIM in particular in relation to the change of instructions to be midfield rather than be on the pace as it has previously been in its previous starts. Trainer A Scott explained that in its previous race starts, CLAIM has been in weaker company and was satisfied with Jockey S Ruzaini’s ride on the gelding as he rode it to her instructions. She further stated that this horse is not an easy horse to ride and its normal rider, Jockey Y Aify is currently under suspension.

The Stewards were satisfied with their explanations and noted their comments for future reference.

Over the final 200M of the event, SOON I WILL (App S Uzair) shifted outwards abruptly and finished wide on the track.

Upon returning to scales, Jockey S Salee, the rider of MR VICTORY, reported that his whip broke during running.

RUSSELL THE CROWE (App S Zulfikri) had a tendency to over-race in the early and middle stages.

Stipendiary Stewards’ Report 4
SLTC, Saturday, 25 February 2017

Approaching the 300M, ONE FOR ALL (D Chong) shifted inwards resulting in BIRRALEE ROAD being tightened in onto DEKATI (M Ganeesh). Jockey D Chong was shown the official patrol films of the incident and was reminded of his obligations.

D’ GREAT LEGION had a tendency to lay outwards under pressure.

Upon returning to scales, App S Uzair, the rider of BIRRALEE ROAD, reported that his whip broke during running.

The Stewards questioned B Trainer Siva Kumar s/o Subramaniam, in the presence of Trainer PS Kumaran, into the tactics that were adopted on RUSSELL THE CROWE in the event. The Stewards took into consideration that the Trainer’s Instruction Form which was duly signed by both parties, stated that the gelding was to be ridden in mid-to-back position, however, on this occasion, the horse was found to be contesting for lead throughout the event.

When questioned, B Trainer Siva Kumar stated that it was a mistake on his behalf as he did change his instructions that were given to the Jockey. He believed that from a good barrier, to try and race in a forward position as was the case. The Stewards informed B Trainer Siva Kumar in the strongest term that in future should he wish to change his instructions, he should inform the Stewards prior to the race.Trainer PS Kumaran agreed with the Stewards’ observations and believed that it was not intentional on this occasion. The Stewards did not take any action, however, a warning was issued.

The Steward questioned Jockey J Low and Trainer R Lines into the performance of D’ GREAT LEGION in particular in the home straight of this event. Jockey J Low explained that approaching the 300M, he had to momentarily shift off the heels of TILSWORTH MALI (S Ruzaini) which rolled in marginally and shortly after this incident, was disappointed for a run between TILSWORTH MALI and LUCKY SIXTYSIX (S Sandana) and as a result, had to shift wider on the track to gain a clear run and lost valuable ground.

Trainer R Lines agreed with his rider’s explanation. The Stewards were satisfied as it was confirmed with the official patrol films and noted their comments for future reference.

GENERAL REPORT(S) – SLTC

RACE 2 (R173) CLASS 5 – 1200M (SHORT COURSE A), SATURDAY, 4 FEBRUARY 2017, SELANGOR TURF CLUB FEBRUARY MEETING 2017

The Stewards, on 21 February 2017 at the Selangor Turf Club, concluded an inquiry into the tactics that were adopted on ELEGENT in the above race.

Stipendiary Stewards’ Report 7
SLTC, Saturday, 25 February 2017

After taking evidence from Jockey Y Aify, the rider of ELEGENT, and Trainer Anna Scott, the Trainer of ELEGENT, and after viewing the official patrol films in particular the gelding’s previous race starts, the Stewards, acting on their own observations, found Jockey Y Aify 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 whilst riding ELEGENT in the above race, shortly after entering the home straight at approximately the 350M mark, Jockey Y Aify failed to shift ELEGENT outwards to gain a clear run when the opportunity presented itself and he elected to stay to the inside where in the opinion of the Stewards, was detrimental to his chances of gaining the best possible placing in the field. The Stewards were also not satisfied that Jockey Y Aify showed his normal riding style and displayed sufficient vigour between the 350M to the 150M where the horse ran home well into 5th placing beaten by a margin of 3 lengths from the winner.

In assessing the penalty, the Stewards took into consideration Jockey Y Aify’s mitigating factors, the betting market as ELEGENT was one of the favourites in the event, his previous riding record and submissions on penalty. He was suspended from riding in races for a period of three (3) months with effect from 22 February 2017 and to expire on 21 May 2017, both dates inclusive, to be served concurrently with his current suspension. He was also fined RM20,000/- and advised of his Right of Appeal (12:15pm).

Jockey Y Aify subsequently exercised his Right of Appeal. The appeal hearing against the penalty of the suspension of three (3) months and fine of RM20,000/- will be held at a date to be fixed.

RACE 1 (R274) CLASS 5 – 1200M (SHORT COURSE A)

SEA MASTER (J De Souza) which cast its near fore plate behind the barriers, was replated, examined by the Club Veterinary Surgeon and passed fit to take its place in the field.

FULL MEANING (Lou Ho) jumped inwards and inconvenienced LITTLE JUMBO (App AK Lim).

GRANDE AFFARE (App S Zulfikri) reared as the gates opened and was slow to begin. After viewing the barrier cameras, the Stewards were satisfied that the gelding became fractious prior to the gates opening and reared upon jumping.

SPARKLER (App CK Khaw) jumped awkwardly.

FULL MEANING had a tendency to over-race in the early stages despite the efforts of its rider, got its head up and raced ungenerously.

SEA MASTER, ELEGENT (M Ganeesh) and FULL MEANING were all caught racing wide throughout the event.

Approaching the 1100M, CHINO DIABLO (App SU Lim) had to be eased by its rider to avoid the heels of ABOVE THE MILLION (C Goon).

Approaching the 300M, VALBERRY (App M Hanif) was held up for a clear run behind SUPER GOOD (S Ruzaini) and had to shift out over that gelding’s heels to gain a clear run. Shortly after this incident, VALBERRY was placed in restricted racing room in between SUPER GOOD and SEA MASTER.

Stipendiary Stewards’ Report 1

FULL MEANING had a tendency to lay in despite the efforts of its rider from the 400M and approaching the 300M, inconvenienced ELEGENT. Approaching the 200M, FULL MEANING had a tendency to lay in despite the efforts of its rider and again momentarily inconvenienced SEA MASTER.

The Stewards questioned Trainer F Maynard into the improved performance of FULL MEANING given the gelding’s previous race starts. Trainer F Maynard explained that in his opinion, the rain-affected track, although “yielding”, suited the gelding. He further stated that it had just returned from a wind operation and had worked well throughout the week and expected an improved performance. The Stewards accepted Trainer F Maynard’s explanation and he was reminded of his obligations in relation to the Rules regarding in and out running.

Stipendiary Stewards’ Report 2
SLTC, Sunday, 26 February 2017

After viewing the official patrol films of this event and considering the evidence tendered, the Stewards acting on their own observations, App L De Souza pleaded guilty to a charge under MRA Rule 44(10) for failing to ride to the satisfaction of the Stewards. The particulars of the charge were that he failed to ride to the satisfaction of the Stewards from approximately the 300M to the winning post with sufficient vigour to gain the best possible placing.

Making the turn into the front straight, LITTLE MAN (SS Vanan) was held up for a clear run behind NOVEMBER SUCCESS (App WK Lee) and obtained an inside run as a result of NOVEMBER SUCCESS shifting outwards.

Leaving the 400M, STREET CHAMP laid in under pressure resulting in KABALI and FLY HIGH being taken in and as a result of this incident, PERFECT FIXER (J Low) and V FOR THAILAND (A Nawawi) were momentarily inconvenienced.

The Stewards questioned Jockey S Ruzaini and Trainer A Scott into the disappointing performance of PERFECTLY PERFECT in today’s event. Jockey S Ruzaini explained that after jumping well, he was able to gain a good midfield position, however, commenced to try and improve his position from the 1000M mark but the mare failed to respond to his riding despite his urging throughout the event. He also stated that he could not offer any explanation for the disappointing performance of the mare.

Stipendiary Stewards’ Report 6
SLTC, Saturday, 4 March 2017

Trainer A Scott stated that she was a lost to explain the disappointing performance and could not offer any explanation. The Stewards informed Trainer A Scott to report back to the Stewards if there is anything amiss with the mare on returning to her stable. Their explanations were noted for future reference. A post-race veterinary examination of PERFECTLY PERFECT revealed no significant finding and the mare was impounded. In terms of MRA Rule 117(3) in relation to inconsistent and unreliable running, PERFECTLY PERFECT will be required to pass a 1000M/vet test (after a 1-month embargo) before being declared to race again.

GENERAL REPORT(S) – SLTC

SATURDAY, 4 MARCH 2017, SELANGOR TURF CLUB MARCH MEETING 2017

App M Hanif was fined RM100/- for negligence under MRA Rule 50(4) for failing to submit his Permission to Ride Form to the Stewards on Saturday, 4 March 2017.

…………………………..

RACE 7 (R280), MAIDEN – 1300M (LONG COURSE A), SUNDAY, 26 FEBRUARY 2017, SELANGOR TURF CLUB FEBRUARY MEETING 2017

The Stewards concluded an inquiry into the tactics that were adopted on PICASSO and further evidence was taken from Jockey M Ganeesh and Trainer Anna Scott. The Stewards were of the opinion that the fact that PICASSO which returned after the race with respiratory tract abnormality, may have contributed into the performance of the gelding and did not take any action against Jockey M Ganeesh, however, reminded him of his obligations.

AMENDMENT

RACE 2 (R275) CLASS 4 – 1200M (SHORT COURSE A), SUNDAY, 26 FEBRUARY 2017, SELANGOR TURF CLUB FEBRUARY MEETING 2017

The Stewards questioned App L De Souza, in the presence of his Master, Trainer R Lines, into the tactics that were adopted on PERFECT RUN in the home straight in particular why App L De Souza failed to show any vigour in his riding style over the final 300M.

After viewing the official patrol films of this event and considering the evidence tendered, the Stewards acting on their own observations, App L De Souza pleaded guilty to a charge under MRA Rule 44(10) for failing to ride to the satisfaction of the Stewards. The particulars of the charge were that he failed to ride to the satisfaction of the Stewards from approximately the 300M to the winning post with sufficient vigour to gain the best possible placing.

In assessing the penalty, the Stewards took into consideration App L De Souza’s guilty plea, mitigating factors, previous riding record and his submissions on penalty. The Stewards, in not issuing a more severe penalty, also took into consideration that he has a limited race riding experience. Acting on the provisions of MRA Rule 48(5), the Stewards deferred the commencement of App L De Souza’s suspension. He was suspended from riding in races for a period of one (1) month with effect from 5 March 2017 and to expire on 4 April 2017, both dates inclusive. He was also advised that he must complete a series of trials to the satisfaction of the Stewards prior to riding in races again. He was advised of his Right of Appeal (2:40pm).
