PEARL KING, a course scratching as it had sustained swollen near knee, will be required to pass a veterinary examination before being declared to race again.

Emergency acceptors TRIPLE ONE D’GREAT and GOLDEN ROOSTER were withdrawn due to a capacity field.

WISAKA which was up 18kgs in body weight since its last run, was checked by the Club Veterinary Surgeon prior to the race and was passed fit to start.

After being loaded, WISAKA (R Rueven) which was fractious, became cast in the barrier and was taken out for veterinary examination.  GOLDEN KINGDOM (J Low) cast its near fore plate behind the barriers and had to be re-shod.

LUCKY GIANT (AK Lim) and WISAKA were examined by the Club Veterinary Surgeon behind the barriers and were passed fit to start.

LUCKY GIANT was slow to begin.

The saddle on SUNTZU (AM Aizat) slipped back during the running of the race.

Racing to the 1000M, WISAKA (R Rueven) had to check when MIGHTY PHOENIX (App P Mogun) which was hanging in, steadied off the heels of LOUEY VELOCE (App WW Cheah) and shifted in.  The Panel of Stewards noted that it is a racing incident and took no further action.

Prior to the ‘All Clear’ being given, an objection was lodged by Jockey R Rueven, the rider of WISAKA, placed 4th against MIGHTY PHOENIX ridden by App P Mogun, placed 2nd on grounds of alleged interference at the 1000M. 

After considering all the evidence and reviewing the films, the Panel of Stewards were of the opinion that the alleged interference had not affected the results of the race.  The objection was overruled and the results stood.
