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.
