RACE 10 (R1317) CLASS 4 (B) – 1300M (LONG COURSE B), SUNDAY, 21 OCTOBER 2018, SELANGOR TURF CLUB OCTOBER MEETING 2018

The Stewards, on 2nd November 2018 at the Selangor Turf Club, held an enquiry into the running and handling of JUBILATION (App N Varmah) which raced in a detached last place in the early and middle stages of the above race. They took evidence from App N Varmah and his Master C Leck, also the Trainer of JUBILATION.

App N Varmah stated that on jumping, JUBILATION had brushed with BOOSTER on his inside and then did not stride out to his satisfaction in the early and middle stages. He added that the gelding had started to move better in the straight and finished the race well. Trainer C Leck stated that in his opinion JUBILATION had been positioned too far back and that App N Varmah should have attempted to keep in touch with the other runners. However, he added that the gelding has issues with intermittent lameness and that on previous occasions when he has raced poorly, he was subsequently discovered to be lame. He explained that App N Varmah was aware of the horse’s veterinary history.

The Stewards also took evidence from Dr Shri Kanth (Senior Veterinary Surgeon), who had inspected JUBILATION post-race and Dr Edward Samuel (Veterinary Surgeon), who had treated the gelding the following day for a problem with his off-fore heel. JUBILATION displayed no abnormalities immediately post-race and after viewing the vision of the race, both veterinarians agreed with the observation of the Stewards that there was no discernible change in his stride pattern at any stage.

While acknowledging that App N Varmah is very inexperienced, and that he did express concerns about JUBILATION’s welfare immediately post-race, the Stewards considered his riding to be unacceptable in the circumstances. App N Varmah was found guilty of a charge under MRA Rule 44(10) for failing to ride to the satisfaction of the Stewards in that he rode with insufficient purpose and vigour throughout. In assessing the penalty, the Stewards took into consideration App N Varmah’s mitigating factors including his lack of experience, previous riding record and his submissions on penalty. He was suspended for 2 months with effect from 5^th November 2018 and to expire on 4^th January 2019, both dates inclusive. He was advised of his Right of Appeal (10:55am).

GENERAL REPORT – SLTC

RACE 10 (R1317) CLASS 4 (B) – 1300M (LONG COURSE B), SUNDAY, 21 OCTOBER 2018, SELANGOR TURF CLUB OCTOBER MEETING 2018

The Stewards, on 23^rd October 2018 at the Selangor Turf Club, enquired into the running and handling of MR CONNERY in the above race. They interviewed Apprentice WW Cheah, in the presence of his Master, Trainer R Lines, who is also the trainer of MR CONNERY.

Trainer R Lines stated that MR CONNERY is a horse who benefits from patient riding and needs further than the 1300M distance of this race. He explained that he had instructed App WW Cheah to ride the horse from the back of the field. App WW Cheah stated that he had been instructed to make his move at about the 600M and he did so by angling to the outside and asking MR CONNERY for an effort. He added that the gelding had commenced to lay inwards at about the 400M and he therefore decided to ride him with hands and heels in order to maintain a straight line.

The Stewards noted these explanations and also noted Trainer R Lines’ admission that MR CONNERY is a quirky horse and perhaps, in hindsight, not an easy ride for a very inexperienced apprentice. Trainer Lines was informed that in future App WW Cheah would only be allowed to accept rides that the Stewards deemed to be suitable. App WW Cheah was warned that in future he must ride all his mounts in such a manner as to leave no room for query.

RACE 2 (R1309) CLASS 5 (A) – 1400M (LONG COURSE B), SUNDAY, 21 OCTOBER 2018, SELANGOR TURF CLUB OCTOBER MEETING 2018

On 23^rd October 2018, the Stewards inquired into the conduct of Trainer SY Lim before Race 2 on 21^st October 2018. He had informed a Stipendiary Steward prior to the race that WE’RE THE WORLD, normally a forward runner, would be ridden from midfield and an announcement was made to that effect for the benefit of the betting public. However, in the race itself, WE’RE THE WORLD jumped alertly, took the lead in the early stages, was never headed thereafter and won by two lengths.

Trainer SY Lim stated that he had been attempting to comply with his responsibilities under MRA Rule 35(8) and it was not his intention to mislead. He had, in fact, instructed App WK Lee to ride WE’RE THE WORLD from midfield as he felt that the gelding would struggle to obtain a forward position from the outside barrier. He had further instructed App WK Lee to allow WE’RE THE WORLD to stride forward or even take the lead if it proved difficult to settle. He accepted that he had only communicated the first part of those instructions to Stipendiary Steward Nigel Chong.

Trainer SY Lim pleaded guilty to a charge of negligence under MRA Rule 152(5)(a) in that when notifying the Stewards of his intention for WE’RE THE WORLD to be ridden in a manner different from its most recent start or starts, he did so in a manner that caused the Stewards to give out incorrect information. He was fined RM250/-.

TUESDAY, 23 OCTOBER 2018, SLTC OFFICIAL BARRIER PRACTICE

The Club Veterinary Surgeon reported that HAPPY FAMILY (R406) bled and will be barred from racing for a period of three (3) months under MRA Rule 92(3), and thereafter will be required to pass a bleeder’s test before being declared to race again.

RACE 8 (R1133) CLASS 3 – 1400M (SHORT COURSE A), SUNDAY, 9 SEPTEMBER 2018, SELANGOR TURF CLUB SEPTEMBER MEETING 2018

The Stewards, on 20 September 2018 at the Selangor Turf Club, concluded an inquiry into the running and handling of BLACK THORN. Evidence was taken from Jockey C Goon and Trainer SY Lim, the rider and trainer of BLACK THORN respectively.

After reviewing the vision of the race and considering the evidence tendered, Jockey C Goon was found guilty of a charge of incompetent riding under MRA Rule 44(9)(b)(iii).

The particulars of the charge were that:

1. By his own admission, he was not confident to switch his whip to the left hand and to use it accordingly, when it may have been the most appropriate course of action due to BLACK THORN’s tendency to lay inwards.

2. On several occasions in the last 200M, his attempted whip strikes made no contact with BLACK THORN.

In assessing the penalty, the Stewards took into consideration Jockey C Goon’s 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 six (6) weeks with effect from 24 September 2018 and to expire on 4 November 2018, both dates inclusive.

GENERAL REPORT(S)

RACE 3 (R933) CLASS 4 – 1300M, SATURDAY, 28^TH JULY 2018,

2^ND DAY, PENANG SPRINT TROPHY MEETING 2018

The Stewards today (29^th July 2018) continued their Inquiry into the performance of HORSE WARRIOR in the above race. Further evidence was taken from Trainer K Coetzee and Jockey HS Gill. Trainer K Coetzee explained that his instructions were to ride the gelding from midfield to back as HORSE WARRIOR was having its first start since 17^th October 2017. Trainer K Coetzee stated that HORSE WARRIOR had bled during the trial on 24^th October 2017 and had been sent for a very long spell. The horse was resuming after passing its bleeder’s test on 22^nd June 2018. Trainer K Coetzee further explained that the gelding had been working well. Jockey HS Gill stated that his instructions were to race from midfield to back, however, the gelding was not showing much pace from the 800M despite his urging and was racing further back in the field than he anticipated. However, the gelding started to improve from the 300M when he rode vigorously with the whip and did finish off the race well. The Stewards advised Jockey HS Gill that he might have got too far back in the early stages of the race and he was warned to ride his horses in such a manner so as to leave no room for query.

Trainer K Coetzee’s explanation was noted.

RACE 4 (R934) CLASS 4 – 1600M, SATURDAY, 28^TH JULY 2018,

2^ND DAY, PENANG SPRINT TROPHY MEETING 2018

The Stewards today (29^th July 2018) concluded an Inquiry into the poor performance of BAHAR in the above race. Evidence was taken from Trainer F Maynard and Jockey S Ruzaini, the trainer and rider of BAHAR respectively. Trainer F Maynard stated that after the gelding’s run in its last start, his instructions were to sit midfield to allow the horse a chance to settle and finish the race off. Jockey S Ruzaini stated that after getting a fair jump, BAHAR was very difficult to settle going into the first turn and had to be restrained from getting onto the heels of D’GREAT GLORY (App KC Wong). Passing the 1000M, BAHAR again commenced to over-race and was difficult to settle. From the 600M when he placed the gelding under pressure, it failed to respond to his riding and was very disappointing in the finish.

The Stewards noted the explanations tendered by Jockey S Ruzaini and Trainer F Maynard. However, Trainer F Maynard was advised that should he make changes to his riding tactics, he should inform the Stewards. Jockey S Ruzaini was advised to ride his mounts so as to leave no room for query. BAHAR which raced poorly, will be required to pass a test (1000M/vet) before being declared to race again.

Jockey J Low, the rider of RANT AND RAVE, was found guilty of a charge of careless riding under MRA Rule 44(9)(a)(ii) in that he allowed his mount to drift inwards and did not leave sufficient room for the horses on his inside.

In assessing the penalty, the Stewards took into consideration Jockey J Low’s 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 Jockey J Low’s suspension. He was suspended from riding in races for a period of two (2) Malaysian race days with effect from 30 July 2018 and to expire on 5 August 2018, both dates inclusive. He was advised of his Right of Appeal (2:35pm).

Jockey SU Lim, the rider of EMPEROR WARRIOR, pleaded guilty to a charge of careless riding under MRA Rule 44(9)(a)(ii) in that he crossed BRILLIANT STAR and ELITE GUSTAVO when not fully clear, causing ELITE GUSTAVO to become unbalanced and push BRILLIANT STAR outwards onto LIM’S RANGER, which was simultaneously crowded to the inside of RANT AND RAVE. As a result, LIM’S RANGER clipped the heels of RANT AND RAVE and blundered.

In assessing the penalty, the Stewards took into consideration Jockey SU Lim’s guilty plea, mitigating factors, previous riding record and his submissions on penalty. He was suspended from riding in races for a period of three (3) Malaysian race days.

Jockey SU Lim subsequently exercised his Right of Appeal and applied for a Stay of Sentence. The Stewards considered the application for a stay which was allowed. The appeal hearing will be held at a date to be fixed.

RACE 5 (R879) METRO A (SW) – 1200M (SHORT COURSE A), SUNDAY, 15 JULY 2018, SELANGOR TURF CLUB JULY MEETING 2018

The Stewards, on 24 July 2018 at the Selangor Turf Club, continued an inquiry into the circumstances surrounding App AM Aizat returning to scales 1.8kgs overweight on D’GREAT CONQUEROR, unplaced, in the above race.

The Stewards took further evidence from App AM Aizat, the rider of D’GREAT CONQUEROR, in the presence of his Master, Trainer F Maynard and Track Rider Muhammad Aiman Bin Mohd Nazir (TR.110), an employee of Trainer F Maynard. They also further examined the CCTV footage available from the scales area.

App AM Aizat, the rider of D’GREAT CONQUEROR, in the presence of his Master, Trainer F Maynard was found guilty of a charge of under MRA Rule 121(7) in that due to his negligence, D’GREAT CONQUEROR carried 1.8kgs overweight.

The particulars of the charge were that:

he failed to ensure that his saddle was passed to Trainer F Maynard.
he failed to notice that D’GREAT CONQUEROR had been fitted with a saddle that did not belong to him, although by his own admission the saddle in question was a different colour to the one he had weighed out with.

In assessing the penalty, the Stewards took into consideration App AM Aizat’s 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 AM Aizat’s suspension. He was suspended from riding in races for a period of two (2) Malaysian race days with effect from 30 July 2018 and to expire on 5 August 2018, both dates inclusive. He was advised of his Right of Appeal (2:55pm).

RACE 7 (R900) CLASS 4 – 1400M (LONG COURSE B), SATURDAY, 21 JULY 2018, SELANGOR TURF CLUB JULY MEETING 2018

The Stewards continued an inquiry from 21 July 2018 (Saturday) into the running and handling of ELEGENT (App AK Lim) in the above race. On 24 July 2018 (Tuesday), Trainer SY Lim admitted a breach of MRA Rule 35(8) in that he failed to notify the Stewards that ELEGENT was to be ridden differently to its most recent starts.

ELEGENT was restrained to sit behind the leaders on both 8 July 2018 [Race 1(R843)] and 15 July 2018 [Race 2 (R876)], but took the lead in this race.

The Stewards fined Trainer SY Lim RM500/- under MRA Rule 35(8).

RACE 10 (R903) CLASS 5 – 1400M (LONG COURSE B), SATURDAY, 21 JULY 2018, SELANGOR TURF CLUB JULY MEETING 2018

The Stewards, on 24 July 2018 at the Selangor Turf Club, concluded an inquiry into the running and handling of BEAUTIFUL BABY. Evidence was taken from Jockey SU Lim and Trainer SY Lim, the rider and trainer of BEAUTIFUL BABY respectively.

Trainer SY Lim stated that on its previous start at Perak Turf Club on 1 July 2018, BEAUTIFUL BABY had taken the lead and performed well. However, he had noted that BEAUTIFUL BABY had been successful in Singapore with more patient tactics. He therefore instructed Jockey SU Lim to take a position in midfield, which he reported to the Stewards prior to the race.

Jockey SU Lim explained that BEAUTIFUL BABY received some pressure after the jump from RED SAPPHIRE (J Low) on her inside. He therefore decided to drop back in the field to get away from RED SAPPHIRE, and shifted the mare across to the inside rail where he elected to follow PATERSON ROAD (Y Aify). However, as PATERSON ROAD was allowed to drop back through the field into a mid to back position, he found himself placed further away from the leaders than ideal. He added that BEAUTIFUL BABY finished the race well and would be better suited by a longer distance than the 1400M of this race.

Trainer SY Lim stated that his plan was to find a suitable 1600M race for BEAUTIFUL BABY next up, and to instruct the rider to take a midfield position.

The Stewards noted their explanations.

From the 800M, he again travelled wide and commenced to ride BALBOA vigorously with the whip for some distance but the gelding failed to respond to his riding and on entering the straight, he again used the whip but the gelding failed to respond and finished the race off poorly. Trainer K Coetzee explained that he was disappointed with BALBOA’s performance today and that in the races that the gelding had won, it had been able to lead easily and did its best. Both explanations were noted. Trainer K Coetzee was advised to report to the Stewards should he find anything amiss with BALBOA during the week.
