The Stipendiary Stewards concluded an inquiry into the running and handling of D’GREAT LUCK ridden by App KC Wong in the above race, at the Perak Turf Club on Friday, 16th November 2018.

Evidence was taken from App KC Wong, the rider of D’GREAT LUCK in the presence of his master Trainer KL Chong and Trainer S Cook, the trainer of D’GREAT LUCK.

Trainer S Cook’s instructions were to get a good jump, travel comfortably, mid-field.

App KC Wong explained that after getting a fair jump, he managed to settle mid-field until racing to the 1100M, when BM POWER (Z Khairil) threw its head up and lost ground, resulting in D’GREAT LUCK which was following, having to steady and lose ground and as a consequence, got further back in the field than anticipated.

App KC Wong further explained that from the 600M, the gelding only responded fairly to his riding and when he put D’GREAT LUCK under pressure from the 300M, it only ran on fairly.

The Stewards noted their explanations and no further action was taken.

STIPENDIARY STEWARDS’ INQUIRY INTO THE RUNNING AND HANDLING OF “NOVA DASHING” IN RACE 6 (R1352) [CLASS 5(A) – 1200M] 2nd DAY, SUNDAY, 28th OCTOBER 2018, PENANG OCTOBER MEETING 2018

The Stipendiary Stewards concluded an inquiry into the running and handling of NOVA DASHING ridden by App KC Wong in the above race, at the Perak Turf Club on Friday, 16th November 2018.

Evidence was taken from App KC Wong, the rider of NOVA DASHING in the presence of his master Trainer KL Chong and Trainer S Cook, the trainer of NOVA DASHING.

Trainer S Cook’s instructions were to get a good jump, travel comfortably, mid-field.

App KC Wong explained that NOVA DASHING was slow to begin and then showed no early pace despite being urged. He further stated that at about the 1000M, SUPER HARD (S Ruzaini) raced tight on his outside and he had to steady at the 800M. Shortly thereafter, racing to the 600M, SUPER HARD rolled in, resulting in him having to steady again. From thereon, when he drew the whip at the 250M, the horse failed to respond and was disappointing.

Trainer S Cook explained that on the morning of the race, he had called the PNTC Veterinary Surgeon to inspect NOVA DASHING and after inspection, the horse was declared fit to race.

Trainer S Cook reported that upon returning to the stables at PRTC, NOVA DASHING underwent antibiotic treatments for 4 days. The Stewards accepted their explanations and no further action was taken.
