PENANG  JANUARY MEETING 2023  SATURDAY, 14TH JANUARY 2023

RACE 1 (R 046) CLASS 5(B) – 1600M

 At the conclusion of the Inquiry today (Saturday, 28th January 2023) into the running and handling of JEFFREY (SU Lim) at Perak Turf Club.

 After hearing further evidence from Trainer HS Lim, the trainer of JEFFREY, Jockey SU Lim, the rider of JEFFREY and his witnesses Jockeys KC Tham and S Ruzaini and reviewing the videos, Jockey SU Lim was found guilty to a charge under MRA Rule 44(10) for failing to ride to the satisfaction of the Stewards. 

The particulars of the charge are that, after having been slightly inconvenienced at the start by LIM’S KEYWAY (R Rueven), Jockey SU Lim then allowed his mount to drop to the back of the field when his instructions were to be handy.   Thereafter, he took his mount unnecessarily wide entering the backstraight, placing it at a disadvantage.

In assessing the penalty, the Stipendiary Stewards took into account Jockey SU Lim’s disciplinary records and mitigating factors.   Jockey SU Lim was suspended from riding in races for a period of four (4) months, effective from Monday, 30th January 2023 and to expire on Monday, 29th May 2023, both dates inclusive.   In addition, Jockey SU Lim was fined the sum of RM20,000/-.   He was advised of his right appeal (12.00 noon).
