The Stewards reviewed the start pertaining to LINDA KHAN drawn in stall gate number 10. In this regard, it was established that prior to the start being effected, LINDA KHAN was restless in the gates and as the start was effected, the filly had bumped the front gate which resulted in it opening marginally earlier than the other stalls. The Stewards were of the view that this horse was afforded the opportunity of a fair start by the Starter, did not gain any advantage from its gate opening slightly earlier, and had jumped awkwardly in its own accord. Therefore, LINDA KHAN was deemed to be a runner in this race.

Slow to begin. Dropped whip at the concluding stages. Fined RM250/- for negligence under MRA Rule 152(5)(a).

At the conclusion of an inquiry, Jockey WW Cheah, the rider of ACROBAT, was found guilty of a charge of careless riding under MRA Rule 44(9)(a)(ii) in that whilst riding ACROBAT he failed to ensure that he did not cause interference to JB KAINGEH at the 1000M.

In assessing the penalty, the Stewards took into consideration Jockey WW Cheah’s mitigating factors, previous riding record and his submissions on penalty. He was suspended from riding in races for a period of one (1) Malaysian race day with effect from 22 July 2024 and to expire on 28 July 2024, both dates inclusive.  In lieu of one (1) Malaysian race day, he was also fined RM2,000/–.  He was advised of his Right of Appeal.

Jockey S Ruzaini (HAPPY PRINCESS) appeared before the Panel of Stewards, and was afforded an opportunity to place on record any factors which in his opinion, had contributed to HAPPY PRINCESS performing below market expectations (RM6/- favourite). In this regard, he explained that his instructions were to go forward from the jump and take cover in second or midfield. He explained that after jumping fairly, obtaining cover and travelling well through the middle stages of the race, when entering the straight, he switched his mount out for a clear run, however, upon asking it for its final finishing burst, this mare had nothing to come and in his opinion, was amiss in the run. In view of this report, a subsequent veterinary examination was requested on HAPPY PRINCESS which revealed no significant finding and this mare was impounded by the Stewards.

Trainer KC Tiang (HAPPY PRINCESS) appeared before the Panel of Stewards and confirmed the statements given by Jockey S Ruzaini in relation to him. He further explained that he was satisfied with the ride of Jockey S Ruzaini but disappointed with the mare’s run and would await the findings of the veterinary surgeon.

WAR SNIPER

(WW Cheah)

Vet inspection: No significant finding.

The Stewards granted permission for Jockey HS Gill to replace Jockey S Salee as the rider of LEATHERHEAD as the latter was unable to make the carded weight. Jockey S Salee was fined RM250/- under MRA Rule 107(10) for failing to make carded weight. He was also advised that his weight was limited to 53 ½ kgs.

Between the 1200M and the 1100M, SAN ANDREAS (O Chavez) was squeezed, tightened for galloping room and inconvenienced for a number of occasions by REVOLUTION (C Perkins) which shifted in continually. This resulted in this gelding clipping heels, going amiss, striking the rail and dislodging Jockey O Chavez. Jockey O Chavez was examined by the Club Doctor who stood him down from his riding engagements for the remainder of the races today.

At the conclusion of an inquiry, Jockey C Perkins, the rider of REVOLUTION, pleaded guilty to a charge of careless riding under MRA Rule 44(9)(a)(ii) in that he failed to ensure that he did not cause interference to SAN ANDREAS between the 1200M and the 1100M.

In assessing the penalty, the Stewards took into consideration Jockey C Perkin’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) race days with effect from 8 July 2024 and to expire on 21 July 2024, both dates inclusive. He was advised of his Right of Appeal.

GENERAL REPORT(S) – SLTC

RACE 6 (R0574) SUPREME C – 1600M (LC A6), SATURDAY, 15 JUNE 2024, SELANGOR TURF CLUB JUNE MEETING 2024

The Stewards, on Thursday, 20 June 2024 at SLTC, concluded an inquiry into the running and handling of SEMANTAN PRINCE and took evidence from Jockey R Shafiq and Trainer S Dunderdale, the rider and trainer of SEMANTAN PRINCE respectively.

The Stewards reviewed the films of the incident and considered the evidence tendered. Jockey R Shafiq, the rider of SEMANTAN PRINCE, was found guilty of a charge under MRA Rule 44(10) for failing to ride to the satisfaction of the Stewards. The particulars of the charge being that in Race 6 on 15 June 2024 at the Selangor Turf Club, he failed to ride to the satisfaction of the Stewards in that:

  1. Despite having the opportunity to shift outside runners and into the clear, entering the straight, he shifted his mount in against its winning pattern, despite there being no clear running for him and multiple horses ahead racing in the running line and/or near the inside rail;

  2. When a run appears for him leaving the 550M, between the 550M and the 150M, his riding was passive, non-vigourous, lacking in intent and a deviation from the norm; and

  3. Throughout the straight, he failed to and/or at the very least attempt to obtain a position for his mount which affords it the best opportunity to obtain clear running. With the consequences of such positioning being that SEMANTAN PRINCE became baulked for a clear run inside the 150M and races to the line untested and not fully extended.

In assessing the penalty, the Stewards took into consideration Jockey R Shafiq’s mitigating factors, previous riding record and his submissions on penalty. He was suspended from riding in races for a period of two (2) months with effect from 24 July 2024 and to expire on 23 September 2024, both dates inclusive, to be served consecutively with any other penalty. He was advised of his Right of Appeal.
