GENERAL REPORT(S) – SLTC

SATURDAY, 10 SEPTEMBER 2022 & SUNDAY, 11 SEPTEMBER 2022, SLTC SEPTEMBER MEETING 2022 

The Stewards reaffirmed the direction that Jockey R Rueven was not permitted to accept rides at any carded weight less than 54kgs.


 

RACE 6 (R1068) CLASS 4 (B) – 1250M (A LONG COURSE),          SATURDAY, 10 SEPTEMBER 2022, SELANGOR TURF CLUB SEPTEMBER MEETING 2022 

After taking evidence from Jockey HS Gill (WISHUPONASTAR) and the gelding’s Trainer, BT Lim, the Stewards found Jockey HS Gill guilty of a charge under 44(10) for failing to ride to the satisfaction of the Stewards. The particulars of the charge being:

  1. He restrained the gelding on jumping, resulting in the gelding having to be ridden wide; and

  2. His whip use in the straight, lacked validity and was in contrast to usage on other occasions.

In assessing the penalty, the Stewards took into consideration Jockey HS Gill’s mitigating factors, previous riding record and his submissions on penalty. He was suspended from riding in races for a period of three (3) months with effect from 12 September 2022 and to expire on 11 December 2022, both dates inclusive. He was advised of his Right of Appeal.


REPORT OF ANALYSIS ON NON RACE-DAY SAMPLE: 

TUESDAY, 23 AUGUST 2022

SLTC OFFICIAL BARRIER TRIAL                                                                           

A report dated 1 September 2022 (NRD/V22/005) from the Chief Analyst of Veterinary Forensic Laboratory stated that 2 bottles of coded urine sample and 2 sets of coded blood samples from the above mentioned SLTC Official Barrier Trial were received on 28 August 2022, for analysis under the MRA Rules and Regulations. No prohibited substances were detected except for sample coded “17044” which revealed the presence of furosemide. After decoding the sample number, it was established that this sample was reported to have been taken from the horse NICATOR, which was taken on Tuesday, 23 August 2022 at an SLTC Official Barrier Trial.

On 6 September 2022, Trainer SY Lim was advised of the contents of this report and his attention drawn to MRA Rule 134(12) which prohibits this horse from racing until it is cleared by the Stewards, and MRA Rule 137(1)/MRA Regulation 46.1 & 46.2 relating to the referee sample. An inquiry will be held at a date to be fixed.

The Stewards questioned Jockeys HS Gill (MONDAY) and KP Lim (BIG G) relating to contact made over the final 200M. Jockey HS Gill stated that he had been crowded from his outside after having made initial contact with BIG G and when cramped for room when using his whip, he believed that BIG G was attempting to savage his horse. As such, he had extended his right arm and fended the gelding off. Although accepting this explanation, the Stewards reminded Jockey HS Gill of his obligation and entitlement related to not interfering with any other runner.

The Stewards inquired into Jockey KP Lim’s riding of BIG G in this race. Evidence was taken from Jockey KP Lim and Trainer SY Lim, the rider and trainer of BIG G respectively.

The Stewards considered the evidence tendered and also reviewed the films of BIG G. Jockey KP Lim pleaded guilty to a charge under MRA Rule 44(10) for failing to ride to the satisfaction of the Stewards. The particulars of the charge being that the manner in which he failed to exercise any vigour and failed to pull his horse out when in contact with MONDAY (HS Gill) over the final 150M.

The Stewards took into consideration Jockey KP Lim’s guilty plea, riding record, mitigating factors and his submissions on penalty. Further, the Stewards considered that the contact made and maintained by MONDAY having shifted out, was a mitigating circumstance. Subsequently, he was suspended from riding in races for a period of three (3) months with effect from 29 August 2022 and to expire on 28 November 2022, both dates inclusive. He was advised of his Right of Appeal (7:02pm).

6 GOLDEN SPRINT(App WW Cheah) Ridden wide throughout from its outside draw. Returned cast off fore plate.
8 RUNNING SPIRIT(KP Lim) Crowded shortly after the start, losing considerable ground.

Jockey S Ruzaini (GOLDEN KING) explained that although instructed to ride in a handy position, he had been severely crowded at the start and had thus been worse than midfield. On straightening, the gelding had kept the bit on one side and had shifted out. Given that it was his first ride on the gelding, it had taken him by surprise and though attempting to straighten, he had been unsuccessful.

Trainer HY Cheng stated that GOLDEN KING was having its initial start in Malaysia and suggested that it was best suited by staying type races. He also stated that he put Blinkers/Pacifiers as the gelding trialed somewhat greenly. In light of this, Trainer HY Cheng was advised that GOLDEN KING will be required to pass a 1000M/vet test (3 weeks embargo) before being declared to race again.

However today, although instructed to ride a forward race, the gelding had shown no early pace and he pushed it, ridden vigourously from the start, he was of the opinion that the gelding had not appreciated racing week-to-week.

Trainer KC Tiang stated that he was disappointed in the manner in which STAR BULLET was ridden wide and highlighted that the gelding had finished only 7 lengths from the winner. However, given the nature of this performance, he undertook that he would not start STAR BULLET for 3 weeks.

Following the running of this race, the Panel of Stewards considered a complaint from a Jockeys’ contingent that the track was unsafe and further that their vision during the race were seriously impaired due to the rain and the kickback.

After considering the statements of the riders who had ridden in the race and also other riders who were declared to ride in later races, the Panel of Stewards, under the provisions of MRA Rule 12(2)(s), abandoned the remainder of the races at 4:02pm.

GENERAL REPORT(S) – SLTC

INQUIRY INTO A REPORT RELATING TO A POST-RACE URINE SAMPLE CODED “31229” TAKEN FROM THE HORSE “THUNDERGOD” WHICH FINISHED THIRD IN RACE 7 ON SUNDAY, 24 JULY 2022 AT THE SELANGOR TURF CLUB JULY MEETING 2022, AND WAS FOUND TO CONTAIN “FLUNIXIN” 

The Stewards concluded an inquiry into the above matter on Friday, 12 August 2022 at the Selangor Turf Club. Evidence was taken from Trainer HY Cheng, the Trainer of THUNDERGOD, Mr Lai Jek Shen (Assistant Trainer), Dr Melissa Yeap (Veterinary Surgeon of SLTC) and Dr Chan Sue Hay (Chief Analyst of Usains Biomics). 

Trainer HY Cheng was found guilty of a charge under MRA Rule 134(6)(a) in that he was the trainer and person responsible for racing the horse THUNDERGOD which finished third in Race 7 on Sunday, 24 July 2022 at the Selangor Turf Club, and its post-race urine sample was found to contain “flunixin”. 

In assessing the penalty, the Stewards took into consideration the nature of the drug involved, Trainer HY Cheng’s mitigating factors and previous record. Trainer HY Cheng was fined RM6,000/- and was advised of his Right of Appeal (3:55m). 

In addition, in terms of MRA Rule 134(11), THUNDERGOD was disqualified from the race and the placings were amended:

The Stewards, today, inquired into an incident at trackwork this morning.

After taking evidence from several persons attendant, Jockey KC Tham was found guilty of a charge of negligence under MRA Rule 152(5)(a) in that he failed to observe the “loose horse” siren and proceeded to ride pacework on I’M THE MAN when a riderless horse was still on the track, thereby endangering himself, other persons and horses on the track. Jockey KC Tham was fined RM500/-.

GENERAL REPORT(S) – SLTC

RACE 4 (R751) CLASS 4 (A) – 1500M (A LONG COURSE), SATURDAY, 25 JUNE 2022, SELANGOR TURF CLUB JUNE MEETING 2022 

The Stewards, on Wednesday, 29 June 2022, concluded an inquiry into the fall of Jockey J Daniel from KENG MAK MAK at the 800M in the above race. 

Jockey J Daniel confirmed that KENG MAK MAK was racing alone and unimpeded when flattering badly resulting in him being dislodged. AFALONHRO (App WW Cheah) which was following, collided with KENG MAK MAK and fell. 

The Stewards attributed the incident to KENG MAK MAK breaking down at this point. The gelding was subsequently euthanized.


RACE 10 (R747) CLASS 5 (A) – 1300M (C4 LONG COURSE), SUNDAY, 19 JUNE 2022, SELANGOR TURF CLUB JUNE MEETING 2022 

The Stewards, on Tuesday, 28 June 2022, inquired into Jockey KC Wong being dislodged from I LOVE YOU in the above race. Evidence was taken from Jockey KC Wong (I LOVE YOU) and App S Sia (MOONGATE FIVE), in the presence of his Employing Trainer, R Lines. 

App S Sia, the rider of MOONGATE FIVE, in the presence of his Employing Trainer, R Lines, pleaded guilty to a charge of careless riding under MRA Rule 44(9)(a)(ii) in that he shifted out slightly across the heels of FOREVER AND EVER (App I Fikri) near the 800M and this move caused I LOVE YOU to clip his heels and blundered, thereby dislodging Jockey KC Wong. 

In assessing the penalty, the Stewards took into consideration App S Sia’s guilty plea, his current record and also the fact that the level of culpability was at the lower end despite the causative effect of a rider being dislodged. He was suspended from riding in races for a period of four (4) Malaysian race days with effect from 11 July 2022 and to expire on 24 July 2022, both dates inclusive, to be served cumulatively with any other penalty. He was advised of his Right of Appeal.


FOLLOW-UP(S) – SATURDAY, 25 JUNE 2022

RACE 8 – FA FA STAR

Trainer S Deva Raj advised that FA FA STAR (8th) returned to the stables having pulled up well and was disappointed with the run. He further stated that he would have the gelding fully vetted and it was his intention to continue with FA FA STAR’s training regime.


FOLLOW-UP(S) – SUNDAY, 26 JUNE 2022

RACE 3 – JULIUS CAESAR

Trainer KF Coetzee reported that on returning to his stables, he considered JULIUS CAESAR (10th) had felt the effect of the firm track. Further that the gelding had won on a “Yielding” track at its previous start and on the straight course. It was his intention to monitor JULIUS CAESAR’s status and advise any issues, but JULIUS CAESAR would not start for at least three (3) weeks.

RACE 12 – THE JEWELLER

Trainer KF Coetzee reported that on returning to stables, THE JEWELLER had sustained an injury to its right eye. He advised that the injury would be treated and resolved before THE JEWELLER race again.

GENERAL REPORT(S) – SLTC

RACE 9 (R756) SUPREME A – 1250M (A SHORT COURSE), SATURDAY, 25 JUNE 2022, SELANGOR TURF CLUB JUNE MEETING 2022

 When questioned, Jockey R Woodworth (AWESOME STORM) stated that he had been instructed to go forward and to take a sit unless able to get a soft lead. He believed he had crossed easily from his wide barrier, although having to work in some regard to obtain the lead. Further that on straightening, although travelling well, as soon as he asked AWESOME STORM for an effort, the gelding failed to respond but only faded in the last 75M.

Trainer S Dunderdale confirmed these instructions, however, was of the opinion that AWESOME STORM had been asked to work too hard in being asked to lead and he considered that this had taken a toll on the gelding in the straight. He advised that AWESOME STORM had pulled up well and that the gelding would not start for three (3) weeks.
