Prior to the “All Clear” being given, the Stewards considered a complaint from Trainer KC Tiang related to SHINE SHINE being denied a fair start. It was ascertained that the gelding was indeed sitting back, nodding its head repetitively and that Jockey J Low had requested a handler. However, as the Starter was satisfied that the horse’s position did not pose a danger and it was indeed facing correctly, the start was effected. The Stewards concurred with the Starter that SHINE SHINE was not denied a fair start, as such it was declared a definite runner.

In assessing the penalty, the Stewards took into consideration App S Sia’s guilty plea, mitigating factors, previous riding record and his submissions on penalty. He was suspended from riding in races for a period of two (2) Malaysian race days, to be deferred, with effect from 6 June 2022 and to expire on 12 June 2022, both dates inclusive.

INVESTIGATION RELATED TO SAMPLE “31846” TAKEN FROM “SHANGHAI NIGHTS” IN RACE 5 ON SUNDAY, 15 MAY 2022 AT SELANGOR TURF CLUB

The Chief Analyst of Usains Biomics in a report dated 23 May 2022 (V22/074) reported the presence of “dexamethasone & xylazine” in sample coded “31846”. It was ascertained to have been collected post-race from SHANGHAI NIGHTS.

The Stewards reported in Race 5 on 15 May 2022 that SHANGHAI NIGHTS returned with exertional heat illness and will be required to undergo a veterinary examination (3 weeks embargo).

The SLTC Chief Veterinary Surgeon, Dr Shri Kanth advised the Stewards at that time that his staff had administered medicaments to the horse to ensure its welfare. These substances were noted on the MRA Post-Race Declaration Form.

The Chief Analyst reported the detection of two substances “dexamethasone & xylazine” only. When questioned on Tuesday, 24 May 2022, Dr Chan Sue Hay advised that her findings were consistent with the post-race administration. The Stewards were satisfied that all veterinary administrations were in order to save and protect SHANGHAI NIGHTS’ welfare and all substances were administered before any samples were taken.

The Stewards were satisfied that the provisions of MRA Rule 134, …

“… PROVIDED THAT no horse shall be deemed to have failed a post-race

screening test if the sole reason for such failure is as the direct result of

any treatment, given (after a race) to a horse that is in distress and/or

which requires urgent veterinary assistance, by the Veterinary Surgeon

on the authorisation of Stipendiary Stewards.”,

… ought to apply to sample “31846” and that no action is required other than SHANGHAI NIGHTS to undergo a veterinary examination (3 weeks embargo).

GENERAL REPORT(S) – SLTC

RACE 10 (R553) CLASS 4 (B) – 1200M (A SHORT COURSE), SUNDAY, 8 MAY 2022, SELANGOR TURF CLUB MAY MEETING 2022

The Stewards, on 13 May 2022 (Friday), concluded an inquiry into the apparent improved performance of ELISE. Evidence was taken from Trainer V Sivan. He advised that his instructions had been to position in third, fourth, which was consistent with his previous instructions, albeit that ELISE had been unable to be in this position at its last four runs.

He was surprised when ELISE was able to lead but suggested the smaller field (9 runners) and the moderate early pace (due to OBSIDIAN and TALENTED not attempting to lead) had been to ELISE’s benefit in getting a “soft lead”. He further advised that due to the Hari Raya Holiday, he had a paucity of track riders and thus ELISE had been freshened when its workload had been reduced. He believed this had contributed markedly to the gelding being able to race keenly and to lead.

In accepting his explanation, the Stewards advised Trainer V Sivan that it was expected that ELISE be ridden in a forward position in future.

RACE 11 (R554) CLASS 5 (A) – 1100M (A SHORT COURSE), SUNDAY, 8 MAY 2022, SELANGOR TURF CLUB MAY MEETING 2022

Trainer S Dunderdale was questioned as to the reason why SAND BANK did not wear Blinkers and was subsequently had not led. He advised that he had been absent from the races but consciously taking the Blinkers off SAND BANK as he believed that the gelding showed its customary early pace speed either with or without Blinkers which he had done for its entire career. He left it off on this occasion with a view in keeping the elderly gelding’s mind active and it was his intention to leave the Blinkers off. He suggested that Jockey J Daniel may not have been aware of SAND BANK’s idiosyncrasies as it was his first ride on the gelding.

FOLLOW-UP(S) – SATURDAY, 7 MAY 2022

RACE 3

Trainer C Leck advised that COLCHESTER (ninth) had pulled up well. Although he was disappointed in the performance but cited that the gelding was an unreliable type of horse and was inclined to hold his breath he was unable to get a forward position. It was his intention to continue the gelding’s training regime.

FOLLOW-UP(S) – SUNDAY, 8 MAY 2022

RACE 2

Trainer HY Cheng advised that EL MACHO (eighth) was identified to have back pain under the saddle region post-race. It was his intention to give the gelding a week off before recommencing training.

RACE 6

When questioned, Trainer HS Lim advised that AGUERO JR (seventh) transited poorly to KL and had lost considerable weight. On returning to his stable, he believed that this had taken the toll on the gelding and it was his intention not to start the gelding for 3 weeks.

RACE 9

Trainer HS Lim advised that HAZARD (eighth) had pulled up well and could only suggest that the interference the gelding had received near the 700M (See Stewards’ Report) had contributed to its poor performance. It was his intention to continue the gelding’s training regime.

RACE 11

Trainer R Lines advised that POWERFUL FIGHTER (eighth) had pulled up well, however, had shown no customary early pace and as such, was found wanting in the straight. It was his intention to continue with the gelding’s training regime and seek a lesser class race for his next start.

Trainer S Dunderdale will be questioned related to this issue.

STEWARDS’ REPORT

SELANGOR TURF CLUB MAY MEETING 2022

SATURDAY, 7 MAY 2022

STATE OF TRACK: Good

Course A (True Position)

Panel of Stewards:

2 Members of the Panel selected by the Committee

Mr Fin Powrie (Chief Stipendiary Steward)

Mr Thanaraja Kasinathan (Stipendiary Steward)

Mr Nigel Chong (Stipendiary Steward)

Veterinary Surgeons:

Dr Shri Kanth (Chief Veterinary Surgeon) & Dr James Yu.

RACE 1 (R533) CLASS 5 (B) – 1700M (A LONG COURSE)

1	MURDOCH (App Clyde Leck)	Rider warned related to his whip use in the early stages. *(See Report).
2	APOLLO ROCK (S Ruzaini)	Ridden wide in the early and middle stages, and taken wide in the straight. *(See Report).
3	GIGANTE DEL ANDRE (MM Firdaus)	Slow into stride.
7	E SUPREME (App WW Cheah)	Withdrawn at 12:41pm: Lame off hind – 1000M/vet (3 weeks embargo).
9	IRON FIST (J Low)	Obliged to race wide near the 1000M.

App Clyde Leck was questioned regarding his whip use on MURDOCH in the early stages. He advised that he had been instructed to ride the gelding vigourously as it was a lazy beginner and that his whip action was flicking in stride with the horse to attempt to get it to race in a forward competitive position. Whilst accepting this in part, the Stewards reminded App Clyde Leck that he must, at all stages, use his whip in a proper manner which is not considered as excessive.

When questioned, Jockey S Ruzaini advised that APOLLO ROCK had raced fiercely and he had a line of three horses in advance of him. The pace had steadied quickly and the gelding had then commenced to race very fiercely and he had taken it out as a safety measure. He had then been trapped three wide until straightening where the gelding commenced to hang out badly. He also believed APOLLO ROCK to be “bad in its actions” and he had thus only ridden the horse for approximately 200M before finishing last. A post-race veterinary examination of APOLLO ROCK revealed that it returned exhibiting signs of respiratory distress, and thus will be required to pass a 1000M/vet test (3 weeks embargo) with a senior rider before being declared to race again.

The Stewards identified an anomaly in the continuity of the running rail following the running of this race. An inquiry into this aspect will be conducted at a later date.

GUILTY PLEASURES

(App Clyde Leck)

Laid inwards over the final 200M, crowding SEVEN SUNDAE.

SEVEN SUNDAE

(SU Lim)

Raced wide in the early stages, was inclined to lay outwards near the 300M. When crowded, was carried inwards over the final 150M. *(See Report)

When questioned, Jockey SU Lim stated that he had been instructed to ride midfield, however, he had been caught four wide and had then gone forward to a leading position. On straightening, SEVEN SUNDAE had commenced to lay outwards and he had shifted his weight in an endeavour to straighten the gelding whilst riding it out vigourously. He became off balanced and shortly thereafter, hampered in his whip action when GUILTY PLEASURES shifted in, crowding him, he had then become awkwardly positioned and unable to fully utilize his whip in the right hand. The Stewards advised Jockey SU Lim that he should ride in a consistent and proper manner at all times.

GENERAL REPORT(S) – SLTC

RACE 2 (R428) CLASS 5 (A) – 1500M (C6 LONG COURSE), SATURDAY, 9 APRIL 2022

The Stewards, on 28April 2022 (Thursday), concluded an inquiry into the fall of BIG BANK (CK Khaw) and Jockey J Shankar being dislodged from MR EXCHEQUER and App AR Raiyan being dislodged from GHOST BAY.

After taking evidence from all riders and viewing the patrol footage of the incident, the Stewards considered that BIG BANK had a tendency to lay inwards when Jockey CK Khaw attempted a run outside the heels of SUN FORCE (App M Lukman). BIG BANK then struck the heels of SUN FORCE which was maintaining its true path, and fell. MR EXCHEQUER which was following, blundered badly, dislodging Jockey J Shankar and GHOST BAY then dipped when jumping the prone BIG BANK, dislodging App AR Raiyan.

The Stewards held no individual rider accountable for the incident.

INQUIRY INTO CIRCUMSTANCES SURROUNDING “I’M THE MAN” BEING PRESENTED TO TRIAL ON 11 APRIL 2022

The Stewards, on 26 April 2022 (Tuesday), inquired into the above matter and evidence was taken from Trainer HY Cheng. It was ascertained that I’M THE MAN was subject to a 1000M/Vet related to respiratory distress.

I’M THE MAN had been treated with Lasix on the morning of 11 April 2022 by a member of the Veterinary Department. Trainer HY Cheng was absent in Singapore at that time. The attending Veterinary had treated I’M THE MAN on the instruction of his Assistant Trainer with no reference to the trial later that day. The matter was identified prior to I’M THE MAN trialling and thus performed a “Barrier Practice” instead.

Whilst accepting this was a stable oversight, Trainer HY Cheng was fined RM1000/- for negligence under MRA Rule 152(5)(a) for having initially entered and erroneously presented I’M THE MAN for a test when it had been treated with lasix.

INQUIRY INTO A REPORT RELATED TO AN ALLEGED INCIDENT DURING TRACKWORK ON THURSDAY, 14 APRIL 2022 AT THE SELANGOR TURF CLUB

The Stewards, on 22 April 2022 (Friday), inquired into the circumstances surrounding the above matter. Evidence was taken from Senior Track Rider (STR) Rosli Bin Salleh and his Employer, Trainer KC Tiang.

STR Rosli Bin Salleh admitted that he had ridden HI BABY (H527) in an aggressive manner with his whip citing that the gelding had become agitated due to cavorting monkeys when he was returning from working on the Heath Track. STR Rosli Bin Salleh was fined RM250/- under the general provisions of MRA Rule 133(1)(g).

When questioned regarding the performance of WILDFIRE, Trainer HY Cheng stated he had instructed the gelding be ridden in a handy position from its wide barrier although it had been in second place at its previous start, which was contrary to his previous instruction.

It was also inclined to lay inwards onto the heels of BANGALORE (Y Aify) near the 275M. In light of this, the Stewards directed that WILDFIRE will be required to pass a 1000M/vet test before being declared to race again for its racing manners. Further, Trainer HY Cheng should consider which riders he would use on WILDFIRE in future to best control the gelding.

GENERAL REPORT(S) – SLTC

RACE 9 (R435) CLASS 5 (B) – 1100M (C6 SHORT COURSE), SATURDAY, 9 APRIL 2022, SELANGOR TURF CLUB APRIL MEETING 2022

The Stewards, on 14 April 2022 (Thursday) concluded an inquiry into the running and handling of SIEW YUK. Evidence was taken from App M Ekdihar, the rider of SIEW YUK, in the presence of his Employing Trainer, Mr SY Lim and Trainer MW Teh, the Trainer of SIEW YUK. Further Jockey C Goon tendered evidence related to his nine (9) rides on the gelding and that it was best suited ridden from behind.

The inquiry established that it was intended for SIEW YUK to be ridden in its customary position of mid-back. However, given that the distance of 1100M, was shorter than the gelding’s usual races, it was unable to keep pace with the field. It was also noted that SIEW YUK had slipped with its hind legs at the start, a fact which App M Ekdihar had omitted to report.

Trainer MW Teh supplied evidence of stable support for SIEW YUK. App M Ekdihar stated that he had stayed in the middle of the track in the straight rather than utilize the cutaway as he had gleaned that this was a preferred path. He had taken SIEW YUK outwards near the 250M to improve its position but COLCHESTER (App Clyde Leck) had shifted out in advance of him and he had to subsequently shift back to the inside.

After assessing the evidence, the Stewards gave App M Ekdihar the benefit of the doubt related to the genuineness of this ride. Further, he was reprimanded under the provisions of MRA Rule 44(11) for failing to report to the Stewards the fact that SIEW YUK had slipped on jumping.

TUESDAY, 12 APRIL 2022 (11am)

INQUIRY INTO A REPORT CONCERNING URINE SAMPLE CODED “J-4269” WHICH WAS TAKEN ON 2 APRIL 2022 AT THE SELANGOR TURF CLUB, WAS FOUND TO CONTAIN PSEUDOEPHEDRINE

A report of Sample No. J-4269 confirmed the presence of pseudoephedrine. Upon decoding, it was ascertained that the sample had been taken from Jockey S Ruzaini. Subsequently, Jockey S Ruzaini was stood down from races, trials & trackwork on Friday, 8 April 2022 under the provisions of MRA 136(3)(b).

An inquiry into the finding was conducted on Tuesday, 12 April 2022. Evidence was tendered that Jockey S Ruzaini had declared the use of a nasal decongestant as well as other vitamins and herbs on the Sample Card Declaration Form. Further, evidence was tendered that the nasal decongestant tablets, had been dispensed by his pharmacist.

The Chief Analyst of Usains Biomics Laboratory Testing Services Sdn. Bhd., Dr Chan Sue Hay confirmed that the findings were consistent with the declared medication.

The Stewards were satisfied that the failed sample was as a result of this medication and took no direct action related to the failed sample.

Jockey S Ruzaini submitted a “Clearing Sample”, results of which will be required before he is permitted to ride races, trials or trackwork. Further, given the evidence tendered related to him suffering a respiratory ailment, Jockey S Ruzaini will be required to produce a specific Medical Clearance before riding in races.

JOCKEY URINE SAMPLE – JOCKEY S RUZAINI

The Chief Analyst of Usains Biomics Laboratory, in a report dated 15 April 2022, stated that Urine Sample coded J-4275 which was submitted by Jockey S Ruzaini on 12 April 2022 is cleared of any prohibited substances and as such, Jockey S Ruzaini is cleared to ride in trackwork, trials & races.

FOLLOW-UP – SATURDAY, 9 APRIL 2022

RACE 5

A subsequent veterinary examination of JABBAR on 11 April 2022 revealed no significant finding. Trainer AB A bdullah advised that he considered JABBAR was unsuited by racing without cover and had been affected by being forced to cover ground. It was his intention to continue the gelding’s training program.

FOLLOW-UPS – SUNDAY, 10 APRIL 2022

RACE 3

A subsequent veterinary examination of D’GREAT LIGHT on 11 April 2022 revealed no significant finding. Trainer S Siva advised that he considered D’GREAT LIGHT had been severely restricted when racing on a cut up section of the track. Further that he would monitor the mare’s progress and advise any issues.

RACE 6

A subsequent veterinary examination of ROBBERY SON (last) on 11 April 2022 revealed no significant finding. Trainer S Siva advised that ROBBERY SON’s best performances had been on unaffected tracks and he believe that the gelding was not suited by the State of the Track. Trainer S Siva undertook not to start ROBBERY SON for 3 weeks.

RACE 10

A post-race veterinary examination and endoscopy of MORE THAN OIL revealed no significant finding. Trainer V Sivan was at a lost to explain the poor performance and undertook not to start MORE THAN OIL for 3 weeks.

Trainer HY Cheng stated that he had instructed that DESTINY CHILD be ridden in a midfield position, consistent with his previous instructions albeit that the mare had been on the pace at its previous start. Jockey KC Wong stated that the mare had shown no early speed and could not follow the pace of the race. He was of the opinion that it was better that he followed the field rather than attempting to make ground on the outside, given the rail being at 6M wide.

BARBARIAN

(L De Souza)

Awkward at the start. Raced wide throughout.

Prior to the “All Clear” being given, the Panel of Stewards assessed the start with regards to several horses and deemed that TILSWORTH JACOBI (App A Nazir) had breached the gate when fractious, dislodging its rider, with the dislodged rider impeding BROTHER WIND (App WW Cheah). As such, under the provisions of MRA Rule 115, BROTHER WIND and TILSWORTH JACOBI were declared non-runners. In this incident, BARBARIAN (L De Souza) which was drawn beside TILSWORTH JACOBI, was inconvenienced marginally. TILSWORTH JACOBI will be required to pass 1 Starting Stall test before being declared to race again.

Selangor Meeting – 9 April 2022

STEWARDS’ REPORT

SELANGOR TURF CLUB APRIL MEETING 2022

SATURDAY, 9 APRIL 2022

STATE OF TRACK: Good

Course C (Rail @ 6M & Cutaway)

Panel of Stewards:

2 Members of the Panel selected by the Committee

Mr Fin Powrie (Chief Stipendiary Steward)

Mr Thanaraja Kasinathan (Stipendiary Steward)

Mr Nigel Chong (Stipendiary Steward)

Veterinary Surgeons:

Dr Shri Kanth (Chief Veterinary Surgeon) & Dr James Yu.

RACE 1 (R427) CLASS 5 (B) – 1500M (C6 LONG COURSE)

4	SING DARCI (MM Firdaus)	Raced wide in the early and middle stages. An inquiry was opened into the improved performance. *(See Report)
5	GOLDEN CRAFTSMAN (Y Aify)	Vet inspection: Broken winded – 1000M/vet & scope at rest.
9	AIR POWER (L De Souza)	Jumped inwards at the start, bumping TRINITY REVIVAL.
10	TRINITY REVIVAL (App R Nuqman)	Bumped at the start.

Trainer KF Coetzee, when questioned regarding the significant improvement of form of SING DARCI (MM Firdaus), advised that at its 2 previous starts, SING DARCI had missed the start. It was adversely affected by either being placed in the stalls early or being delayed in the stalls due to an incident. This had caused the gelding to be slow into stride and then having to race within the field which it did not relish. He was also of the opinion that today’s race was a significantly weaker Class 5 (B) and the fact that it started from the outside barrier, it had been unimpeded and able to lead easily. The Stewards noted his explanation and Trainer KF Coetzee was advised that it was expected that SING DARCI maintain a consistent form in line.

AMENDMENT

RACE 10 (R404) CLASS 4 (B) – 1100M (C6 SHORT COURSE), SATURDAY, 2 APRIL 2022, SELANGOR TURF CLUB APRIL MEETING 2022

On inquiry, App S Sia, the rider of MISE EN GARDE, in the presence of his Employing Trainer, R Lines, pleaded guilty to a charge of careless riding under MRA Rule 44(9)(a)(ii) for shifting in at this stage.

In assessing the penalty, the Stewards took into consideration App S Sia’s guilty plea, mitigating factors, previous riding record and his submissions on penalty. He was suspended from riding in races for a period of two (2) Malaysian race days, to be deferred, with effect from 11 April 2022 and to expire on 17 April 2022, both dates inclusive. He was advised of his Right of Appeal.

RACE 4 (R366) CLASS 3 – 1100M (A4 SHORT COURSE), SATURDAY, 26 MARCH 2022, SELANGOR TURF CLUB MARCH MEETING 2022

SCOOBY DOOBY DOO was withdrawn when reported as being lame on the near hind and was imposed a 1000M/vet test.

A subsequent inspection of SCOOBY DOOBY DOO by the Chief Veterinary Surgeon revealed the gelding to be sound. This was again confirmed on 28 March 2022. As such, the embargo placed on SCOOBY DOOBY DOO (1000M/vet on 26 March 2022) is expunged.

FOLLOW-UPS – SATURDAY, 2 APRIL 2022

RACE 1

A subsequent veterinary inspection of HORSE KING on Tuesday, 5 April 2022, revealed that the gelding which was unplaced, had a punctured wound of the off hind fetlock. Trainer V Sivan’s representative advised that this wound would be treated and HORSE KING would return to work shortly thereafter.

RACE 6

Trainer F Maynard stated that OTTAWA which finished last, may have been affected by the nature of the track as it had travelled in a 3-wide position throughout, however, it pulled up well and it was intended to continue with the gelding’s training regime.

RACE 8

When questioned, Trainer R Lines advised that there were no real issues with the gelding post-race, however, it is noted in the Stewards’ Report that it had been trapped wide throughout. He further advised that it was the gelding’s worst performance in some time. It was his intention to continue with its training regime.
