He also had been unable to progress as TRINITY TARZAN was unable to accelerate and as a consequence, he had raced wide until straightening with the gelding fading badly in the straight.

Jockey Y Aify was questioned regarding his riding style of AMAZING CHOICE over the final stages. Trainer F Maynard advised that AMAZING CHOICE was a very heavy-fronted horse and was inclined to need holding together.

Jockey Y Aify, when questioned, advised that he had not departed from his normal style although agreed it differed from the style adopted on SKYFALL (winner of Race 9), explaining the difference in the horse’s movement and that AMAZING CHOICE was a very heavy-fronted horse.

GENERAL REPORT(S) – SLTC

RACE 2, SATURDAY, 26 FEBRUARY 2022, SELANGOR TURF CLUB

On Monday 28th March 2022 a veterinary inspection of PIT BULL which trailed the field and finished last (see race report) revealed that the gelding was lame near fore and near hind, and found to have muscle atrophy over the left gluteus muscle.

In light of this significant clinical report, Trainer K C Tiang was advised not to enter PIT BULL to race for three (3) weeks.


RACE 3, SATURDAY, 26 FEBRUARY 2022, SELANGOR TURF CLUB

On Monday 28th March 2022 a veterinary inspection of SAND BANK revealed no abnormalities.

Trainer S Dunderdale advised that SAND BANK’s best races had been on firm going and he considered that after being caught wide when attempting to attain his normal leading position, the gelding had been on going which it did not relish. It was his intention to continue with the gelding training program and seek a short distance race in a fortnight.


RACE 8, SATURDAY, 26 FEBRUARY 2022, SELANGOR TURF CLUB

On Monday 28th March 2022 a veterinary inspection of TOPMOST, which did not show its customary pace and finished last, revealed that it was lame near fore fetlock.

Trainer H Y Cheng stated that it was his intention to have TOPMOST fully vetted and that the gelding would not start for 3 weeks.


INVESTIGATION RELATED TO SAMPLE “31520” TAKEN FROM “MARINE VANGUARD” AFTER WINNING IN RACE 10 (R351) ON SUNDAY, 20 MARCH 2022 AT SELANGOR TURF CLUB

The Chief Analyst of Usains Biomics in a report dated 25 March 2022 (V22/040) reported the presence of “flunixin, dexamethasone” in sample coded “31520”. It was ascertained to have been collected post-race from MARINE VANGUARD.

The Stewards reported in Race 10 on 20 March 2022 that MARINE VANGUARD returned with exertional heat illness and will be required to undergo a veterinary examination (1 week embargo).

The SLTC Chief Veterinary Surgeon, Dr Shri Kanth advised the Stewards at that time that he had administered medicaments to MARINE VANGUARD to ensure its welfare. These substances were administered prior to sampling and noted on the MRA Post-Race Declaration Form.

The Chief Analyst reported detection of two (flunixin, dexamethasone) substances only. The Stewards questioned the Chief Analyst, Dr Chan Sue Hay on 26 March 2022 where she was advised that MARINE VANGUARD had been administered with “flunixin and dexamethasone” by Dr Shri whilst he cooled the distress horse in the paddock post-race. All veterinary administrations were in order to save and protect MARINE VANGUARD’s welfare and all substances were administered before any samples were taken. 

The Stewards are 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 “31520” and that no further action is required other than MARINE VANGUARD undergo a veterinary examination before declaration.


APPEAL BY JOCKEY M GANEESH AGAINST THE DISQUALIFICATION OF EIGHTEEN (18) MONTHS AND FINE OF RM50,000/- FOR CONTRAVENTION OF MRA RULE 44(7) (MERITS) IMPOSED BY THE PANEL OF STEWARDS IN CONNECTION WITH HIS RIDING OF RACEHORSE “CHINESE TEA” IN RACE 6 (R761) ON SUNDAY, 10 OCTOBER 2021, SELANGOR TURF CLUB OCTOBER MEETING 2021 

The Selangor Turf Club Appeal Panel heard the above appeal on 18 March 2022 (Friday).

The Appeal Panel heard submissions from Counsels Mr VK Raj and Ms SP Devi from Messrs A. Rajadurai P. Kuppusamy & Co. Evidence was also given by Jockey M Ganeesh, the rider of CHINESE TEA, Mr Lim Chun How, the Owner of CHINESE TEA, Dr Shri Kanth, Senior Veterinary Surgeon of SLTC and the SLTC Chief Stipendiary Steward. 

After considering the evidence, including review of the race video and other performances of CHINESE TEA, the Appeal Panel dismissed the appeal but under the provisions of MRA Rule 168(1)(d), substituted a lesser charge to MRA Rule 44(10) for failing to ride to the satisfaction of the Stewards and substituted the penalty to a suspension from riding in races for a period of eight (8) months and a fine of RM25,000/-.   Jockey M Ganeesh’s suspension was confirmed to commence from 11 October 2021 and to expire on 10 June 2022, both dates inclusive.  The deposit was ordered to be refunded.

Further, he was marginally impeded behind SMART INVESTMENT near the 200M.

UNDER OATH

(R Rueven)

Bumped and became unbalanced near the 500M.

Jockey J Low (HANDSOME BOY) was questioned as to why the gelding was not ridden in a forward position. He advised that he had requested for the gelding to be loaded last, however, this request was not acceded to but the horse’s tail was held by the barrier attendant. After jumping only fairly, he had been tightened for room and thereafter had been unable to obtain the forward position that he had wished for. HANDSOME BOY had commenced to race fiercely and had dipped significantly on straightening and again just prior to the winning post, Trainer HY Cheng was advised to report any findings to the Stewards. HANDSOME BOY was subject to a further veterinary examination before being permitted to race again.

When questioned regarding the performance of DOCTOR GINGER, Jockey HS Gill stated that the gelding was fractious in the stalls and after fly-jumping, was crowded and he had been unable to take up customary leading position, and the gelding had laid outwards considerably, racing wide from the 1000M until straightening. Although he had ridden the horse forward in the straight, it had failed to respond and he considered that the gelding was only suited when able to lead.

Trainer MP Thwaites’ Assistant Trainer advised that MR ALFONSO had failed to perform in three (3) recent outstation races, however, that the gelding had won when being ridden prominently and that it had raced in a trialled in a prominent position on the 15th of February 2022. He considered that MR ALFONSO did not relish travelling and was better suited by racing in KL but he had been restricted by suitability of races and distances, thus taking the horse outstation. The Stewards advised Trainer MP Thwaites’ Assistant Trainer that MR ALFONSO is expected to be ridden in a consistent manner in lead/handy and that consideration be given to restricting its starts to local racing.

Jockey CK Khaw (LEO) stated that the gelding had commenced to tire quickly and he had ridden it out in an effort to get it to respond, however, it had lost considerable ground in a short space. The Stewards were concerned that Jockey CK Khaw’s whip usage was abstract and not consistent with his normal fashion. He explained this being that he had used the whip only on a few occasions and had changed it to his left hand but it had become entangled with his reins. Whilst accepting his explanation, the Stewards were conscious of the fact that LEO had been beaten 19 lengths and had lost considerable ground over the final 200M. The Stewards instructed that LEO be subject to a veterinary examination before being permitted to race again.

NEVERTHELESS

(MM Firdaus)

Vet exam: Laceration off hind tendon.

The Steward concluded an inquiry into the running and handling of BLACK THORN (J Shankar). Evidence was taken from Jockey J Shankar and Trainer SY Lim, the rider and trainer of BLACK THORN respectively. 

After considering the evidence and also reviewing the performance of BLACK THORN, the Stewards found Jockey J Shankar 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: 

  1. He failed to avail himself of a significantly ample run on the inside of NEVERTHELESS near the 500M;

  2. That his left hand whip use is in the opinion of the Stewards, was feigned and that he did not ride BLACK THORN with any vigour with your right hand;

  3. When shifting out for a run near the 75M, he straightened BLACK THORN to maintain his position behind AHTIMS KLIS. 

The Stewards took into consideration Jockey J Shankar’s riding record, mitigating factors and his submissions on penalty. He was suspended from riding in races for a period of four (4) months with effect from 14 March 2022 and to expire on 13 July 2022, both dates inclusive, to be served cumulatively with any other current penalty. He was also fined RM20,000/- and advised of his Right of Appeal.

When questioned, Jockey CK Khaw (COPACABANA) stated that he had intended that it would be ridden in a forward position, however, had been unable to secure a reasonable passage and was trapped 3-wide, and was unable to improve inwards due to the presence of horses behind him.

The particulars of the charge being that the Stewards considered that the use of his whip was in a feigning manner and as such, did not ensure that LITTLE PONY was fully tested. 

The Stewards took into consideration App R Nuqman’s riding record, mitigating factors and his submissions on penalty.

Following the running of this race, the Panel of Stewards inspected a section of the track at the turn into the straight and it was ascertained that there was significant surface water and as such it was deemed unsafe to continue racing. Therefore the remainder of the race meeting was abandoned at 4:27pm.

GENERAL REPORT(S) – SLTC

RACE 10 (R211) CLASS 4 (B) – 1500M (LONG COURSE), SUNDAY, 13 FEBRUARY 2022, SELANGOR TURF CLUB FEBRUARY MEETING 2022 

Following the review of the race meeting conducted on Sunday, 13 February 2022, the Stewards, on 16 February 2022, questioned Trainer KF Coetzee and Jockey R Rueven as to the manner in which RULE THE WORLD was ridden in a rearward position. 

Trainer KF Coetzee advised that he had not attended the race meeting but had advised Stewards and instructed that RULE THE WORLD be ridden to settle 4th or 5th.. Jockey R Rueven advised that it had been his intention to ride the gelding in this position but it had been unable to follow closer than second last as the pace was “too hard”. He had pushed RULE THE WORLD from the outset and slapped it on the shoulder several times near the 1000M. Further, that due to the heavy rain and the kickback, he was unsure as to his exact position within the race field. He believed that RULE THE WORLD had responded well to his normal style of riding in the straight although again he had been timorous due to the diminished visibility, especially when crossed by READY TO SMILE (App WW Cheah) when that mare shifted out at the 300M. 

Trainer KF Coetzee advised that RULE THE WORLD had under performed on an effected track in the past, but stated that he was pleasantly surprised the gelding had run on so well in the straight and considered that RULE THE WORLD may be better ridden in a manner where it is held up in its races. 

The Stewards noted the explanations and reminded Trainer KF Coetzee of his obligation to advise the Stewards should he change the instruction as to the manner in which any of his horses are to be ridden.

No prohibited substances were detected except for sample coded “J-4257” which revealed the presence of “mitragynine”. After decoding the sample number, it was established that this sample was reported to have been taken from App S Uzair. 

On 19 February 2022, App S Uzair’s Employing Trainer, Mr Lawson Moy was advised of the contents of this report and that App S Uzair was suspended from riding in trackwork and races pending an inquiry in terms of MRA Rule 136(3)(b). He was also advised of the contents of MRA Rule 137 and MRA Regulation 46 relating to the Referee Sample. An inquiry into this matter will be held on a date to be fixed.

The Stewards conducted an inquiry on Thursday, 24 February 2022 into the Analyst’s Report that Sample Coded “J-4257” which was taken on 13 February 2022 at the Selangor Turf Club February Meeting 2022, was found to contain mitragynine. Evidence was taken from App S Uzair, from whom the sample was taken, in the presence of his Employing Trainer, L Moy. 

App S Uzair pleaded guilty to a charge under MRA Rule 136(3)(b) with having supplied a sample at the Selangor Turf Club on 13 February 2022 which upon analysis, was found to contain the prohibited substance, mitragynine. 

In considering a penalty, the Stewards took into account; personal aspects as enunciated by App S Uzair, that he had been stood down from races, trials and trackwork since 19 February 2022, as such App S Uzair was suspended from riding in races for a period of three (3) months, backdated from 19 February 2022 and to expire on 18 May 2022, both dates inclusive. He was advised of his Right of Appeal


AMENDMENT

RACE 4 (R176) CLASS 4 (A) – 1100M (SHORT COURSE), SUNDAY, 6 FEBRUARY 2022, SELANGOR TURF CLUB FEBRUARY MEETING 2022 

The Stewards, on 10 February 2022 (Thursday), inquired into Jockey J De Souza’ riding of D’GREAT EFFORT in the above race.

After considering evidence from Jockey J De Souza and Trainer S Siva, the rider and trainer of D’GREAT EFFORT respectively and reviewing the film, the Stewards found Jockey J De Souza 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 the manner in which he rode D’GREAT EFFORT out in the straight was considered insufficiently vigourous and was in contrast to the level of vigour that he usually demonstrated.

The Stewards took into consideration Jockey J De Souza’s riding record, mitigating factors and his submissions on penalty. He was suspended from riding in races for a period of one (1) month with effect from 10 February 2022 and to expire on 9 March 2022, both dates inclusive, to be served concurrently with any other penalty. He was advised of his Right of Appeal.

(App M Ekdihar)

Eased off the heels at the finish.

*When questioned as to the reason being so far back, Jockey J Shankar stated that D’GREAT VULTURE had been leaning to the right on jumping and both he and the gelding had become unbalanced, it was his intention to be running handy-to-midfield position, however, after this incident, he had been rearward. He also advised that the gelding was inclined to lay inwards when ridden forward on straightening. A subsequent veterinary examination revealed that it was lame off fore and as such will be required to pass a 1000M/vet test before being declared to race again.

*Jockey J Daniel, when questioned, stated that HAVANA, being a fractious horse, was loaded early and due to the protracted delay, had to stand in the stall for a considerable part and had effectively switched off. He was then in a position that he had to ride the gelding from the rear rather than its preferred midfield position.

He further advised that although CAPONE had led and won at its two (2) previous starts, on both occasions, he had instructed that the gelding be ridden handy. Also, that both of those races were Class 5 and in his opinion, significantly inferior to this race. Whilst accepting these explanations, the Stewards reminded Trainer HY Cheng that he is obliged by the Rules to advise of any change to tactical instructions.

Trainer AB Abdullah stated that ISFAHAN was best suited over long distances and as such he believed the gelding was best ridden from behind. He further was of the opinion that ISFAHAN’s performance had been severely curtailed by the two (2) checks it had received.

6

OVERSEER

(S Rosmizan)

Trainer questioned regarding apparent improvement.

The connections of BERLINETTA were questioned regarding the poor performance of the gelding. The rider advised that the gelding had no pace and was unsuited by the nature of the track. Further, he believed that BERLINETTA second-up performances had been poor in the past and showed no interest in the race although he had encouraged the gelding significantly. The Trainer’s representative stated that he could offer no reasoning but suggested that the Course B and the State of Track may have contributed to BERLINETTA’s poor performance today. A post-race veterinary examination of BERLINETTA revealed no significant finding. BERLINETTA will be required to pass a 1000M/vet test before being declared to race again for having poor performance. The gelding was impounded for analytical and veterinary examination.

When questioned regarding the apparent improved performance of OVERSEER, Trainer S Hamilton stated that the mare had not relished the State of Track at its previous run and its only win had been a the Selangor’s track. She was of the opinion that the mare had a liking for the track.
