Acting on veterinary advice that LIM’S TORPEDO had sustained a laceration to the left commissure of the mouth, the gelding was withdrawn by order of the Stewards at 1:30pm.  The gelding will be required to undergo a veterinary examination before being entered to race again.

BIG G (App M Ekdihar) which was difficult to be loaded, will be required to pass 1 Starting Stall test before being declared to race again.

SHA NA NA (App N Varmah) was slow into stride and trailed the field in the early stages.

BIG G returned having cast its near fore plate.

The Stewards questioned App Clyde Leck and Trainer C Leck as to the reason why STAY SOUND was ridden in a rearward position. Trainer C Leck advised that he had instructed for the gelding to be ridden midfield, however, he believed that STAY SOUND was caught flat-footed when other horses passed him and he ended up with a wall of horses in front. He was of the opinion that although STAY SOUND was impeded slightly on straightening, this had denied him running a place as the horse had run on well. App Clyde Leck agreed that the field had crossed quickly in front of him and he was further back than desired, although he had worked to obtain a good position on straightening, he had been impeded shortly after.

This race was run in rain.

MURDOCH (App Clyde Leck) was slow into stride.

LADY BLA BLA (App N Varmah) and CAPONE (HS Gill) raced wide in the middle stages.

When blocked for a clear run on straightening, LEADING CELLIST (App A Suriya) shifted out, bumping the hind-quarters of TWENTY-SIXTWELVE (J Daniel). LEADING CELLIST was then blocked and shifted in. This caused ATLANTIC ARROW (S Ruzaini) to be checked near the 250M.  

On inquiry, App A Suriya, the rider of LEADING CELLIST, in the presence of his Employing Trainer, C Leck, pleaded guilty to a charge of careless riding under MRA Rule 44(9)(a)(ii) in that he shifted in at this stage.

In assessing the penalty, the Stewards took into consideration App A Suriya’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) race days with effect from 6 December 2021 and to expire on 18 December 2021, both dates inclusive. He was advised of his Right of Appeal.

GRATUS (App S Uzair) had to be taken wide on straightening to secure a clear passage.

 Shortly after the start, I’M COMING (App AB Riduan) veered inwards, crowding BOOM ALMIGHTY (App S Sia) which in turn caused KUBERA’S CHIEF (App R Nuqman) to throw its head when being steadied. App AB Riduan was reprimanded for shifting in at this stage.

Approaching the 950M, KUBERA’S CHIEF raced fiercely and hung outwards onto the heels of FRIDAY (C Goon).

Near the 650M, FRIDAY raced erratically and collapsed. A post-race veterinary examination of FRIDAY revealed that the gelding bled and will be barred from racing for a period of three (3) months under MRA Rule 92(3) and thereafter will be required to pass a bleeder’s test before being declared to race again.

Jockey J Low (JOCKEY KING) was fined RM500/- for negligence under MRA Rule 152(5)(a) for weighing out without his stirrup irons. Trainer HY Cheng’s representative was warned that he must ensure all saddles presented are fully mounted.  

LUCKY JUSTICE (J Daniel) veered outwards on jumping, bumping JOCKEY KING (J Low), causing it to lose ground.

READY TO SMILE (App WW Cheah) threw its head at the start. The Stewards inquired into App WW Cheah’s riding of READY TO SMILE. Trainer R Lines advised that he instructed that READY TO SMILE be ridden in a midfield position although the mare had raced on the pace but in a substantially weaker field at its previous start.

App WW Cheah stated that the mare had thrown its head badly when fly-jumping at the start and although attaining a midfield position, had continued to throw its head until the 800M. He had kept his hands down in an effort to have the mare settled in what he believed was a reasonable midfield position.

When questioned regarding his riding style in the straight, he stated that he had taken permission from his Employing Trainer, Mr R Lines to try a different style as he had been practicing an English style of riding. Mr R Lines agreed with this and advised that he was of the opinion that at no stage was App WW Cheah restraining READY TO SMILE and that whilst the style in this race was not consistent with his other riding, that he believed he had ridden the mare so as to be fully tested. A subsequent veterinary examination of READY TO SMILE at the stables ascertained that the mare had a sharp process to the pre-molar and first molar on the lower right hand side.

After a protracted inquiry, the Stewards gave App WW Cheah the benefit of the doubt but issued a warning that he must ensure that he rides in a manner that demonstrates that every mount is fully tested irrespective of the circumstances.

Trainer R Lines was advised that he must secure a veterinary certificate READY TO SMILE for of suitability before being declared to race again.

GUNFORHIRE (Y Aify) was ridden wide throughout.

FLASH ONE (J De Souza) drifted out over the concluding 75M and brushed with TRAFALGAR (S Ruzaini) near the 50M.

LUCKY JUSTICE returned having cast its off fore plate.

INVICTUS WARRIOR (HS Gill) was slow into stride and raced wide in the middle stages.

OISIN EXPRESS (L De Souza) veered inwards on jumping, bumping LION KING (J Low) in onto FLAMING PHOENIX which lost considerable ground.

AIR BOSS (S Ruzaini) raced wide throughout.

App A Suriya (WHITE RABBIT) dropped his near side rein near the 300M. This was referred to the Head of Apprentice School for remedial action.

LION KING laid inwards onto INVICTUS WARRIOR near the 250M.

The Stewards questioned Jockey MM Firdaus (FLAMING PHOENIX) related to his riding of FLAMING PHOENIX. It was confirmed that FLAMING PHOENIX had been bumped heavily at the start. Although Jockey MM Firdaus had wished to ride the filly midfield, it had been in a rearward position and reluctant to pick up and in the straight, he had raced greenly. When making significant ground in the straight, he had to restrain FLAMING PHOENIX when running onto the heels of the tiring INVICTUS WARRIOR. Whilst accepting his reasoning, the Stewards advised Jockey MM Firdaus that he is expected show significant initiative and vigour in every race. Considering that FLAMING PHOENIX did not show any pace in the race, the gelding will be required to pass a 1000M/vet test before being declared to race again.

A post-race veterinary examination of KALA GHODA (J Shankar) revealed that it returned exhibiting signs of respiratory distress and as such will be required to pass a 1000M/vet test before being declared to race again.

The Stewards questioned Jockey Y Aify regarding his riding of LONELY BOY in the straight. He advised that he had been impeded when attempting a run in the straight and explained his riding action in that he was attempting to pick-up the gelding as it was not responding as he wished. The Stewards reprimanded Jockey Y Aify that he is expected to ride in a manner so as to fully test his mounts.

ME NO MARSH MELLOW (R Rueven) bounded in the air at the start, losing ground.

Shortly after the start, DOCTOR GINGER was tightened and shifted in, causing BAADSHAH (J Shankar) to be squeezed and lose ground.

DOCTOR GINGER was ridden wide throughout.

When questioned regarding the riding of KONG FU PANDA (J Low), Jockey J Low advised that he had been instructed to sit the gelding 4th , 5th and he tried to relax KONG FU PANDA, however, he raced in 3rd position in a keen manner and in the straight, had been one-paced.

Trainer KC Tiang advised that he had instructed that the gelding be ridden in 4th , 5th as in its previous start, it had weakened when ridden forward. He had instructed KONG FU PANDA to be ridden in a more relaxed fashion given the long course but this has not eventuated as the gelding had raced fiercely. Trainer KC Tiang advised he would instruct for KONG FU PANDA to be ridden in a forward position where it would be comfortable.

SPADE OF ACE (AK Lim) and STAR TALENT (L De Souza) bumped heavily on jumping.

The saddle on LEO (CK Khaw) slipped forward near the 700M. Jockey CK Khaw explained that LEO had been pulling hard and he had been unable to secure cover thus the saddle had slipped forward, placing him in an awkward position, therefore he had been unable to ride LEO out when it was off the bit until the saddle eventually righted itself.

Near the 625M, BEST BAY (J Daniel) had to steady when CERDAN (WK Lee) rolled in.

On straightening, SPADE OF ACE shifted out quickly, bumping FREY (SU Lim) which became unbalanced. BELLA VELOCE (S Ruzaini) which was following, had to ease.

Near the 700M, KALA GHODA (J Shankar) had to be restrained outwards to avoid the heels of the quickly and tiring HAPPY LUCKY STAR.

THUNDERGOD (App AB Riduan) raced wide in the early stages.

The Stewards questioned App WW Cheah with regards to his riding of HAPPY LUCKY STAR after missing the start. He advised that he had been instructed to ride in a forward position and had pushed HAPPY LUCKY STAR vigourously after it had missed the start by a considerable margin, thereby leading by the 1000M. HAPPY LUCKY STAR had tired badly from the 700M. The Stewards advised App WW Cheah that they considered he had erred badly as it had affected significantly which resulted in HAPPY LUCKY STAR having missed the start and was advised that he must show initiative in future to improve and to give his horse chances irrespective of what might happen in the race.

The Stewards inquired into Jockey S Ruzaini’s riding of LITTLE MASTER. He advised that he had been instructed to ride LITTLE MASTER in a mid-to-back position as it was considered to be too short for the gelding. He had achieved this positioning and had ridden LITTLE MASTER vigourously in the straight, however, believed the gelding was awkwardly with its head action and was inclined to hang out over the concluding stages. When questioned regarding his whip action, he explained that he had alternated backhand and a forehand usage and maintained that each “hit” was indeed making contact.

Whilst accepting the manner in which LITTLE MASTER was ridden in the early stages given its prior record, the Stewards advised Jockey S Ruzaini that he must put every horse in a position and ride it in a manner so as to fully test its potential.

GASSUR (Y Aify) and MIEJ (AK Lim) were slow to begin.

Passing the 150M, SPEEDY DEMON (App N Varmah) shifted in and caused MAGNUM FORCE (App WW Cheah) to be restrained. On inquiry, App N Varmah, the rider of SPEEDY DEMON, in the presence of his Employing Trainer, Charles Leck pleaded guilty to a charge of careless riding under MRA Rule 44(9)(a)(ii) in that he shifted in at this stage.

In assessing the penalty, the Stewards took into consideration App N Varmah’s guilty plea, mitigating factors, previous riding record and his submissions on penalty.

RACE 5 (R888)         CLASS 5 (A) – 1800M (LONG COURSE)

BERLINETTA (S Ruzaini) veered outwards at the start, inconveniencing RIDE A WHITE HORSE (App S Uzair).

JARL (App R Nuqman) raced wide in the middle stages.

The Stewards questioned Jockey S Ruzaini as to the reason he had not led on BERLINETTA. Trainer KP Hoy stated that it was the gelding’s first time over the 1800M in Malaysia. Although BERLINETTA led at its previous start, he had instructed, to give BERLINETTA an opportunity to run out the 1800M, that it be ridden off the pace.

Jockey S Ruzaini advised that the raced developed quickly with early speed from the 2 leaders but he had been unable to secure cover as several runners had pushed up on his inside. He had steadily made ground and was close to the leading pair on straightening, he had put BERLINETTA under pressure in the straight but the gelding had failed to respond and it lost considerable ground. He was of the opinion that BERLINETTA was not suited to distances greater than 1600M. In considering this, the Stewards warned Jockey S Ruzaini that he must ride every horse in a positive manner. Trainer KP Hoy was instructed that given his statement, that he should restrict BERLINETTA’s starts to shorter distance races.

On jumping, ASIAN JET (J Daniel) veered inwards and bumped MOOGATE GOLD (App WW Cheah) heavily which was tightened by SPARKLE LOT (MM Firdaus) which shifted out. Jockey J Daniel was warned the he must afford runners on his inside sufficient room.

From its wide barrier, TRINITY FLYING (HS Gill) raced wide in the early stages.

The saddle on MOONGATE GOLD slipped backwards mid-race.

Trainer HY Cheng was questioned as to the reason that SHOW ROYALE (App AB Riduan) had led as opposed to its previous start. He stated that the gelding was stepping up to 1300M from the 1100M when he had instructed that the horse to be ridden where it was comfortable on the pace. However, SHOW ROYALE had jumped only moderately and able only to race in midfield. He instructed the same today and App AB Riduan was able to easily lead from its inside barrier. Trainer HY Cheng was advised that he is expected to ensure that SHOW ROYALE would be ridden in consistent fashion in future.

A post-race veterinary examination of NEWTON (S Zulfikri) revealed that the gelding bled and will be barred from racing for a period of three (3) months under MRA Rule 92(3) and thereafter will be required to pass a bleeder’s test before being declared to race again.

RACE 2 (R789)         CLASS 5 (A) – 1300M (LONG COURSE)

COMMODORE LINCOLN (Y Aify) was slow into stride.

NORTHERN KNIGHT (SU Lim) shifted out sharply and tightened TWENTYSIXTWELVE (J Daniel) which caused FIVE HUNDRED (C Goon) to check. FIVE HUNDRED was then ridden in a rearward position.

At a conclusion of an inquiry, Jockey SU Lim, the rider of NORTHERN KNIGHT,  pleaded guilty to a charge of careless riding under MRA Rule 44(9)(a)(ii) in that he shifted out at this stage. In assessing the penalty, the Stewards took into consideration Jockey SU Lim’s guilty plea, mitigating factors, previous riding record and his submissions on penalty.

RACE 3 (R790)         CLASS 5 (A) – 1300M (LONG COURSE)

PEARL DANCER (C Goon) raced wide in the middle stages.

Trainer C Leck was questioned as to the reason STAY SOUND (placed third) had led by a considerable margin as opposed to its rearward performance on 2 October 2021. He stated that he was mystified as to how STAY SOUND had led so easily as he believed the gelding would have displayed a considerable different attitude than its previous starts in order to be able to race prominently. He could only offer a suggestion that STAY SOUND was fresh, given that he had confined the gelding work with swimming since its previous start. Whilst accepting that STAY SOUND had not been ridden vigourously from the start nor mid-race, the Stewards advised Trainer C Leck that it was expected that STAY SOUND to be ridden in a similar fashion, leading or handy, in its future starts.

UNION JAC (App R Nuqman) was slow into stride.

FRIDAY, 15 OCTOBER 2021, SLTC TRACKWORK

Trainer HY Cheng was fined RM250/- for negligence under MRA Rule 152(5)(a) for presenting GOLDEN CRAFTSMAN with an incorrect training saddle cloth number for the above trackwork.


RACE 9 (R764) CLASS 4 (B) – 1200M (SHORT COURSE), SUNDAY, 10 OCTOBER 2021, SELANGOR TURF CLUB OCTOBER MEETING 2021

The Stewards, on 15 October 2021 (Friday), inquired into Jockey S Zulfikri’s riding of AUSSIE EAGLE in the above race. Evidence was taken from Jockey S Zulfikri and Trainer S Siva, the rider and trainer of AUSSIE EAGLE respectively.

After considering the evidence and also reviewing the performance of AUSSIE EAGLE when winning on 26 September 2021, the Stewards found Jockey S Zulfikri 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 had unduly restrained AUSSIE EAGLE at the start although instructed to be in a handy-to-mid position;
  2. He remained behind SUPER BB (AK Lim) from the 450M until into the straight although presented with opportunities to improve his positon;
  3. His whip action and its veracity in the straight were inconsistent in affording AUSSIE EAGLE the best chance to improve.

The Stewards took into consideration Jockey S Zulfikri’s recent riding record, mitigating factors and his submissions on penalty. He was suspended from riding in races for a period of three (3) months, to be deferred, with effect from 18 October 2021 and to expire on 17 January 2022, both dates inclusive. He was also fined the sum of RM20,000/- and advised of his Right of Appeal.


RACE 10 (R765) CLASS 5 (A) – 1100M (SHORT COURSE), SUNDAY, 10 OCTOBER 2021, SELANGOR TURF CLUB OCTOBER MEETING 2021

At the conclusion of an inquiry today (17 October 2021), Jockey S Ruzaini, the rider of D’GREAT SONG, pleaded guilty to a charge of careless riding under MRA Rule 44(9)(a)(ii) in that he shifted in near the 800M causing KUBERA’S CHIEF (App R Nuqman) to check.

In assessing the penalty, the Stewards took into consideration Jockey S Ruzaini’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) Selangor Turf Club race days with effect from 18 October 2021 and to expire on 30 October 2021, both dates inclusive. He was advised of his Right of Appeal.

The Stewards, on 17 October 2021, concluded an inquiry into Jockey S Ruzaini’s ride on LIM’S TORPEDO. Jockey S Ruzaini explained that he had been instructed to ride in rear position consistent with its previous start although the gelding was drawn on the inside.

On jumping, he had been bumped by MERCURIAL TURN (J De Souza). He had then been behind that gelding and was unable to improve until straightening. When attempting a run on straightening, he had been marginally blocked when BAOYE CHAMPION (App AB Riduan) had drifted in and although he had placed LIM’S TORPEDO thereafter under significant pressure with the whip, the gelding had failed to past a horse in the straight. His explanations were noted.

RACE 3 (R758)         CLASS 5 (A) – 1400M (LONG COURSE)

CONDADO (L De Souza) shifted in at the start, crowding FIVE HUNDRED (KC Tham) onto O’REILLY BAY (Y Aify).

FOREVER AND EVER (AK Lim) was ridden across quickly from its outside barrier and caused D’GREAT ACHIEVER (App S Sia) to shift in, which in turn caused FIVE HUNDRED (KC Tham) to bump with ALL WHITE (App Clyde Leck). At the conclusion of an inquiry, Jockey AK Lim, the rider of FOREVER AND EVER, pleaded guilty to a charge of careless riding under MRA Rule 44(9)(a)(ii). In assessing the penalty, the Stewards took into consideration Jockey AK Lim’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 with effect from 11 October 2021 and to expire on 17 October 2021, both dates inclusive. He was advised of his Right of Appeal.

ALL WHITE became unbalanced near the 1100M.

In the early stages, CONDADO which was racing fiercely, was taken wide and then laid in considerably in the straight.

UPTOWN GIRL (J Shankar) which was making ground in the straight, had to be steadied at the 75M when laying in slightly.

A post-race veterinary examination of FOREVER AND EVER revealed that the mare bled and will be barred from racing for a period of three (3) months under MRA Rule 92(3) and thereafter will be required to pass a bleeder’s test before being declared to race again.

The Club Veterinary Surgeon reported that UPTOWN GIRL returned with a cut on the right commissure of the mouth. The mare will be required to undergo a veterinary examination before being declared to race again.

RACE 4 (R759)         CLASS 4 (A) – 1600M (LONG COURSE)

Acting on veterinary advice that COME AND TAKE ALL (R Rueven) was lame off fore, the gelding was withdrawn by order of the Stewards at 2pm. COME AND TAKE ALL will be required to pass a 1000M/vet test before being declared to race again.

STAR INVINCIBLE (App AB Riduan) which had cast its off fore plate at the start, was replated, checked by the Club Veterinary Surgeon and passed fit to race.

GOOD NEWS (KC Wong) veered outwards at the start, bumping CHER (S Ruzaini).

CHER was blocked for a clear run behind GOOD NEWS over the concluding 200M and had to be restrained. GOOD NEWS then shifted out at the same time as EL TORDILLO (SU Lim) shifting in onto ELITE REMARKABLE (HS Gill) which had to be checked at about the 75M.

Jockey HS Gill (ELITE REMARKABLE) dropped his whip at about the 400M. He was warned that a repetition of dropping the whip in future may lead to a penalty being imposed.

Jockey KC Wong (GOOD NEWS) and Jockey L De Souza (TRIPLE ONE STAR) were questioned as to why they had allowed the three early leaders to advance in front of their mounts between the 1200M and the 900M. Jockey KC Wong stated that he had pushed GOOD NEWS from the start but the gelding had showed no early pace and further it was burdened by top weight of 59kgs. Jockey L De Souza stated that he believed that the leaders had gone too quickly and he was content to make progress alongside GOOD NEWS. Whilst accepting these explanations, the Stewards reminded Jockeys KC Wong and L De Souza that they were expected to ride positively at all stages throughout the race so as to maximize their mounts’ chances.

EL TORDILLO returned having cast its off fore plate.

Jockey MM Firdaus was reprimanded for using his whip when his horse had an inclination to lay inwards. Trainer KC Tiang was advised to take remedial measures to straighten KONG FU PANDA.

When questioned regarding the reason as to why VETRI was so far back, Trainer HY Cheng stated that he had instructed for the gelding to be ridden midfield with cover.

RACE 8 (R754)         CLASS 5 (A) – 1100M (SHORT COURSE)

After jumping slowly, WILDFIRE (HK Cheng) was crowded between FLYING SHADOW (SU Lim) and MAJOR GREEN (R Rueven) and had to be restrained.  WILDFIRE then threw its head significantly and was taken wide. Jockey HK Cheng, when questioned, confirmed that he wished to be racing in a prominent position close to the pace but after being crowded, WILDFIRE reacted violently with its head and he had been forced to take the gelding wider on the track.

Following the running of this race, Jockey HK Cheng was examined by the Club Doctor who subsequently stood him down from his riding engagement for the remainder of the race today. Jockey HK Cheng was advised by the Stewards that he will require a specific fitness clearance prior to riding in races again.

At the 1000M, D’GREAT JOURNEY (AK Lim) misstrode and became unbalanced.

The Stewards inquired into the running and handling of MR G (Jockey A Zaimuddin). Evidence was taken from Jockey A Zaimuddin and Trainer S Dunderdale, the rider and trainer of MR G respectively. At the conclusion of the inquiry, Jockey A Zaimuddin, the rider of MR G, 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 were that:

  1. He travelled wide between the 900M and the 600M when there was no need to do so; and
  2. He showed a lack of vigour in his riding in the straight. 

In assessing the penalty, the Stewards took into consideration Jockey A Zaimuddin’s plea of guilty, mitigating factors, previous riding record and his submissions on penalty. He was suspended from riding in races for a period of two (2) months, to be deferred, with effect from 11 October 2021 and to expire on 10 December 2021, both dates inclusive. Acting on the provisions of MRA Rule 48(5), the Stewards deferred the commencement of his suspension. He was advised of his Right of Appeal.

SOUTHERN MAN (C Goon) struck the inside gate on jumping, losing considerable ground and was inclined to lay inwards in the straight.

RESOLUTE (HS Gill) raced wide throughout. When questioned regarding this, Jockey HS Gill advised that RESOLUTE was having its initial start in Malaysia and he was unsure of that gelding’s characteristics. He had been unable to restrain RESOLUTE in an endeavour to take a sit behind SELANGOR EXPRESS (App R Nuqman) running to the first turn. Jockey HS Gill was advised that he should make a positive effort to ensure that his horses are not ridden wide when there are alternatives available.

GIFTED (KC Tham) brushed the running rail near the 75M, becoming unbalanced.

RACE 8 (R733)         SUPREME A – 1100M (SHORT COURSE)

In the early stages, XENA (J Low) raced fiercely.

Jockey S Ruzaini (VOLCANIC GENERAL) was fined the sum of RM500/- under MRA Rule 44(12) for making a celebratory gesture prior to the winning post.

A post-race veterinary examination of SHOWBOY (Y Aify) revealed that it returned with laryngeal hemiplegia (grade 3) and as such will be required to pass a 1000M/vet test before being declared to race again.

The Stewards inquired into the manner in which App AB Riduan rode CONSTANT JUSTICE. Trainer HY Cheng stated that he had instructed CONSTANT JUSTICE be ridden forward but not lead, however, App AB Riduan was unable to restrain CONSTANT JUSTICE. The Stewards questioned App AB Riduan as to why he had looked on his inside on 3 occasions at the 800M, 600M and the 475M when travelling on the outside of the leader, VOLCANIC GENERAL (S Ruzaini). He stated that he was concerned as he heard some “calling” from behind and that he did not want to interfere with any other runner. When questioned as to the reason he had shifted out on straightening, he stated that he had been instructed to take CONSTANT JUSTICE to the middle of the track in the straight as it resented any horses around it and any kickback. Trainer HY Cheng confirmed these instructions and reasoning.

The Stewards heard evidence from Jockey S Ruzaini (VOLCANIC GENERAL) and Jockey J Low (XENA). Jockey J Low advised that it was him that called at the 475M but only to encourage XENA. He agreed that it was fortuitous that CONSTANT JUSTICE had shifted out at this stage, as it had afforded XENA an uninterrupted passage.

In considering this matter in totality, the Stewards warned App AB Riduan that he must ride each race individually and with a view in maximizing his horse’s chances, further he ought not to be concerned in other runners’ preferred passage. Further, Trainer HY Cheng was advised that when he had multiple runners, he must instruct that each horse is ridden independently so as to maximize its chances.

SORBETA (J De Souza) and BURKAAN (Y Aify) were slow into stride.

HIGH COUNCIL (App N Varmah) raced wide in the middle stages.

LIM’S PERSHING (App AB Riduan) raced wide throughout, taking the turn into the straight wide.

BURKAAN was blocked for a run near the 250M and had to be steadied when GOD HELPS ME (S Ruzaini) drifted out passing the 150M. Jockey S Ruzaini was advised that he must keep his mounts straight.

When questioned, Jockey J De Souza (SORBETA) advised that when crossed at the start by HANDSOME BENZ (HS Gill), he had eased SORBETA but the gelding had thrown its head and was reluctant to stride out resulting in him being at the tail of the field. He also advised that in his opinion, the 1100M was too short for SORBETA. Jockey HS Gill (HANDSOME BENZ) was warned that he must afford horses on his inside sufficient room at the start.

A post-race veterinary examination of LINCOLN MOONLIGHT (J Low) revealed that it was lame near fore and as such will be required to pass a 1000M/vet test before being declared to race again.
