On inquiry, Jockey S Ruzaini, the rider of YULONG HONOR, pleaded guilty to a charge of careless riding under MRA Rule 44(9)(a)(ii) in that shortly after the start, he shifted in, tightening GHOST BAY (HS Gill) onto GOLD MOSA (AK Lim) which in turn crowded ALL MY EYE (App CK Khaw) and SMIDDY BYRNE (Y Aify) which shifted in causing GOD OF WAR (J Low) to be checked severely.

He was suspended from riding in races for a period of two (2) Malaysian race days with effect from 7 September 2020 and to expire on 13 September 2020, both dates inclusive.

RACE 11 (R670) CLASS 5 (A) – 1400M (LONG COURSE)

When the start was effected, READY TO SEVENLUCK (KC Wong) jumped very awkwardly and refused to race, veering outwards.

Near the 600M, ANDRE (App L De Souza) was tightened on his inside and he steadied READY TO SEVENLUCK for fear he was shifting in. The gelding had then thrown his head.

When questioned, App M Akmazani (INTROIT) advised that INTROIT had shown no early pace and he had been rearward where the gelding was travelling comfortably. Although making good ground in the straight, he had ridden it hands and heels and sparingly with the whip.

MARINE TREASURE was impeded in the straight and had to be taken wide to obtain a clear passage. Jockey R Rueven, the rider of AFFLECK, pleaded guilty to a charge of careless riding under MRA Rule 44(9)(a)(ii) in that he shifted in shortly after the start, carrying DINTINCTIVE DARCI (App L De Souza) inwards which caused MARINE TREASURE (App M Akmazani) and D’GREAT CONQUEROR (AK Lim) to be tightened and lose ground.

In assessing the penalty, the Stewards took into consideration Jockey R Rueven’s guilty plea, mitigating factors, previous riding record and his submissions on penalty. Acting on the provisions of MRA Rule 48(5), the Stewards deferred the commencement of his suspension. He was suspended from riding in races for a period of two (2) Malaysian race days with effect from 10 August 2020 and to expire on 16 August 2020, both dates inclusive. He was advised of his Right of Appeal (4pm).

GENERAL REPORT(S) – SLTC

RACE 7 (R479) CLASS 4 (A) – 1600M (LONG COURSE), SATURDAY, 1 AUGUST 2020, SELANGOR TURF CLUB AUGUST SPECIAL MEETING 2020

The Stewards questioned App A Zaimuddin (SHELLOMADA), in the presence of his Employing Trainer, Trainer BT Lim who is also the Trainer of SHELLOMADA, regarding his whip use on that gelding. Trainer BT Lim put forward that App A Zaimuddin had not ridden for a considerable period and as he had been subject to some previous training, he attempted to change his whip riding style during this period. As such, he was of the opinion that App A Zaimuddin, although trying to ride to his best, had not yet perfected the different style.

Whilst the Stewards accepted this in part, they referred App A Zaimuddin for specific whip related training and advised that he must ride every horse in a manner so as to leave no doubt as to his proper purpose.

When questioned regarding the performance of GYARADOS (C Goon), Jockey C Goon advised that the mare had not raced since November last year and had shown no early pace. He suggested that GYARADOS was unsuited by the up-in-class but also that he was disappointed in the mare’s performance.

GENERAL REPORT(S) – SLTC

RACE 6 (R431), SUNDAY, 19 JULY 2020, SLTC JULY SPECIAL MEETING 2020

Jockey J De Souza and Trainer SB Tan, the rider and trainer of PACIFIC MISSION respectively, were each fined RM250/- under the provisions of MRA Rule 152(5) for a breach of the Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) related to the mounting procedure in Race 6 today.

SUNDAY, 19 JULY 2020, SLTC TRACKWORK

An inquiry will be held into the reason for LISTEN (J412) (Trainer MW Teh) being walked on the main grass this morning and the bona fides of its rider.

INQUIRY INTO THE CIRCUMSTANCES SURROUNDING AN ALTERCATION BETWEEN TRAINER S EDWARDS AND TRAINER MW TEH ON 19 FEBRUARY 2020 AT SELANGOR TURF CLUB (SLTC)

The Stewards concluded an inquiry into an altercation at trackwork on 19^th February 2020.

Evidence was taken from Trainers S Edwards and MW Teh. The Stewards also considered the video recordings of certain aspects of an exchange between the parties.

After considering the issue:

Trainer S Edwards was warned under the provisions of MRA Rule 152(5)(a) for misconduct in the manner he addressed Trainer MW Teh.
Trainer MW Teh was warned under the provisions of MRA Rule 152(5)(a) for misconduct in the manner in which he addressed Trainer S Edwards.
Both Trainers were reminded that common SLTC facilities were available to all trainers who were obliged to share respectfully.

INQUIRY INTO A REPORT RELATING TO TRAINER MW TEH’S MANNER TOWARDS A SYCE ON 4 MARCH 2020 AT THE SELANGOR TURF CLUB (SLTC)

Following a first-hand report from an attending Steward, Trainer MW Teh was questioned initially regarding the manner in which he addressed and referred to a Syce employed by another trainer on 4 March 2020.

After considering the evidence, the Stewards were satisfied that Trainer MW Teh had acted in an inappropriate verbal manner towards the Syce. Mr Teh was subsequently reprimanded under the provisions of MRA Rule 152(5)(a) for misconduct and advised that a repetition would lead to action being taken.

INQUIRY INTO THE CIRCUMSTANCES SURROUNDING THE PRE-RACE EXAMINATION OF TRINITY GRACE IN RACE 5 (R298) ON SATURDAY, 29 FEBRUARY 2020 AT THE SELANGOR TURF CLUB (SPECIAL MEETING).

The Stewards concluded the inquiry into the circumstances surrounding the pre-race veterinary examination of TRINITY GRACE in the above race.

In consultation with Dr Shri Kanth, Senior Veterinary Surgeon of SLTC, the Stewards identified from video footage that TRINITY GRACE was fractious after being placed in the stalls and exited rearward on two (2) occasions. On both occasions, TRINITY GRACE was examined by the Veterinarian at the start but from a considerable distance.

The Stewards considered that a close-up examination of the gelding may have revealed the minor injury.

As a result of the inquiry, Dr Shri undertook to formulate a Standard Operating Practice for Veterinarians attending at the start of races.

RACING STEWARDS’ REPORT – TUESDAY, 7 JULY 2020
