 SILVER VICTOR (App P Haris) was examined by the Club Veterinary Surgeon behind the barriers and was passed fit to race.

BLOSSOMS SEQUEL (App L De Souza) was slowly into stride.

PERFECT PEARL (SS Vanan) was trapped wide and had to race wide in order to obtain a forward position

At the 400M, TIGER BAY (J De Souza) shifted out due to becoming unbalanced causing ONE FOR ALL (App M Hanif) to be taken out. At the 300M, TIGER BAY again shifted marginally out and ONE FOR ALL shied away from the whip of Jockey J De Souza, the rider of TIGER BAY. This in turn caused PERFECT PEARL to be taken to the right, while at the same time, receiving pressure from FLYING NEKO (S Anandan) which laid inwards abruptly. As a result of this, PERFECT PEARL clipped the heels of FLYING NEKO, became unbalanced and lost momentum. AMAZING (F Yap) was forced to take evasive action as a result of this incident.  After reviewing the films of the incident, it was established that no particular rider was to be blamed for this incident and as such the Stewards deemed it as a racing incident.

 App P Haris, the rider of SILVER VICTOR, was fined RM1000/- under MRA Rule 121(7) for weighing in 1.1kgs over his declared weight. When questioned, App P Haris, in the presence of his Master, Trainer BT Lim, admitted that he had taken a drink of water after weighing out.

 RACE 5 (R1227)       CLASS 4 – 1200M (SHORT COURSE A)

NOVA CANO (HS Gill) broke through the gates, bolted and galloped a considerable distance. The gelding was withdrawn by order of the Stewards at 2:25pm and will be required to pass a 1000M/vet (from the starting stall) test before being declared to race again.

GOLDEN CHOICE (App WK Lee) raced wide until the straight where it laid in under pressure.

LOVE GOES AROUND (C Goon) was slow into stride and was forced to switch very wide to obtain clear running in the straight.

GOOD DEAL (App S Zulfikri) was slow to begin and raced well behind the field until making late ground in the straight. After taking evidence from App S Zulfikri and Trainer SB Tan, the rider and Trainer of GOOD DEAL respectively, the Stewards adjourned the inquiry to a date to be fixed.

In the first 100M, there was a brush between AUSSIE EAGLE (G Pereira) and SHARON’S STAR (App M Hanif) which caused SHARON’S STAR to race greenly and throw its head in the air.

At the conclusion of an inquiry, Jockey Y Aify, the rider of THE JEUNEYMAN, was found guilty of a charge of careless riding under MRA Rule 44(9)(a)(ii) in that he allowed his horse to shift inwards at about the 1000M, leaving insufficient space for AUSSIE EAGLE (G Pereira) and CHIPS (App KC Wong) to his inside.

In assessing the penalty, the Stewards took into consideration Jockey Y Aify’s 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 Jockey Y Aify’s suspension. He was suspended from riding in races for a period of two (2) Malaysian race days with effect from 9 October 2017 and to expire on 15 October 2017, both dates inclusive. He was advised of his Right of Appeal (3:30pm).

At the conclusion of an inquiry, App AK Lim, the rider of POKEMON BABY, in the presence of his Master, Trainer WC Lim, pleaded guilty to a charge of careless riding under MRA Rule 44(9)(a)(ii) in that at about the 400M mark, he allowed his horse to shift inwards away from the right hand whip causing interference to CROWN PRINCE.

In assessing the penalty, the Stewards took into consideration App 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 2 October 2017 and to expire on 8 October 2017, both dates inclusive. He was advised of his Right of Appeal (4:35pm).

GENERAL REPORT(S) – SLTC

RACE 7 (R1171) CLASS 4 – 1200M (SHORT COURSE B), SUNDAY, 17 SEPTEMBER 2017, SELANGOR TURF CLUB SEPTEMBER MEETING 2017

 The Stewards, on 27 September 2017 at the Selangor Turf Club, concluded an inquiry into an incident where App S Zulfikri had his feet out of the irons and never regained them at any stage during the above race. Further evidence was taken from App S Zulfikri, the rider of BANKERS CALL, in the presence of his Acting Master, B Trainer Siva Kumar s/o Subramaniam, B Trainer Teh Ming Wan, the representative of Trainer SB Tan, the Trainer of BANKERS CALL, App W Faizal, the rider of COLIN THE FIRTH, Jockey SS Vanan, the rider of KEEPITCONFIDENTIAL, Dr Silamban Subbarao (Chief Starter), Dr Dasarathurao Seeta Ramaiah (Assistant Starter) and Dr Shri Kanth (Senior Veterinary Surgeon).

After considering the evidence tendered and reviewing the various angles of the films including the barrier cameras, the Stewards decided to take no further action but warned App S Zulfikri that in future he must communicate clearly to the Starter if he is not ready. However, having heard conflicting accounts from the various witnesses, the Stewards gave App S Zulfikri the benefit of the doubt on this occasion. The Stewards further accepted App S Zulfikri’s explanation that having left the barrier without his feet in the irons, he tried to make the best of a bad situation in the race itself.

RACE 3 (R1167) CLASS 4 – 1400M (LONG COURSE B), SUNDAY, 17 SEPTEMBER 2017, SELANGOR TURF CLUB SEPTEMBER MEETING 2017

 The Stewards, on 27 September 2017 at the Selangor Turf Club, concluded an inquiry into the running and handling of PERFECT PEARL in the above race. Evidence was taken from Jockey SS Vanan and Trainer L Moy, the rider and Trainer of PERFECT PEARL respectively.

 Jockey SS Vanan 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:

 He urged PERFECT PEARL into a six length lead in the first 200M, contrary to the Trainer’s instructions.

  1. He took insufficient steps to check how far back his rivals were throughout the first half of the race.
  2. In the first half of the race, he allowed PERFECT PEARL to race at an overly fast pace which it had no hope of maintaining, resulting in the gelding tiring badly.
  3. He made no attempt to give PERFECT PEARL a breather at any stage despite being 10 lengths clear at the 800M.

 In assessing the penalty, the Stewards took into consideration Jockey SS Vanan’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 Jockey SS Vanan’s suspension at his request. He was suspended from riding in races for a period of 4 months with effect from 2 October 2017 and to expire on 1 February 2018, both dates inclusive. He was advised of his Right of Appeal (3:50pm).

Jockey SS Vanan subsequently exercised his Right of Appeal and applied for a Stay of Sentence. The Stewards considered the application for a stay which was allowed. The appeal hearing will be held at a date to be fixed.

RESUME RIDING: APP P HARIS

 The Stewards granted permission for App P Haris to resume riding as his suspension expired on 25 September 2017.

At about the 1000M, GOLDEN CHOICE (App WK Lee) shifted slightly to the outside causing D’GREAT ARES to be pushed to the right and have to check off the heels of ADMEISTER. After taking evidence from Jockey F Yap and Jockey SS Vanan and reviewing the films, it was established that no particular rider was to be blamed for this incident and as such the Stewards deemed it as a racing incident.

Turning into the straight, BIG GHOST raced greenly, shifted out abruptly, lost momentum and finished tailed out.

HK DOLLAR (H Bukhari) raced greenly and continually laid out in the straight.

At about the 300M, HK DOLLAR laid out in response to the jockey drawing his whip causing ADMEISTER to check and lose momentum.

ECLIPSE FORCE (Y Aify) which was beaten 23 1/2 lengths, will be required to pass a 1000M/vet test before being declared to race again for having a poor performance.

At about 400M, DROGBA (SU Lim) shifted out, taking SUNNY (App L De Souza), DRAGONFLY (M Zairi) and GOOD BABY (App AK Lim) to the right. At the same time, LISTEN (Y Aify) shifted inwards in response to the jockey drawing the whip causing GOOD BABY and DRAGONFLY to take a check and lose momentum. Jockey SU Lim and Jockey Y Aify were both shown the film of the incident, and were severely reprimanded and warned that they would be expected to display greater awareness of other horses and riders.

The Stewards opened an inquiry into the running and handling of TRUSON. After taking initial evidence from Jockey F Yap, the rider of TRUSON and Trainer F Maynard who was representing Trainer S Cook, the Trainer of TRUSON, the inquiry was adjourned to a date to be fixed. A post-race veterinary examination of TRUSON revealed no significant finding. The gelding was impounded.

This race was rescheduled to start at 4:30pm due to rain delay.

The State of Track was downgraded to “Yielding” after the running of this race.

Acting on veterinary advice that TEDDY BEAR (Y Aify) was found to have sustained superficial skin laceration on the near hind and to be lame near hind (float injury), the gelding was withdrawn by order of the Stewards at 2:19pm. TEDDY BEAR will be required to undergo a veterinary examination before being declared to race again.

On leaving the stalls, App S Zulfikri, the rider of BANKERS CALL, had his feet out of the irons and never regained them at any stage during the race. The Stewards opened an inquiry into this incident and after taking evidence from App S Zulfikri, in the presence of his Master, Trainer PS Kumaran, the Chief Starter and the Assistant Starter, the inquiry was adjourned to a date to be fixed.

POLO BOY (App AK Lim) was slow to begin.

LIM’S INVINCIBLE (App A Zaimuddin) raced fiercely on the outside in the first half of the race. From the 600M to the 400M, DIRAC (Lou Ho) was forced to race wide on the outside of LIM’S INVINCIBLE.

At about the 400M, KUTTNER (SU Lim) began to lay in under pressure. At about the 300M, KUTTNER had to be straightened to avoid the heels of POLO BOY. At about the 200M, when passing POLO BOY on the outside, he again laid inwards causing POLO BOY to check and at the 100M, he had to be straightened to avoid the heels of LIM’S INVINCIBLE.

This race was rescheduled to start at 5pm due to knock-on effect of rain delay in Race 7.

IMMORTALITY (App L De Souza) was late to get to the post due to a jockey change as App S Zulfikri felt unwell at a late stage and was subsequently stood down by the Club Doctor.

Jockey Lou Ho, the rider of CHIPS, felt unwell at the barriers and was subsequently declared unfit to ride by the Club Doctor. As there was insufficient time to arrange for a replacement rider, the Stewards ordered the withdrawal of CHIPS at 5:02pm.

MR DREYFUSS (App AM Aizat) was slow to begin.

SO THE THING (SS Vanan) jumped out to the right causing ZHAN SHEN (App WK Lee) to be brushed to the right and bumped with MR DREYFUSS.

SEE FOR YOURSELF (C Goon) raced wide throughout.

The weakening TAKE A BOW (App W Faizal) shifted out abruptly when struck with the whip inside the last 100M, forcing the rider to stop and straighten the gelding.

He was advised of his Right of Appeal (5:25pm).

At the conclusion of an inquiry, Jockey Y Aify, the rider of BLADEMEISTER, pleaded guilty to a charge of careless riding under MRA Rule 44(9)(a)(ii) in that at about the 200M, he allowed his horse to shift in under pressure for some considerable distance when insufficiently clear of NUMERO UNO (SU Lim) which was taken in to the inside towards BERNARD’S FIGHTER (App S Zulfikri) which was tightened against the rail.

In assessing the penalty, the Stewards took into consideration Jockey Y Aify’s guilty plea, mitigating factors, previous riding record and his submissions on penalty.

GENERAL REPORT(S) – SLTC

TUESDAY, 12 SEPTEMBER 2017, SELANGOR TURF CLUB

RESUME RIDING: JOCKEY LOU HO 

The Stewards granted permission for Jockey Lou Ho to resume riding as his suspension expired on 10 September 2017.

RACE 9 (R1145) CLASS 4 – 1200M (SHORT COURSE B), SUNDAY, 10 SEPTEMBER 2017, SELANGOR TURF CLUB SEPTEMBER MEETING 2017

The Stewards, on 15 September 2017 at the Selangor Turf Club, concluded an inquiry into the running and handling of CLIP THE TICKET in the above race. Evidence was taken from Jockey SU Lim and Trainer F Maynard, the rider and Trainer of CLIP THE TICKET respectively, and Trainer WC Lim who assisted Jockey SU Lim as an Interpreter.

The Stewards noted the evidence given by Jockey SU Lim. Furthermore, they reminded Trainer F Maynard of his responsibilities under MRA Rule 35(8) to notify the Stewards of a horse which he intends to be ridden in a different manner than in recent starts.

After observations of the films, the Stewards advised App L De Souza that in future he would be expected to ride all his horses with vigour in the latter stages of the race.

The Stewards took evidence from App AM Aizat, the rider of MYSTIC WARRIOR, in the presence of his Master, Trainer F Maynard.

RACE 2 (R1138)       CLASS 5 – 1200M (SHORT COURSE B)

The saddle on BLACK THORN (S Anandan) and the tongue-tie on SUPER BONUS (G Pereira) were readjusted behind the barriers.

D’GREAT WALL (SU Lim) was checked by the Veterinary Surgeon behind the barriers and was passed fit to race.

D’GREAT WALL was fractious in the barrier and jumped away awkwardly.

CHAMPAGNE ROSE (F Yap) and SURPRISE SURPRISE (App W Faizal) were both slow into stride.

DRAGON WALK (J De Souza) was unable to obtain cover and raced wide in the early part of the race.

Racing to the 300M, BLACK THORN raced greenly resulting in LIM’S RANGER (App A Zaimuddin) having to be steadied to obtain a clear run. BLACK THORN continued to race greenly at about the 200M resulting in Jockey S Anandan having to stop riding momentarily to straighten the gelding.

The Stewards questioned Trainer R Lines and Jockey J De Souza into the disappointing performance of DRAGON WALK. Trainer R Lines stated that his instructions were to be handy to midfield and this was confirmed from the Trainer’s Instruction Form. He explained that from Barrier 12, DRAGON WALK was unable to secure a forward position with cover causing the gelding to over-race and weaken badly in the straight as a consequence. He further stated that DRAGON WALK has been working well and could not offer any further explanation on the disappointing performance. Jockey J De Souza made similar comments.

The Stewards informed Trainer R Lines to report back to the Stewards if there is anything amiss with the gelding on returning to his stable. The Stewards noted their explanations.

METEOR GARDEN (S Anandan) was slow into stride.

At the conclusion of an inquiry today, App L De Souza, the rider of D’GREAT RICH, in the presence of his Master, Trainer R Lines, pleaded guilty to a charge under MRA Rule 44(6) in that he failed to ride his horse out to the end of the race to the satisfaction of the Stewards.  The particulars of the charge were that in the last 30M, he rode with insufficient vigour. App L De Souza admitted to the Stewards that he was unaware of SPLENDOR (App W Faizal) closing on his inside. He was fined RM2000/- and was advised of his Right of Appeal.

GAZOO (L Sofhan) stood still as the barriers opened and was slow to begin.

DELTA WING (G Pereira) was slowly into stride.

App S Zulfikri, the rider of SPIN FIRE, reported that at about the 100M mark, he switched his whip to his left hand and shortly afterwards, dropped his whip when it was knocked by contact with the whip of App A Zaimuddin, the rider of NOVA ACE.

The Stewards questioned Jockey L Sofhan and Trainer LN Danis into the disappointing performance of GAZOO. Jockey L Sofhan stated that the horse had a tendency to go to sleep in the barrier if left in more than a short period of time as it was today. He further stated that after a slow start, the horse raced lazily and he was able to make only moderate progress from the rear division in the straight.

Trainer LN Danis added that he had requested GAZOO to be loaded last but due to the misbehavior of SPIN FIRE, GAZOO had, in fact, been loaded second last. The Stewards noted their explanations.

The State of Track was upgraded to “Good” after the running of this race.

ZENZERO (C Goon) was slow to begin and required urging to take up a forward position.

Approaching the 1400M, ELEGENT (Y Aify) steadied to avoid the heels of SATELLITE LEGEND (M Zairi) which rolled in. D’GREAT HAWK (SU Lim) was briefly tightened against the rail in the same incident.

At about the 350M, AMI ELEVEN (App L De Souza) shifted out slightly under pressure.

WINNING STAR (S Anandan) which was beaten 23 lengths, will be required to pass a 1000M/vet test before being declared to race again for having a poor performance.

DIRAC (SU Lim) raced wide throughout without cover.

EQUALLY OPTIMISTIC (C Goon) was out-paced between the 800M and the 400M, and lost its position. The Stewards questioned Jockey C Goon, the rider of EQUALLY OPTIMISTIC, who stated that he tried his best to gain a handy position but was unable to do so and found himself in the middle of the pack. He was then forced to check and switch out inside the 400M to avoid running onto the heels of SPADE OF ACE (App AK Lim). After that, EQUALLY OPTIMISTIC proved one-paced in the concluding stages. The Stewards noted his comments.

STREET OF LONDON (M Zairi) had to be eased approaching the finish to avoid running onto the heels of SPADE OF ACE.

TAFFETAS (J De Souza) was briefly eased at the 500M as US DOLLAR (S Anandan) rolled in, had to be switched out repeatedly in the straight to obtain clear running.

The Stewards questioned Trainer M Sukri and App S Zulfikri into the performance of LEE BANK. Trainer M Sukri explained that the gelding had a tendency to get onto the wrong lead leg around the bend and hung to the outside. App S Zulfikri stated that LEE BANK was tractable in the straight but proved impossible to handle around the bend. As a consequence of this, LEE BANK will be required to pass a 1000M/vet test before being declared to race again for a having poor performance. The Stewards informed Trainer M Sukri that he should carefully consider whether it is appropriate to use an Apprentice Jockey on a horse with such awkward racing manners.

RACE 9 (R1145)       CLASS 4 – 1200M (SHORT COURSE B)

MAGICAL TALENT (App L De Souza) was slow to begin.

BATTLE KING (M Zairi) was slowly into stride, raced poorly and finished tailed out. Jockey M Zairi reported that his horse’s bit had slipped through its mouth. In view of the gelding’s poor performance and its long absence from the track before this race, BATTLE KING which was beaten 19 lengths, will be required to pass a 1000M/vet test before being declared to race again.

Approaching the 200M, CLIP THE TICKET (SU Lim) switched out when insufficiently clear which caused MAGICAL TALENT to be taken out to the right onto IDEAL GUIDE (J De Souza).

When attempting to find clear running at about the 200M, ONE FOR ALL (App M Hanif) ran onto the heels of SATELLITE BOY (App AK Lim) causing App AK Lim to switch sharply to the outside. Thereafter ONE FOR ALL finished the race wide.

TAKEAIM was disappointed for a run and switched in at about the 200M.

The Stewards opened an inquiry into the riding of CLIP THE TICKET which finished unplaced. After taking evidence from Jockey SU Lim and Trainer F Maynard, the rider and Trainer of CLIP THE TICKET respectively, the Stewards adjourned the inquiry to a date to be fixed.

An inquiry into the whip use of Jockey SS Vanan, the rider of GIBRALTAR PARK, will be held at a date to be fixed. 

At the conclusion of an inquiry, Jockey L Sofhan, the rider of LORD OF SHANGHAI, pleaded guilty to a charge of careless riding under MRA Rule 44(9)(a)(ii) in that at about the 300M in this race, he switched out for a clear run when insufficiently clear of IDEAL GUIDE (J De Souza) causing that horse to be checked.

In assessing the penalty, the Stewards took into consideration Jockey L Sofhan’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 Jockey L Sofhan’s suspension. He was suspended from riding in races for a period of two (2) Malaysian race days with effect from 18 September 2017 and to expire on 24 September 2017, both dates inclusive. He was advised of his Right of Appeal (5:50pm).

JUBILATION (M Zairi) got cast in the barrier. Acting on veterinary advice that JUBILATION had sustained injury to both of its hind and off fore legs, the gelding was withdrawn by order of the Stewards at 5:05pm. The gelding will be required to undergo a veterinary examination before being declared to race again.

GRAND SHOW (App AM Aizat) and BIG MOTOR (A Nawawi) were both slow to find their strides.

At about the 400M, TOTALITY (App AK Lim) clipped heels with KING ROULETTE (App M Hanif) causing App AK Lim to be unseated. LIM’S BATTLE (App A Zaimuddin) shied away from the faller and BIG MOTOR was forced to take evasive action at the rear of the field.  App AK Lim was subsequently examined by the Club Doctor and although not seriously hurt, was stood down from his remaining riding engagement for the day.

At about the 300M, GRAND SHOW was disappointed for a run and shortly thereafter, shifted out causing a minor brush with LUCKY SIXTYSIX (SS Vanan).

                                    PERTH RACING TROPHY

Trainer R Lines was fined RM100/- under MRA Rule 65(5)(c) for failing to produce the declared colours on FRANCES.

TILSWORTH MALI (SU Lim) which cast its near hind plate, had to be reshod behind the barriers.

DIRAC (TK Barnabas) which was racing tight to the inside of SEE FOR YOURSELF (App S Saddam), had to be steadied and lost ground when SEE FOR YOURSELF rolled in away from GERMANIC (HS Gill).

POLO BOY (App AK Lim) raced wide from the 700M until entering the straight.

The Stewards questioned App M Hanif, the rider of SO THE THING, in the presence of his Master, Trainer LN Danis, and Trainer PS Kumaran, the Trainer of SO THE THING, into the reasons why the mare was slow to begin. App M Hanif stated that when the gates were released, he gave SO THE THING a good rein to jump but it threw its head up, and for several strides, the mare continued to throw its head and then he elected to ride forward and the mare commenced to over-race and raced fiercely. He added that racing to the 1200M, he had to check to avoid the heels of FRANCES (App L De Souza) and shifted ground. He further stated that SO THE THING continued to pull and was very difficult to ride until entering the straight and when placed under pressure at the 400M, it failed to respond to his riding.

Trainer PS Kumaran confirmed the instructions were to be handy and this was confirmed from the Trainer’s Instruction Form. App M Hanif reported after the race that SO THE THING was sore. A post-race veterinary examination of SO THE THING revealed no significant finding. The mare was impounded. The Stewards adjourned the inquiry to a date to be fixed.

The Stewards questioned App S Uzair, the rider of BIRRALEE ROAD, in the presence of his Master, Trainer L Moy. App S Uzair explained that over the final 200M, as BIRRALEE ROAD was responding well with his hands and heels, he elected not to use the whip. The Stewards noted his explanation.

The Stewards questioned Jockey S Ruzaini, the rider of ITS ONLY MONEY, into his vigour in the straight from about the 400M to the 200M. He was shown the vision of the race and was warned to ride all his mounts in such a manner so as to leave no room for query and that he should ride with sufficient vigour throughout the race.

Racing to the 300M, IMPEL (App A Zaimuddin) shifted in to obtain a clear run.

Racing to the 100M, IMPEL shifted out across the heels of BIG ROLE (App S Saddam) for clear running and as a result, THESE STREETS had to be steadied. App A Zaimuddin, the rider of IMPEL, in the presence of his Master, Trainer BT Lim, was shown the vision of the race and was warned that in future he would be expected to exercise greater care when shifting ground under similar circumstances in future.

STIPENDIARY STEWARDS’ REPORT

SELANGOR TURF CLUB AUGUST MEETING 2017

                                            SATURDAY, 19 AUGUST 2017

STATE OF TRACK: Yielding (Races 1 & 2), upgraded to “Good” after Race 2.

Panel of Stipendiary Stewards:

Mr Philip Anderson (Acting Chief Stipendiary Steward), Mr Thanaraja Kasinathan (Stipendiary Steward) & Mr Nigel Chong (Cadet Stipendiary Steward).

RACE 1 (R1035)       CLASS 5 – 1400M (SHORT COURSE A)

SWISS BANK (App A Zaimuddin) over-raced in the middle stages of the race.

The Stewards showed App W Faizal, the rider of VALENTINE BABY, the vision of the final 100M, and warned him that he must have better control of his mounts when shifting out under the whip.

The Stewards questioned Jockey L Sofhan and Trainer LN Danis, the rider and trainer of MANMADHAN respectively into the mare’s poor performance today. Jockey L Sofhan stated that his instructions were to be midfield. He explained that the mare had no early pace, failed to respond to his riding at any stage when being put under pressure with the whip, found nothing and ran a disappointing race.

Trainer LN Danis confirmed the instructions, and stated that the mare had been working well and he was very disappointed with the run. The Stewards informed Trainer LN Danis to report back to the Stewards if there is anything amiss with the mare on returning to his stable. Their explanations were noted. A post-race veterinary examination of MANMADHAN revealed no significant finding.

The Stewards warned Jockey L Sofhan that in future he must obtain the Stewards’ permission to leave the jockey’s room prior to the conclusion of his riding engagements.

At the conclusion of an inquiry, App AM Aizat, the rider of SWAN SONG, in the presence of his Master, Trainer F Maynard, pleaded guilty to a charge under MRA Rule 44(2) in that he failed to arrive on course within the prescribed time prior to his riding engagement. In assessing the penalty, the Stewards took into consideration App AM Aizat’s guilty plea, mitigating factors, previous record and his submissions on penalty.  He was fined RM250/- and advised of his Right of Appeal.

PACHELBEL’S CANON (Y Narredu) had to steady racing to the 200M when the MILLIONAIRE (Y Aify) laid out at the same time as THE OMEGA MAN (J De Souza) laid in.

The Stewards questioned Jockey Y Aify and Trainer L Moy, the rider and Trainer of THE MILLIONAIRE respectively, into Jockey Y Aify’s ride on the gelding. Jockey Y Aify explained that at about 100M after the start, he had to steady his mount to avoid the heels of DROGBA (App AK Lim) and as a result, was unable to be midfield as his instructions. He further stated that racing to the 700M, he again had to check off the heels of DROGBA and clipped that gelding’s heels, taking him back to last. He informed the Stewards that racing to the 200M, when drawing the whip, he dropped his reins for a short distance.

Trainer L Moy confirmed the instructions and after due consideration, the Stewards took into account what happened to THE MILLIONAIRE during the race and took no further action. The Stewards noted their explanations.

The Stewards questioned Trainer S Hamilton into the improved performance of GABBAR (S Salee). She explained that GABBAR has been racing consistently prior to its last start and today, the gelding was better suited in the going. She also stated that she expected the gelding to run a good race and had no other explanation for the improved performance. The Stewards noted her explanation.

STIPENDIARY STEWARDS’ REPORT
SELANGOR TURF CLUB JANUARY MEETING 2017
SATURDAY, 7 JANUARY 2017

STATE OF TRACK: Good

(Running rail out 4M for the entire circuit)

Panel of Stipendiary Stewards:

Mr Michael Castillo (Chief Stipendiary Steward), Mr Thanaraja Kasinathan (Stipendiary Steward), Mr Nigel Chong (Cadet Stipendiary Steward) & Mr Jarry Chong (Stipendiary Steward).

RACE 1 (R044) CLASS 5 – 1300M (SHORT COURSE B)

STREET CHAMP became restless in the barriers and reared high in the air, dislodging Jockey C Goon out the back gate. Jockey C Goon was examined by the Club Doctor and was found unfit to fulfill his riding engagements for the remainder of the day. The gelding was withdrawn by order of the Stewards at 1:20pm. Trainer C Leck will be advised that STREET CHAMP will be required to pass a 1000M/vet (from the Starting Stall) test before being declared to race again.

SUPER EIGHTYTHREE (SS Vanan) was slow to begin.

DUBLEO BEAUTY (HK Cheng) jumped outwards and bumped KIM SALUTE.

DUBLEO BEAUTY, PHILIP (J Low) and GOLD STAR PRINCESS (App S Zulfikri) all raced wide throughout the event.

Making the turn at the 1000M, BLACK TRISTAR (App A Zaimuddin) raced ungenerously and got its head up when racing to the inside of KING OF SEAL (HS Gill).

DUBLEO BEAUTY had a tendency to lay in between the 400M to the 200M and had to be eased by its rider on several occasions.

Upon returning to scales, App M Hanif, the rider of KIM SALUTE, reported that his saddle slipped sideways slightly during running.

The Stewards questioned Jockey J Low into the riding tactics of PHILIP in particular in the home straight of the event. Jockey J Low reported that the gelding had a tendency to lay inwards and over the concluding stages, failed to respond to his riding and that was his reason for not riding out. The Stewards, after viewing the official patrol films, reminded him of his obligations to ensure that at all stages, he rides fully to the end of the line.

Stipendiary Stewards’ Report 1
SLTC, Saturday, 7 January 2017

The Stewards questioned Jockey J De Souza as to the riding tactics that were adopted on NEW CLASSMATE. At the conclusion of an inquiry, Jockey J De Souza, the rider of NEW CLASSMATE, was found guilty of a charge under MRA Rule 44(6) in that he failed to ride his horse out to the end of the race to the satisfaction of the Stewards. The particulars of the charge were that over the concluding stages, for 3 strides from the winning post, he dropped his hands and as a result, he ran fifth, allowing JP REGIS (App WK Lee) to finish fourth.

In assessing the penalty, the Stewards took into consideration that Jockey J De Souza was riding a favourite in this event and the nose margin between the 2 runners. Jockey J De Souza was suspended for a period of one (1) month with effect from 9 January 2017 and to expire on 8 February 2017, both dates inclusive. He was advised of his Right of Appeal.

The Stewards and 3 Veterinary Surgeons inspected REYSHA (J Shankar) at the blood sample collection area, in the presence of Trainer LN Danis. After extensive tests, the gelding showed very minimal lameness which was well within the acceptable level, however due to the slight swelling, the Stewards and Veterinary Surgeons were not totally satisfied and ordered the withdrawal of the gelding at 12:35pm. Trainer LN Danis was advised that REYSHA will be barred from racing for a period of 1 month and will be required to pass a 1000M/vet test after the completion of that period, before being declared to race again

CHASE THE DREAM (S Ruzaini) was slow to begin.

LIM’S CHARGE (HS Gill) reared outwards at the start, unbalancing its rider.

Shortly after the start, JET ACE (Lou Ho) was buffeted for some distance when WINGED FOOT (J De Souza) shifted outwards and STEERING (App A Zaimuddin) shifted inwards.

ACME (SS Vanan) had a tendency to over-race in the early stages, got its head up and raced ungenerously.

RAINBOW CENTRE (App SU Lim) and LIM’S CHARGE (HS Gill) raced wide in the early and middle stages.

Stipendiary Stewards’ Report 2
SLTC, Saturday, 7 January 2017

Upon returning to scales, App A Zaimuddin, the rider of STEERING, reported that his horse raced greenly.

STEERING which was beaten 22 1/2 lengths and LIM’S CHARGE which was distanced, will each be required to pass a 1000M/vet test before being declared to race again for having poor performance.

SWISS BANK (App A Zaimuddin) jumped awkwardly and raced wide throughout the event.

Approaching the 1000M, D’GREAT RICH (J Low) began to race fiercely, got its head up and had to be eased off runners in front and lost ground as a consequence.

Approaching the 200M, PATERSON ROAD (App M Hanif) had to be checked off the heels of LIM’S RESPOND (HS Gill) which commenced to give ground.

The Stewards questioned Jockey J De Souza and Trainer R Lines into the disappointing performance of D’GREAT WALL in this event. Jockey J De Souza stated that shortly after the start, the gelding appeared to race flat despite his efforts and he placed it under pressure in an endeavour to improve its position at the 800M but it failed to respond to his riding.

Trainer R Lines stated that he was happy with Jockey J De Souza’s ride as he rode to his instructions to gain a midfield position as in its previous start, it was ridden forward, had a tendency to over-race and failed to finish off over the final stages. Trainer R Lines further explained that he was happy with its work leading into the event and could not offer any explanation into the disappointing performance. The Stewards informed Trainer R Lines to report back to the Stewards if there is anything amiss with the gelding on returning to his stable. Their explanations were noted for future reference. A post-race veterinary examination of D’GREAT WALL revealed no significant finding.

Trainer A Scott was fined RM100/- under MRA Rule 65(5)(c) for failing to produce the declared colours on GREENSTONE (Y Aify).

The Stewards questioned Jockey HS Gill into the tactics that were adopted into his riding of KISS ME to the barriers in particular why he strongly galloped to the barriers. He reported that the horse has always been scratchy in its action and requires a good fast warm-up prior to its races and he further explained that in its previous race starts, he has done the same and the gelding has performed creditably. The Stewards, after reviewing its previous race starts, was satisfied and noted his comments for future reference.

Upon jumping, WONDERFUL SURPRISE (SS Vanan) jumped outwards and D’GREAT EMINENCE (J Low) jumped inwards resulting in CHINO DIABLO (App SU Lim) being placed in restricted racing room.

Approaching the 150M, DANCING TSURU (J De Souza) had a tendency to lay inwards resulting in the rider having to stop and straighten on several occasions.

Approaching the 100M, WONDERFUL SURPRISE had to shift out over the heels of LONESOME ME (App CK Khaw) in order to gain clear running.

The Stewards questioned Jockey Y Aify into the tactics that were adopted on GREENSTONE in particular in the front straight, why he failed to show sufficient vigour as required by the Stewards. Jockey Y Aify reported that on entering the front straight, the gelding had a tendency to lay inwards and as a result, he had to shift his whip from his right hand to his left hand in order to stop the gelding from hanging inwards and this placed him at a disadvantage as it was not his natural strong arm. He further explained that over the final 200M, the gelding continued to lay inwards and for this reason, he was

Stipendiary Stewards’ Report 5
SLTC, Saturday, 7 January 2017

unable to use the whip in the normal manner and the gelding is better suited to a longer distance.

The Stewards advised him that they were not fully satisfied, however, gave him the “benefit of the doubt” on this occasion. His comments were noted for future reference.

The start of this race was further delayed when SACRED CITY (J De Souza) proved difficult to be loaded into the barriers and when inside the barriers, reared on numerous occasions resulting in its off fore leg being stuck in the next barrier. The gelding again reared resulting in its near fore leg becoming stuck in the front gate. SACRED CITY will be required to pass a 1000M/vet (from the starting stall) test before being declared to race again.

ACE SURPRISE (SS Vanan) and MR DREYFUSS (HK Cheng) were both slow to begin.

Approaching the 900M, MR DREYFUSS had to be eased off the heels of ALOHA (HS Gill) which rolled in marginally.

Upon returning to scales, App T Krisna, the rider of ELF’S DREAM, reported that his horse raced greenly.

SELANGOR TURF CLUB JANUARY MEETING 2017 (TUNKU GOLD CUP – Triple Crown Series 1st Leg)
MONDAY, 30 JANUARY 2017

STATE OF TRACK: Good

(Running rail in true position for the entire circuit)

Panel of Stipendiary Stewards:

Mr Michael Castillo (Chief Stipendiary Steward), Mr Thanaraja Kasinathan (Stipendiary Steward) & Mr Nigel Chong (Cadet Stipendiary Steward).

RACE 1 (R143) CLASS 5 – 1400M (LONG COURSE A)
SUCCESS ALL THE WAY STAKES

App R Fakruddin was fined RM100/- for negligence under MRA Rule 152(5)(a) for failing to utilize his claim fully on RUBICON.

SATELLITE LEGEND (Lou Ho) was examined by the Club Veterinary Surgeon behind the barriers at the request of Jockey Lou Ho as he felt that there was something amiss with the gelding’s actions. The gelding was subsequently passed fit to take its place in the field.

The start was further delayed when RUBICON (App R Fakruddin) was fractious behind the barriers and was difficult to be loaded into the barriers.

Upon jumping, ANGEL OF MINE (App WK Lee) shifted outwards and SIXDAY SEVENNIGHT (Y Aify) shifted inwards, severely crowding JUST NAME IT (App SU Lim) for room.

RUBICON jumped outwards and made contact with VALENTINE BABY (J Shankar).

WENONA’S LEGACY (J De Souza) was caught racing wide in the early stages before progressing forward and gaining a position outside the leader approaching the 800M.

SATELLITE LEGEND and POWERFUL FIGHTER (App CK Khaw) were both caught racing wide throughout the event.

RAINBOW CENTRE (App AK Lim) was held up for a clear run entering the front straight behind runners in front.

Approaching the 200M, ANGEL OF MINE was held up for a run and had to shift out off the heels of RAINBOW CENTRE in order to gain a clear run.

Stipendiary Stewards’ Report 1
SLTC, Monday, 30 January 2017

Approaching the 200M, RUBICON which was held up for a run, had to be eased off the heels of JERAM GLORY (M Ganeesh).

Upon returning to scales, App AK Lim, the rider of RAINBOW CENTRE, reported that his horse raced greenly.

The Stewards opened an inquiry into the tactics that were adopted on JERAM GLORY (M

Ganeesh) particularly in the home straight. The Stewards’ concern was Jockey M Ganeesh failed to take a run to the outside of WENONA’S LEGACY in the home straight when there was an opportunity to do so, and he elected to stay to the inside where in the opinion of the Stewards, there would be insufficient room to obtain a clear run.

After taking extensive evidence from Jockey M Ganeesh and Trainer WC Lim and after viewing the gelding’s previous race starts in particular its racing manners, the Stewards were satisfied with the Trainer’s explanations and gave Jockey M Ganeesh the “benefit of the doubt” on this occasion. Jockey M Ganeesh was cautioned in the strongest terms that when clear runs present themselves, he should ensure he attempts to take them if possible to gain the best possible placing.

GOOD FORTUNE STAKES

After viewing the patrol films and taking into account the evidence tendered at the inquiry, the Stewards did not take any action on this occasion against Jockey F Yap, however, reminded him of his obligations of what is required by the Panel of the Stipendiary Stewards in future.

RACE 7 (R141) CLASS 5 – 1400M (LONG COURSE A), SUNDAY, 29 JANUARY 2017, SELANGOR TURF CLUB JANUARY MEETING 2017

The Stewards took evidence from App M Hanif, in the presence of his Master, Trainer LN Danis. At the conclusion of the inquiry, App M Hanif, the rider of KABALI, pleaded guilty to a charge of careless riding under MRA Rule 44(9)(a)(ii) in that he allowed his horse to shift in whilst riding with the whip causing IT’S DONE MATE (App AK Lim) being interfered with and should have straightened his horse sooner than he did on this occasion.

In assessing the penalty, the Stewards took into consideration App M Hanif’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 App M Hanif’s suspension. He was suspended from riding in races for a period of two (2) Malaysian race days with effect from 5 February 2017 and to expire on 12 February 2017, both dates inclusive. He was advised of his Right of Appeal (12:40pm).
