The Panel of Stewards questioned App CT Lee into his ride on THE MILLIONAIRE in the presence of his stand-in Employing Trainer Bonny Ng and Trainer K Coetzee, the trainer of THE MILLIONAIRE, as to why App CT Lee got well back in the field.  Trainer K Coetzee explained that his instructions were to be mid-field and after jumping with the field, THE MILLIONAIRE had became unbalanced at the start and as a result,  App CT Lee had got further back than expected.  App CT Lee explained that after the awkward start, the pace of the race was too fast for THE MILLIONAIRE and that was the reason he got back in the race.  The Panel of Stewards after considering all evidence and reviewing the films, advised App CT Lee that he must ride in a manner to leave no room for query and that he must show more initiative in his rides.

COLORADO PRINCE (App S Saddam) shifted out on jumping away and crowded QUEEN FORCE (HK Cheng) which had to check and lost its position.

ULTIMATE HERO (App R Ruwaidy) jumped away awkwardly.

COLORADO PRINCE had to be checked racing to the 800M when it laid out onto the heels of DAWN PROSPECT (F Yap) and as a consequence, when being checked, COLORADO PRINCE shifted out and bumped EMPIRE BAY (AK Lim).

EMPIRE BAY had to check to avoid the heels of FORTUNE SPIRIT (S Anandan) racing to the 600M when FORTUNE SPIRIT rolled in.

Jockey S Anandan, the rider of FORTUNE SPIRIT reported that his mount was not striding out freely.  A post-race veterinary examination of FORTUNE SPIRIT revealed no obvious abnormality.

Prior to the ‘All Clear’ being given, an objection was lodged by Jockey Z Khairil, the rider of SONIC-X placed 4th against ARTEMISTER (App P Mogun), being declared the winner on grounds of alleged interference inside the final 200M.   After considering all the evidence, the Panel of Stewards were of the opinion that the alleged interference had not affected the result of the race.  The objection was overruled and the results stood.

At the conclusion of an inquiry today, App P Mogun, the rider of ARTEMISTER pleaded guilty to a charge of careless riding under MRA Rule 44(9)(a)(ii) in that over the final 100M, he shifted out when insufficiently clear of SONIC-X, resulting in SONIC-X having to check and shift ground inwards to obtain clear running.

In assessing the penalty, the Panel of Stewards took into consideration App P Mogun’s guilty plea and mitigating factors.   App P Mogun was suspended from riding in races for a period of two (2) Malaysian race days, effective from Monday, 19th August 2019 and to expire on 25th August 2019, both dates inclusive.   He was advised of his right of appeal (3.55pm)
