RACE 5 (R721)         CLASS 5 (A) – 1200M (SHORT COURSE)

WATERMELON (MM Firdaus) raced wide throughout.

The Stewards inquired into App A Suriya’s riding of STAY SOUND. Trainer C Leck advised that STAY SOUND was a 6-year-old, 11 start Maiden and he had instructed that it would be ridden patiently as the gelding had a poor action, and was adversely affected when STAY SOUND was ridden vigourously in the early stages. Further, he had instructed App A Suriya to gradually make ground in the straight as he had not wished STAY SOUND to become unbalanced.

App A Suriya concurred with these instructions and advised that running to the first turn, he had been in a rearward position and surrounded by runners, he had allowed STAY SOUND to become balanced in the straight and had ridden it vigourously when it had run on only moderately.

Trainer C Leck tendered evidence of significant stable support. The Stewards accepted the explanations, however, advised Trainer C Leck that he must inform the Stewards if there was an intention to change the manner in which STAY SOUND was ridden in future.

A post-race veterinary examination of TRINITY LAD (A Zaimuddin) 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 6 (R722)         CLASS 3 – 1100M (SHORT COURSE)

TOUCH THE CLOUDS (MM Firdaus) was slow into stride.

In the early stages, TOUCH THE CLOUDS and EBRAZ (Y Aify) could not keep in touch with the field despite being ridden vigourously.

In the straight, ROCKET PEGASUS (S Ruzaini) raced erratically near the finish.

A post-race veterinary examination of DIAMONDS (J Daniel) 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.

Near the 750M, ASIAN TIGER (App AB Riduan) had to be restrained when striding onto the heels of FIRST PRECINCT (J Shankar).

PEARL DANCER (S Ruzaini) raced wide on straightening.

RED SYMPHONY (CK Khaw) was ridden wide in the middle stages and was impeded near the 200M when GASSUR (Y Aify) shifted out. The Stewards inquired into Jockey CK Khaw’s ride on RED SYMPHONY. He stated that it was his first ride on the gelding and that he had been instructed to ride midfield, however, had been unable to secure a position close to the fence as MERCURIAL TURN (J De Souza) had kicked up on his inside and he was trapped wide until straightening. He had then tried to secure a passage in the straight before riding RED SYMPHONY vigourously. The Stewards warned Jockey CK Khaw that he must ensure that he rides all his horses in a manner which is positive and to ensure they are be fully tested.
