RACE 3 (R833) CLASS 4 (B) – 1100M (SHORT COURSE A)
L’KEN (App R Nuqman) was slow to begin.
SO THE THING (App S Saddam) veered outwards at the start and collided heavily with D’GREAT SONG (R Shafiq) which had to be restrained and lost considerable ground.
At about the 300M, KUTTNER (AK Lim) had to be steadied when laying in onto the heels of SMOOTHLY (S Ruzaini).
A post-race veterinary examination of BATTLE HORSE 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.
When questioned, Jockey R Shafiq stated that D’GREAT SONG had been interfered badly at the start when the horse on his inside had veered outwards, thereafter the mare raced with its head in the air and appeared to resent the kickback. He had taken D’GREAT SONG outwards before the 550M to avoid the kickback, and had pushed the mare from this stage but it failed to respond. A subsequent veterinary examination of D’GREAT SONG revealed no significant finding.

Jockey HS Gill stated that he had led the race when ARC CARA progressed on his outside and was ¾ length in advance of him. He had called on 3 occasions and as Jockey M Ganeesh eventually steadied when ARC CARA shifted in near the 500M. In assessing this incident, the Stewards were of the opinion that the level of impediment did not justify a charge, however, advised Jockey M Ganeesh that he should afford runners on his inside sufficient room at all times.
