RACE 4 (MRA 0548)   CLASS 4 (A) – 1100M

The Stewards permitted App Z Syafifie to replace Jockey S Saddam as the rider of GEORGETOWN when the latter was stood down by the Club Medical Officer and there was no suitable jockey available.

GHOST MARI (R Narendran) having been loaded, was slightly fractious in the barrier,  resulting in the saddle slipping back and  the gelding having to be removed from the starting stall and re-saddled.

GHOST MARI  jumped awkwardly outwards, brushing EXDREAM (L De  Souza).

GEORGETOWN jumped awkwardly inwards, brushing EXDREAM which lost ground in both incidents.

GEORGETOWN shifted in under the whip at the later stages.
