RED EASTERN (Y Aify) showed reluctance to proceed to the start position before the race, and was then slow to begin and forfeited several lengths. RED EASTERN will be required to pass a 1000M/vet (from the starting stall, to be ridden unaided to the start) test before being declared to race again.
LIM'S CHARGE (HS Gill) jumped outwards and bumped TILSWORTH MALI (L Sofhan) outwards onto ELEGENT (App WK Lee) and as a result, TILSWORTH MALI was unable to obtain a forward position in the early stages. When questioned, Jockey L Sofhan, the rider of TILSWORTH MALI, stated that his instructions were in fact to settle the mare in a mid-to-back position.
Trainer SY Lim was questioned by the Stewards about the apparent change of tactics. He stated that TILSWORTH MALI had jumped well on her previous start and obtained a forward position without being urged, although it was his intention for her to race mid-to-back on that occasion.
The Stewards warned Trainer SY Lim that he must take greater care to attend his responsibilities under MRA Rule 35(8) regarding notification of tactical changes prior to the race. They informed him that if he wishes TILSWORTH MALI to be ridden prominently next time, he must notify the Stewards accordingly. A post-race veterinary examination of TILSWORTH MALI revealed no significant finding.
AMAZING (App CK Khaw) was slow to begin.
ZENZERO (App N Varmah) jumped awkwardly outwards, causing POWERFUL FIGHTER (J De Souza) to be taken wider after the jump.
Approaching the 1000M, TILSWORTH MALI was crowded between ARCHER COMPANY (R Rueven) which laid inwards and LIM'S CHARGE (HS Gill).
At about the 350M, AMAZING was shifted inwards to avoid the heels of ARCHER COMPANY.
