RACE NO.1(129) –THE TATTERSALLS MILLION: (About) 1400 Metres – Runners - 7 

 

On arrival at the start, HODSON’S HORSE (S.A.Amit) was examined by the Club’s Sr.V.O. who certified him fit to race.

 

KING KHALIL (Yash Narredu) refused to be stalled despite substantial efforts, as such the gelding was withdrawn before coming under the Starter’s order. After being stalled, BARACK (Leigh Roche) played up and flipped over in the stall and thereafter bolted rider-less towards the Winning Post. As such BARACK was also withdrawn before coming under the Starter’s order. All the other horses which were stalled were unloaded and later re-stalled once BARACK was apprehended.  Trainers Deepesh Narredu and P.Shroff have been asked to give their respective charge more gate practice and show them to the satisfaction of the Starter at morning starting trials, before next accepting to race.

 

Jockey Sunny Chenoy (USTAD PEDRO) was observed to have used the whip in excess of the prescribed limit on his mount. After the race Jockey Sunny Chinoy reported that his mount hung out and he had used the whip as a corrective measure, as such no action was taken against him. However, Trainer Narendra Lagad has been asked to take remedial measures before next accepting to race the gelding.

 

An objection was lodged by Jockey S.A.Amit, the rider of HODSON’S HORSE (Placed Third) against USTAD PEDRO (Sunny Chinoy, Placed Second). The reason being, in the last furlong, USTAD PEDRO  came on to him very sharply whereby he had to stop riding and check his horse. Further, USTAD PEDRO kept drifting out and took him out all the way which cost him certain second place.

 

After considering the submissions made by Jockey Sunny Chinoy and Jockey S.A.Amit who was accompanied by Trainer Adhirajsingh Jodha, in conjunction with that of the Stipendiary Stewards and relying on their judgement, the Stewards upheld the objection and revised the order of placing of the race as under :-

 

HELLS BELLS                                     -               FIRST;                   USTAD PEDRO                  -               THIRD;

HODSON’S HORSE                          -               SECOD;                PERPETUAL WINNING    -               FOURTH

 

In the above connection, the Stewards directed the Stipendiary Stewards to initiate action against Jockey Sunny Chinoy for careless riding on his mount USTAD PEDRO.  Accordingly, the Stipendiary Stewards decided to suspend Jockey Sunny Chinoy from riding in races for 1 Race Day i.e. on 21st February, 2019 for careless riding (permitted to ride work/mock race).

 

The Sr.V.O. reported that HODSON’S HORSE came back in distress. After cold water hosing and First Aid treatment, the gelding recovered and was sent to the stable.

Consequent to Jockey Robbie Downey (MISHKA’S PRIDE) being unable to draw the declared weight on his mount, the Stewards permitted Trainer Imtiaz A.Sait to declare Jockey Akshay Kumar on MISHKA’S PRIDE. The Stewards of the Club at their meeting held after the races interviewed Jockey Robbie Downey in the above connection and having heard him, decided to caution him for having accepted the ride on MISHKA’S PRIDE despite him being aware that he could not draw the weight thus failing to fulfill his riding engagement.
