12/10/2014  Shatin  Race 8

D'OR WONGCHOY began awkwardly. Shortly after the start, TURBO JEWELLERY was steadied away from the heels of MIGHTY K which shifted in. CLUB LIFE got its head up on jumping and then, despite being ridden along in the early stages, was slow to muster speed. D Whyte (BULLISH SMART) was found guilty of a charge of careless riding [Rule 100(1)] in that after the 1300 Metres he permitted his mount to shift in when not sufficiently clear of FORGIVE AND FORGET, causing that horse to be checked and in turn shift in onto GRACEFUL KINGDOM which was hampered. D Whyte was suspended from riding in races for a period to expire on Monday, 10 November 2014 on which day he may resume race riding (3 Hong Kong racedays). The commencement of the suspension was deferred until after the Sha Tin racemeeting on Sunday, 26 October 2014. After the 1000 Metres, KIROV and SHINY DAY were left racing wide and without cover. GOOD GOOD VIEW had difficulty obtaining clear running in the early part of the Straight. N Rawiller (WHAT YOU DREAM) pleaded guilty to a charge of careless riding [Rule 100(1)] in that passing the 400 Metres he permitted his mount to shift in when not clear of MIGHTY K, resulting in that horse being hampered and taken in onto GRACEFUL KINGDOM which was checked and in turn taken in onto GOOD GOOD VIEW which was severely hampered. TURBO JEWELLERY, which was following, was hampered in consequence. Taking into consideration the circumstances of this matter and the nature of the interference suffered by GRACEFUL KINGDOM and GOOD GOOD VIEW, the Stewards believed the appropriate penalty was for N Rawiller to be suspended from riding in races for a period to expire on Monday, 10 November 2014 on which day he may resume race riding (3 Hong Kong racedays). The commencement of the suspension was deferred until after the Sha Tin racemeeting on Sunday, 26 October 2014. FORGIVE AND FORGET was unable to obtain clear running until passing the 200 Metres. The performance of SHINY DAY, which finished tailed out, was considered unacceptable. Before being allowed to race again, SHINY DAY will be required to perform to the satisfaction of the Stewards in an official barrier trial and be subjected to an official veterinary examination. A veterinary inspection of KIROV and D'OR WONGCHOY immediately following the race did not show any significant findings. WHAT YOU DREAM and GOOD GOOD VIEW were sent for sampling.
