Stewards' Reports for Sharjah Equestrian & Racing Club
The Stewards allowed a request from Trainer, Mr O Mohammed, to replace Jockey A De Vries as the declared rider on WADI AL SAIL (US), with Jockey R Mullen. The Stewards had previously spoken to the agent of Jockey A De Vries (Mr B Williams), and also the Trainer, Mr O Mohammed, and it was established that there was some confusion as to the booking, given that the Trainer had requested the services of Jockey S Hitchcott, who also utilizes Mr B Williams as his agent. TAYR AL ABABIL (AE) (A Ajtebi) and TOHFET ALNADHERINE (AE) (S Hitchcott) were fractious in the parade ring. Trainers Mr S Deeb and Dr J Bittar were advised that TAYR AL ABABIL (AE) and TOHFET ALNADHERINE (AE) respectively would be required to paddock school to the satisfaction of the Stewards prior to being entered to race again. DARFOR (US) (T Koyuncu), MARTAH AL REEF (AE) (S Al Mazrooei) and PURE PLATINUM (GB) (R Ffrench) were slow to begin. PURE PLATINUM (GB) raced erratically in the early stages. DARFOR (US), WADI AL SAIL (US) (R Mullen), MARTAH AL REEF (AE), SHMER (AE) (S Trabelsi), JAP MIZOON (AE) (D Smith), KAHEELA RADIM (AE) (S Al Taleei) and TOHFET ALNADHERINE (AE) all raced waywardly, shifting ground inwards and outwards throughout the race.

BAREK W’RSAN (AE) (A Ajtebi) and AF ATLAAL (AE) (S James) began awkwardly. GHATEEF W’RSAN (AE) (S Hitchcott) and JAP AL ATAAF (AE) (H Bentley) bumped on jumping and for a short distance after the start.

On return to the scales, an objection was lodged by the 2nd placed rider, X Ziani (JAP RAHAAL [AE]) against the 1st placed BENYAN (AE) (T O’Shea), alleging interference over the final 150m. After taking into account the submissions of both riders and viewing the available patrol footage, it was evident that JAP RAHAAL (AE) did angle to the outside of BENYAN (AE) leaving the 150m. The Stewards were particularly mindful of the evidence of the riders, that BENYAN (AE) was clear when it crossed JAP RAHAAL (AE). On the evidence available, it appeared that after crossing JAP RAHAAL (AE) and establishing its line, BENYAN (AE) then began to ease itself, which obliged JAP RAHAAL (AE) to alter course. However, given that it was acknowledged that BENYAN (AE) was clear of JAP RAHAAL (AE) when it shifted ground, this was not grounds to reverse the placings, and as such the objection was over-ruled and the placings remained as: 1st – BENYAN (AE) 2nd – JAP RAHAAL (AE) 3rd – ES ANOOD (AE) ES ANOOD (AE) (R Ffrench) was slow to begin. AS POLIT (AE) (J Doyle) raced erratically in the early stages and hung outwards badly making the first bend and was then retired from the race near the 1000m. Trainer Mr A Manuel was advised that AS POLIT (AE) would be required to complete a racecourse gallop to the satisfaction of the Stewards prior to being entered to race again. A post-race veterinary examination of AS POLIT (AE) revealed no abnormalities.
