AL KAMEEN (AE) - (J Rosales): Passing the 200 metres shifted outwards abruptly to avoid a fallen runner. ES NASIR (AE) - (A Tiar): Commenced awkwardly. Near the 200 metres had to shift inwards to avoid a fallen runner. ES SHADI (AE) - (B Pinheiro): Commenced awkwardly. MH RAHI (AE) - (M Rodrigues): Saddled had to be re-adjusted on arrival at the barrier. Stumbled on jumping. AF NESNAS (AE) - (S Hitchcott): Slow to begin and lost ground. General: Jockey Saif Al Balushi was examined by the Club’s Medical Doctor after being dislodged from its mount near the 200 metres and was taken to the Hospital for further assessment. As a result, S Al Balushi was unable to fulfil the remainder of his engagements. Apprentice A Tiar (ES NASIR (AE)) was fined AED 4000, under the provisions of ERA Rule 69B(a) for using the whip to excess, in that he used it on 18 occasions. Stewards took into account that this was A Tiar’s second breach of this Rule for the season and that he excessively exceeded the permitted limit. Further, A Tiar was fined AED 2000, under the provisions of ERA Rule 69B(c)(vii) for using his whip in consecutive strides. In assessing the penalty, Stewards took into account that this was A Tair’s second breach of this Rule for the season. Apprentice A Tiar pleaded guilty to a charge under the provisions of ERA Rule 58(iii), in that he attempted to weighing out with a safety vest that was not approved by the ERA. In assessing the penalty, Stewards noted that the safety vest was extremely light in weight, not well padded and that A Tiar tried to disguise the use of the safety vest when weighing out. A Tiar had his license to ride in races suspended for three (3) race meetings (Abu Dhabi 2 February 2023, Meydan 3 February 2023, Al Ain 4 February 2023).
