Race 10 (454) - 9 March 2008 Sha Tin Race Meeting

6 March 2008

At declaration time Apprentice K T Yeung was declared as the rider of SUNNY KING in the Chai Wan Handicap. Subsequently E Saint-Martin contacted the Stewards advising that it was his belief that he had been formally engaged to ride SUNNY KING in this race and requested the Stewards to adjudicate over his claim that he should be permitted to fulfil the engagement on SUNNY KING.

The Stewards this afternoon interviewed E Saint-Martin and Mr F C Lor, assistant trainer to Mr J Moore, trainer of SUNNY KING. As Mr Moore is currently in Dubai, evidence was taken from him by telephone.

After having considered the evidence before them, the Stewards formed the opinion that E Saint-Martin had not properly committed to ride SUNNY KING in this race prior to Apprentice Yeung being engaged to ride the horse and accordingly ruled that Apprentice Yeung fulfil the riding engagement.
