MANILA, Philippines — Tinanggap ang paliwanag nina Rodeo Fernandez at SD Carmona nang ipatawag sila ng Board of Stewards (BoS) dahil sa mga sakay nila sa Race 1 noong Martes ng gabi.
Sakay ni class A rider Fernandez ang Go Tango habang kay class C jockey Carmona ang Janni Banni na nagkarooon ng insidente sa largahan kaya naman bahagyang naantala ang arangkada ng unang kaba-yong nabangit.
Pinagpaliwanag din si Fernandez sa takbo ng Go Tango sa unang kurbada.
“Stewards called RG Fernandez (Go Tango) to explain his ride at the start and reaching the first turn. He explained that his mount was bumped at the start by Janni Banni reasoned for him to look behind (Right side) to make sure if there was no horse coming in. Reaching the first turn, he opted to bring his mount on the outer rail since there was no ample space for his mount inside,” nakasaad sa statement ng BoS.
“Coming out from the gate, Janni Banni swerved out. When questioned Carmona explained that his mount suddenly shifted out and in fear that will clip on the heels of Go Tango. He opted to ease his mount to avoid an accident to happen,” sabi naman ng BoS kay Carmona.
Samantala, humingi ng paumanhin sa mga kareris-ta sa delayed na labas ng programa para sa araw na ito dahil nagkaproblema sa line-up.
