RACE 1, SATURDAY

Jockey Jake Bayliss pleaded guilty to careless riding on Fireworks.
Passing the 200m mark, he made insufficient effort to prevent his mount from shifting in, when insufficiently clear of Perfect. This contributed to that runner being severely checked.
Bayliss was suspended for one Singapore race day. He will miss this Saturday's meeting.

Jockey Marc Lerner pleaded guilty to careless riding on Prodigal and was suspended for one Singapore race day.
He will also be out of action this Saturday.

Jockey Danny Beasley pleaded guilty to careless riding on Surrey Hills and also picked up a one-day suspension.
But, as he has been engaged to ride this Saturday, he will miss the June 4 meeting.
