Two Chinese nationals charged over theft on Scoot flight from KL to Singapore

Two Chinese nationals could face up to three years in jail, after they were arrested for theft on a Scoot flight on Jun 2. Two debit cards and S$169 in cash were allegedly stolen. Court documents said a crime committed on a Singapore-registered plane is subject to Singapore law, regardless of where the plane is flying. An off-duty police officer on the flight saw the accused acting suspiciously and alerted the authorities after disembarking from the aircraft. Mr John Tan, lead professional officer of SIT's aviation management degree programme, shared more about in-flight thefts and what airlines are doing to tackle the issue.

Look Hoo's trying to go one better

It has been three years to the day, and David Probert has hardly gone through a day without reliving the bittersweet moment of "the one that got away" in UK's most famous flat race, the Epsom Derby. On June 4, 2022, the Welsh jockey felt the adrenaline rush kicking shortly after Tattenham Corner when he began weaving a passage on his 150-1 mount Hoo Ya Mal for his former master Andrew Balding. But, when he saw daylight at the 500m, he knew deep down he would have to settle for second-best. The Sir Michael Stoute-trained Desert Crown (Richard Kingscote) was in full flight and beyond catching. Hoo Ya Mal still ran out of his skin, clipping down the deficit on the winner to 2½ lengths, while holding off a late charge from Westover to win the battle for the minors by a head. Probert, 34, has since not sat on a Derby contender again, leaving it to fate to gift him with a second chance to go one better one day, so he can realise his boyhood dream. As fate would have it, Hoo Ya Mal's owner, Ahmad Al Shaikh has turned dream-maker for the 1,600-odd race-winning jockey again. The Dubai brain behind Green Team Racing has booked Probert on the Owen Burrows-trained Al Wasl Storm, and yet again, they head in as overlooked underdogs. The three-year-old grey by Affinisea is another long shot at cricket odds, just a touch better than Hoo Ya Mal at 100-1. Probert, whose highest acclaim is an overseas Group 2 win aboard Highland Knight for Balding in the Oettingen-Rennen at Baden-Baden in Germany in 2012, is fully aware of the racing conundrum facing him in the £1.5 million (S$2.6 million) Group 1 2,400m race on June 7 (10.30pm Singapore time). Overjoyed to finally get a chance to soothe the three-year-long hurt, he is, however, sitting atop a horse bred for jumps against a host of Derby bluebloods. Yet, he knows first-hand about the romance of just being a ticket holder and even coming so close to hitting the jackpot. "A Derby win would be massive. We all grow up wanting to ride in a race like this, compete at a high level," said Probert. "Hoo Ya Mal ran a great second in the Derby. I watched that race plenty of times. "I got a nice split down the inside. Hoo Ya Mal was renowned to be quite keen, but we managed to get a nice split through the inside. "But, lo and behold, Desert Crown was still on the bridle on the outside a furlong down. "I was still delighted. This is what this is all about, isn't it? Trying to find these horses and hopefully, we found one." Like most jockeys saddled with a "no-hoper", Probert would rather look for any silver lining. "He actually has a good profile about him. He hasn't had much experience," he said. "He's done very little wrong in all the starts that he's had." Probert was aboard at the last two of Al Wasl Storm's three starts, including the last when he broke his maiden tag in a 2,400m race at Chester on May 9, but said the character-building run outweighed the win. "Chester is renowned as a good Derby trial. He seemed to handle the sharp ends and quick track very well," he said. "It feels like as if, mentally, he's grown up a lot. He was still quite raw going into Chester. "He had to do things the hard way from the front. He galloped it out relentlessly. "So, I'd imagine a mile and a half around a track like Epsom could suit him. He's a well-balanced horse and has a good mind on him." Al Wasl Storm had a first taste of the undulating Epsom course in an easy stretch-out on May 28. "It was nice to get him on the track with lovely ground this morning," said Probert. "We just took it from the mile. He never had a lead, we just allowed him to use himself, he quickened up well. "I'm delighted with the way he is in himself. Al Shaikh is a passionate fellow, and I'd just love for him to run well for him. "This is what dreams are made of. You've got to be in it to win it." manyan@
