MAS122 return to Sydney today

This flight appears to have departed for KL, done a circuit off the coast and returned to Sydney - actually it appears to have done a go around in the process of returning as it passed my house twice on short finals to 16R. Any info on the circumstances?

Not sure why it intially returned Steve but the go around was due to ATC noticing an issue with landing gear.

THanks Andrew. The aircraft in question was 9M-MRA

Looking at a fellow photographer's pictures it looked like the front right nose gear door had failed.
