After a long debate the BTC and KROA arrived at a face saving solution and the contentious 20-45 category races which the BTC opened up for outstation horses was solved. Still the category remains open for outstation horses with a rider that a minimum of three runs are needed for a outstation horse to enter in this category. The KROA and KTA were not impressed with the new change in ruling but they had no option but to agree and share a small piece of cake which they had baked before the start of the season.

Following the decision of the BTC stewards to open up 20-45 category to outstation horses the KROA has directed the members of KTA not to put entries for races to be held this weekend (June 17 & 18) until the BTC reverses it's decision But now that BTC is sticking to its guns pointing out that races in this category are going void for lack of entries and they are forced to open up in their effort to frame a bigger card. It is clear now that the ball is in the KROA court and they now need to convince the authorities and  sort out the issue.

Jockey Mukesh Kumar has been suspended by the Madras Race Club stewards from 23rd April 2023 to 22nd May 2026 for his ride on FERNET BRANCA in Race no.59 run on 30th April 2023. The Jockey was informed of his right to appeal to The Board of Appeal of MRC. Apropos the suspension of jockey K Mukesh Kumar by Madras Race Club stewards, there are 2 jockeys with identical names and one is licensed by Mysore Race Club & one by Hyderabad Race Club. Since it has created a confusion, Indiarace.com after verifying the details would like to clarify that jockey K Mukesh Kumar who has been suspended for 3 years by MRC is the one licensed by Mysore Race Club.

Sandesh has brought fresh evidence therefore the BOA sent it back. Till the RWITC Stewards examine the fresh evidence Sandesh's punishment has an automatic stay. The RWITC Stewards may not be available to hear Sandesh's case immediately, hence Sandesh will probably ride during the Bangalore Summer Season.

Jockey P. S. Chouhan’s appeal against the order of Justice Kathawala (which upheld the order of the Stewards/ Board of Appeal) was heard by the Division bench of Justice Dharmadhikari and Gautam Patel in the Mumbai High Court today. They refused to admit his plea for a stay and upheld the earlier order of a 6 month suspension. But they also recommended that both sides accept a 3 month sentence with a 3 month suspended sentence, beginning from the first day of Pune season 2019. In deference to this our counsel agreed to the same. The charge remains the same, of not permitting his horse to run on its merits. Only the sentence has been altered to avoid protracted litigation.
