After being stalled, ESKIMO (C.Ruzaan) started lashing out at the rear gate. The colt was taken out and examined by the Club’s V.O. and found to have suffered bleeding injury just below the left stifle and had an abrasion below right stifle. Also, the right hind plate had become loose and about to come off. As such, ESKIMO was certified unfit to race and hence withdrawn before coming under the Starter’s Order. The Trainer is required to obtain a fitness certificate for the horse from the Club’s V.O. before next accepting to race. Further, Trainer P.Shroff has been asked to give the colt more gate practice and show him to the satisfaction of the Starter at morning starting trials, before next accepting to race.

ASAHI (A.Sandesh) was restless in the stall, not allowing the rider to settle. Trainer Rehanullah Khan has been asked to give the gelding more gate practice and show him to the satisfaction of the Starter at morning starting trials, before next accepting to race.

BLUE WONDER (C.Rajendra) lugged out passing 400 metres and continued to do so for the remaining part of the race. Trainer Imiaz A.Sait has been asked to take remedial measures before next accepting to race the gelding.
