Approaching 300 metres, BOTTEGA LOUIE (C. S. Jodha) shifted in thereby tightening and inconveniencing SPIRIDON (A. Imran Khan) and STAR COMRADE (Y. S. Srinath). Jockey C. S. Jodha has been cautioned.
 
Passing 200 metres, BOTTEGA LOUIE (C. S. Jodha) shifted in under pressure and made contact with CAMBRIDGE (P.Trevor) who had to be steadied.
 
An objection was lodged by Jockey P. Trevor, the rider of CAMBRIDGE (Placed Second) against BOTTEGA LOUIE (C. S. Jodha, Placed First). The reason being, passing the 300 metres, BOTEGA LOUIE started drifting in on to SPIRIDON (A. Imran Khan) who shifted in on to STAR COMRADE (Y. S. Srinath) and due to the chain reaction his mount got unbalanced. Thereafter, BOTTEGA LOUIE again came in and bumped CAMBRIDGE and took his ground due to which his horse got unbalanced and he could not ride out in the last half furlong which cost him a certain race
 
After considering the submissions made by the Jockeys concerned in conjunction with that of the Stipendiary Stewards and relying on their judgment, the Stewards upheld the objection and revised the order of placing of the above race as under:-
CAMBRIDGE                       -               FIRST;                                   BUNTING                             -               THIRD;
BOTTEGA LOUIE               -               SECOND;                             ETERNALINSPIRATION   -               FOURTH
 
After the race, BUNTING was trotted and found to be sound.
