RAIN DANCE (S.S.Baria) jumped out slow losing about 4 lengths at the start. Trainer Adhirajsingh Jodha has been asked to give the mare more gate practice and show her to the satisfaction of the Starter at morning starting trials, before next accepting to race.
Approaching 900 metres, RED CARNATION (J. Chinoy) shifted out thereby tightening GRAPEVINE (App. K. Nazil) forcing it to be checked and drop back, due to which OLLY BOY (App.D.R.Shubham) and EBONY (App.A.S.Peter) were inconvenienced.
Passing 350 metres, ISINIT (App. M. Ayyar) leaned inwards and at the same time ADAMS BEGINNING (S. Sunil) shifted out and both were observed to have made contact.
Passing 150 metres, TOP WIZARD (App.Aniket Karande) shifted in thereby tightening GRAPEVINE (App. K. Nazil) along the rails. App. Aniket Karande has been cautioned.
In the final stages of the race, WHO’SYOURDADDY (S. Zervan) veered inwards and cut across BOHEMIAN (App. Parbat Singh) who clipped the heels of the former and stumbled thereby dislodging its rider. As a result of this incident, the rider-less BOHEMIAN shifted out and collided with OLLY BOY (App. D. R. Shubham) causing its rider to be dislodged. Jockey S.Zervan was asked to wait after the last race to meet the Stewards for dangerous riding, however, consideration of the matter was deferred.
Jockey S. Sunil (ADAMS BEGINNING) was observed to have used the whip in excess of the prescribed limit on his mount. On questioning, Jockey S. Sunil reported that his mount hung in. as such, he had used the whip as a corrective measure. As the same was borne out from the video recording of the race, no action was initiated against Jockey S.Sunil, however, Trainer Adhirajsingh Jodha has been asked to take remedial measures before next accepting to race the gelding.
After the race, RED CARNATION was observed to have a cut injury at the right fore cannon. BOHEMIAN was found to be sound in the trot.
