Jockey I Chisty (NO WORRY) reported that his mount was hanging inwards on entering the straight. Tr. Rutherford Alford was advised to take appropriate remedial measures.

Tr. B Mahesh and Jockey H Rahul when questioned regarding the running and riding of INTO THE STORM, the Trainer stated that his instructions to the Jockey were to take a good jump, place his mount in a suitable position wherever possible and to ride his own race. The Jockey corroborated the Trainer’s statements. The Jockey further stated that during the middle stages of the race there was a wall of horses in front of him as such he could not make a forward move and only on entering the straight he could allow his mount to make a run from the outside and rode it out to the best of his ability. The Stipendiary Stewards not being satisfied with the statements tendered by Jockey H Rahul, decided to fine him a sum of Rs. 25,000/- for the indifferent handing of his mount in the middle stages of the race between the 800 and 300 metres. Tr. B Mahesh was warned to ensure that his charges are run and ridden in such a manner that leaves no room for query.
