BEST BUDDY (Abhay Singh) was troublesome and reluctant to be stalled inspite of several attempts, as such the horse was permitted to be withdrawn before coming under starters orders. SSC revoked.

Explanation of Jockey Akshay Kumar (PLEASANT STAR) in the presence of Trainer M. Srinivas Reddy that his mount jumped out slowly and thereafter whipped around resulting in him getting unbalanced on his mount and dislodged. The Trainer whilst confirming the above added that his charge has a habit of jumping out slowly but unfortunately, in this race, his charge whipped around was noted for future reference. The Trainer was however informed to show his charge in two Mock Races to the satisfaction of the Stipendiary Stewards before next accepting in a race. The Starting Stall Certificate of PLEASANT STAR has been revoked by the Starter.

SUGAR (Afroz Khan) winner of the race is sampled.
