Explanation of Jockey Gaurav Singh (CALISTA GIRL) in the presence of Trainer N. Ravinder Singh that his instructions were to sit close with the front runners which he tried to follow until entering the straight, and thereafter when asked for effort, his mount did not raise a winning gallop and also at about the 200 mtrs he lost his whip accidentally.  The Trainer while confirming the above added that due to fast initial pace and also outside draw, the Jockey could not position his charge well up with the field in the initial stages of the race. The Trainer further added that he too was baffled with the dismal performance of his charge, was noted for future reference.  The Trainer was informed that any reversal of form of his charge in future, he will be liable for severe disciplinary action.  The Jockey Gaurav Singh was however, fined Rs. 2000/- for losing the whip at the crucial juncture of the race.
