An objection was lodged by Jockey R. Ajinkya rider of FONTANA placed Second by the Judge against App. Ramswarup rider of ESPERANZA placed First by the Judge stating that “in the last 50 metres  the winner shifted out, because of which I had to check my horse, had to change my course, this cost me a certain race”.

After considering the submissions made by  Jockey R. Ajinkya and Trainer Shazaan Shah, Master of App. Ramswarup, in conjunction with the Stipendiary Stewards, having viewed the Video Recording of the Race from multiple angles and acting on their own observations of the Race, the Stewards upheld the objection and revised the order of placing as under:

FONTANA                      FIRST                         SOCIAL BUTTERFLY      THIRD

ESPERANZA                  SECOND                   BIG BAY             FOURTH

In view of above, the Stewards of the Club held App. Ramswarup guilty of Careless riding on his mount ESPERANZA.

An objection was lodged by Jockey Yash Narredu rider of BIG BAY placed 4th by the judge against Jockey A. Sandesh rider of SOCIAL BUTTERFLY placed 3rd by the judge stating that “ in the last 200 metres my horse was in full momentum catching up with the leader, when SOCIAL BUTTERFLY started drifting out and in the last 100 metres completely took my ground where I had to completely stop riding, this not only cost me placing but a certain Race”.

After considering the submissions made by both the Jockeys, in conjunction with the Stipendiary Stewards, having viewed the Video Recording of the Race from multiple angles and acting on their own observations of the Race decided to overrule the objection, placings  remain unchanged as declared by the Judge.
