On a request from Trainer Faisal A. Abbas, SILVER STRIKE was examined by the Club’s Sr. V.O. at 09.30 a.m. on 22nd August 2026 at the stables and found to be sore by left fore. As such, the rig was certified unfit to race, was permitted to be withdrawn on veterinary grounds and has to be passed fit by Club’s V.O., before next accepting to race.

FINCH (A. S. Peter, dr.5) took a fly jump at the start.

BOHEMIAN RHAPSODY (App. Vishal, dr.2) lost about a length at the start.

Soon after the start, SPOTLIGHT (A. Ashhad Asbar) veered in under urgings  and went across  BLACK THUNDER (App. Avinash Paswan), BELIEVE (R. Ajinkya), ARBITRAGE (N. S. Parmar) and ELOQUENT (Yash Narredu) and went onto DESERT CLASSIC (S. Zervan) causing the latter to be steadied. After questioning and not being satisfied, Jockey A. Ashhad Asbar has been fined Rs.3,000/- for shifting in before the red marker.

Passing the 1000 metres, due to a tightly packed field BLACK THUNDER (App. Avinash Paswan) shifted in onto ARBITRAGE (N. S. Parmar) who further shifted in and went across MILA (App. A. Omkar) causing the latter to be steadied. App Avinash Paswan has been cautioned.

Passing the 700 metres, AGEISJUSTANUMER (K. Pranil) shifted in and went across ELOQUENT (Yash Narredu) causing the latter to be checked thereafter in the final stages of the race AGEISJUSTANUMBER further shifted in thereby tightening and inconveniencing ARBITRAGE (N. S. Parmar) racing on its haunches causing the latter to be checked. After the race, Jockey K. Pranil reported that his mount hung-in throughout the race. As such, Trainer Imtiaz A. Sait has been asked to take remedial measures, before next accepting to race.

Passing the 300 metres, ELOQUENT (Yash Narredu) racing between AGEISJUSTANUMBER (K. Pranil) and BELIEVE (R. Ajinkya) was observed to be held up for room and had to be steadied.

After the race, the Jockeys reported the following:

Jockey R Ajinkya (BELIEVE) reported that his mount hung-in in the straight, despite his efforts. As such, Trainer S. Waheed has been asked to take remedial measures, before next accepting to race.

Jockey N. S. Parmar (ARBITRAGE) reported that due to a tightly packed field he was denied sufficient room and thereby could not ride out his mount to complete advantage.

After the race, the Veterinary Officer reported the following:

MILA was observed to have an injury on its left fore coronet.

The Equine Hospital reported the following:

HOWLIN WOLF sustained both eye injuries, right eye (sore) and mild ulcer in left eye.
