On arrival at the starting gates, Jockey S. G. Prasad (UMEED) reported that his whip broke into two pieces and the same was replaced.

At the start, RIVAYAT (P. Trevor, dr.6) jumped outwards onto TEMPEST (App. Aditya Waydande, dr.7) who further shifted out thereby carrying ECHO (K. Nazil, dr.8) and MANDARIN MILLI (K. Pranil, dr.9) outwards onto WINTER SUN (S. J. Sunil, dr.10) causing the latter to be steadied.

After the race, Jockey P. Trevor (RIVAYAT) reported that approaching the 400 metres his bit had shifted to the right and he felt that the same was loose, adding that his mount had leaned inwards passing the 400 metres .As such, he had to steady his mount,

The Stipendiary Stewards examined the bit immediately after the race and found the same to be in order.

After the race, the Owner of “RIVAYAT” Mr. Sudendu Shah reported that he was not satisfied with Jockey P. Trevor’s riding. Keeping this in mind, the gelding was subject to veterinary examination and the Sr. V.O. reported that the gelding was found to be sore by left hind. As such, the gelding has to be passed fit by the Club’s V.O., before next accepting to race. Further, at the behest of the Stipendiary Stewards, an endoscopy was performed on the gelding and no abnormalities were detected. Considering the above and keeping in mind the Owner’s complaint, the Stipendiary Stewards will look into the same and a detailed report will be published shortly.

After the race, the Sr. Veterinary Officer reported the following:

UMEED was observed to have an injury on its left hind fetlock.
