QUEEN CAROLINE (S. G. Prasad dr.7) planted, failed to raise an effective gallop thereby taking no practical part in the race. In view of a similar behavior of the filly in the past, Trainer Aman Altaf Hussain has been asked to give his charge more gate practice and show the filly in a mock race to the satisfaction of the Starter, before next accepting to race.

At the start, AEON FLUX (C. Umesh, dr.5) leaned inwards onto ZEPHYR (Shrikant Kamble, dr.4) who was marginally slow to begin.

Approaching the 300 metres, NEUTRON (N. S. Parmar) shifted out and went across ARBITRAGE (App. Haridas Gore) causing the latter to be steadied. Jockey N. S. Parmar has been cautioned.

Approaching the 200 metres, ZEPHYR (Shrikant Kamble) shifted in under pressure thereby carrying NEUTRON (N. S. Parmar) inwards. After the race on questioning Jockey Shrikant Kamble stated that his mount hung-in in the straight, despite his efforts. As such, Trainer P. S. Chouhan has been asked to take remedial measures, before next accepting to race.

After the race, App. Vishal (SKY BOUND) reported that his mount was shying away from the other runners in the early part of the race. As such, Trainer M. Narredu has been asked to take remedial measures, before next accepting to race.

After the race, the Veterinary Officer reported the following:

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

NEUTRON, HIRANYAMAYEE & COMMANCHERO were trotted at the stables and found to be sound.

The Equine Hospital reported the following:

HIRANYAMAYEE sustained both eye injuries (sore) and had an ulcer on its left eye.
