On a request from Trainer M. Narredu, HORIZON was examined by the Club’s Sr. V.O. at 12:00 noon, on 18th September 2026, at the stables and was found to be sore by left fore due to a nail puncture in the hoof. As such, the filly was certified unfit to race, was permitted to be withdrawn on veterinary grounds and has to be passed fit by Club’s V.O., before next accepting to race.

After being stalled, RAFAEL (App. Vishal, dr.9) was fractious. As such, Trainer Nirad Karanjawala has been asked to give his charge more gate practice and show the gelding to the satisfaction of the Starter at morning starting trials, before next accepting to race.

At the start, BELIEVE (R. Ajinkya, dr.7) jumped inwards onto FLOYD (S. J. Sunil, dr.6) at the same time RAFAEL (App. Vishal, dr.9) shifted in and went across ALEXANDRIA (Bhawani Singh dr.8) and went onto BELIEVE who further shifted in and went onto FLOYD causing the latter to brush the haunches of RIZZ (A. Sandersh, dr.5).

After the race, App. Vishal (RAFAEL) reported that he lost both his stirrups soon after the start and was unable to ride out his mount to full advantage. On subsequent examination of the saddle it was found that the right stirrup buckle had come out. The same was noted and no action has been initiated.

After the race, Jockey A. Sandesh (RIZZ) reported that his mount was running green and was inclined outwards in the straight, despite his efforts. As such, Trainer Adhirajsingh Jodha has been asked to take remedial measures, before next accepting to race.

After the race, the Veterinary Officer reported the following:

BELIEVE was observed to have an injury on its right fore fetlock.

ALEXANDRIA was examined by the Club’s Sr. V.O. and was found to be sore by right fore. As such, the mare has to be passed fit by the Club’s V.O., before next accepting to race.

The Equine Hospital reported the following:

ALEXANDRIA sustained left eye injury (sore) with ulcer.
