On a request from Trainer Deepesh Narredu, SAFFRON GLOW was examined by the Club’s Sr. V.O. at 10:00 a.m. on 2nd October 2026, at the stables and was found to be sore by right hind. As such, the filly was certified unfit to race, permitted to be withdrawn on veterinary grounds and has to be passed fit by Club’s V.O., before next accepting to race.

In the process of stalling, the right stirrup iron used on Jockey Neeraj Rawal’s (SNOW GIRL) saddle was observed to have broken, subsequently, the filly was un-stalled and the stirrup iron was replaced causing a marginal delay in the start of the race.

At the start, MYSTICA (Antony Raj S., dr.1) jumped outwards at the same time HIRANYAMAYEE (Dashrath Singh, dr.3) leaned in thereby tightening LATIOS (Akshay Kumar, dr.2) drawn between them causing the latter to be checked.

Soon after the start HIRANYAMAYEE ( Dashrath Singh ) shifted in and went across LATIOS (Akshay Kumar) causing the latter to go onto the railing. After the race, Jockey Dashrath Singh (HIRANYAMAYEE) reported that his mount hung-in throughout the race despite his efforts and thereafter trailed the field. Trainer Sangramsinh N. Joshi has been asked to take remedial measures before next accepting to race and asked to ensure that his charge puts up a reasonable performance in the future. 

After the race, Jockey Akshay Kumar (LATIOS) reported that his mount was shying away from the other runners in the early part of the race. As such, Trainer Aman Altaf Hussain has been asked to take remedial measures, before next accepting to race.

After the race, the Sr. V. O. reported the following :-

CAVIAR QUEEN was trotted and found to be sound.

SNOW GIRL was observed to have lost its left hind shoe.

On a request from Trainer P. S. Chouhan an endoscopy was performed on AZAADI and was found to have upper respiratory tract infection.
