A Stewards enquiry was held into the running of the race with particular reference to the interference received by STAR OF ROSES (Imran Chisty).

An objection was lodged by Jockey Imran Chisty, the rider of STAR OF ROSES placed 4^th by the Judge against Jockey Melvyn Maseyk, the rider of AUTOCRAT placed 1^st  by the Judge on the grounds of “on entering the straight the rider of AUTOCRAT started taking me out  towards the outer rails and I had to stop riding completely”.   The Stewards after having interviewed Jockeys Imran Chisty and Melvyn Maseyk,  resolved to up-hold the objection and revised the order of placings as under .

The Stewards continued with their enquiry after the last race and interviewed Jockey Melvyn Maseyk who was charged for dangerous riding under Rule 161(i) of the RCTC Rules of Racing by the Stipendiary Stewards.  The Stewards not being satisfied with the explanations tendered by Jockey Melvyn Maseyk took into consideration his record and decided to suspend him from riding in races from 28^th August to 6^th October, 2012 (both days inclusive) for dangerous riding.  Mr. Maseyk was informed of his right to appeal.  The jockey was permitted to ride work.
