At the request of Trainer ch m ABBERELLA (Dhanu S Deora) was examined by the Veterinary Officer at approximately 2.00 P.M. and found to have a painful swelling on right hock. Under the circumstances the mare was permitted to be withdrawn. Tr. Shafiq Khan was informed not to accept with his charge until certified fit by the Veterinary Officer.
 

ch m EASTERN FLAME (App R S Bhati) which was extremely fractious reared up, fell in its stall, injuring itself and the rider. Under the circumstances the mare was permitted to be withdrawn before coming under Starter’s orders. The Starting Stall Certificate has been revoked by the Starter.

UNCROWNED KING (Md Imran) and FABIENNE (B Mahesh) were slow to begin.

An enquiry was held immediately after the running of the race with particular reference to the fall of FABIOLA (Nikhil Naidu) approaching the distance post. After due enquiry the ‘All Clear’ was given. In continuation with the enquiry the Stipendiary Stewards reported Jockey A Sandesh, the rider of THE LAST JUDGEMENT to the Stewards for careless riding in that while placing his mount under pressure he allowed it to drift ‘outwards’ into the path of FABIOLA (Nikhil Naidu) which ran into the heels of the former and fell. The Stewards interviewed Jockey A Sandesh and after viewing the CCTV replay of the race, found Jockey A Sandesh guilty of careless riding (Rule 161(i) ) and decided to suspend him from riding in races on 13th & 16th March, 2019 and the first two race days of the Calcutta Monsoon Meeting 2019, the dates of which will be notified later.
