HISTORIC was very difficult to load.  Tr. Vikash Jaiswal was advised not to accept with his charge until shown to the satisfaction of the Starter in a barrier trial.

CAP FERRAT was very fractious while being stalled and inside its stall.

An enquiry was held  into the running of the race, with particular reference to CAP FERRAT jumping out riderless from the gates. At the conclusion of the enquiry it was established that  a fair start had not been given to Horse No. 4 – CAP FERRAT wherein Jockey J H Arul was not seated on the filly when the start was effected as she was being fractious inside the gates.  The Stewards decided to declare CAP FERRAT a non- starter after taking into consideration the evidence tendered by Jockey J H Arul, the Starter and the Stipendiary Steward.
