In the process of being stalled, MATILDA (Dashrath Singh) reared up and flipped back. The filly was examined by the Club’s VO and certified unfit to race, as such she was withdrawn before coming under the Starter’s Order. Considering this and her fractious behavior in its previous starts during the current Pune Meeting, Trainer Faisal A.Abbas has been asked to give the filly more Gate practice and show her to the satisfaction of the Starter at morning starting trials, before next accepting to race.

Near 800 metres, RAIN FOREST (A.Sandesh) shifted in and went across ASHWA PRAHAR (Ishwar Pardeshi) who had to be checked and in the process clipped the heels of the former. Jockey A.Sandesh has been fined Rs. 3000/- for failing to exercise proper control over his mount.

Jockey D.S.Rathore (ALWAYS SMILE) reported that he fumbled with his whip twice in the straight. He has been asked to be more careful in future.

Trainer Altamaash A.Ahmed and Jockey Ladjadj Stephane were questioned with regard to the running and riding of SUKI SUKI. The Trainer explained that the filly was fractious in its Stall and had hurt her mouth. He added that the filly had come to him recently and this was her first run under his charge. He added that the filly had won a race in July 2011 with Trainer Faisal A.Abbas. When questioned, Jockey Ladjadj Stephane said that he had done his best. In view of the Sr.V.O. report that the filly had a gum injury and upper tooth broken, no action was initiated in the matter.

After the race, SUKI SUKI was found to be sound, having a gum injury & upper tooth broken. JUSTERINI had a cut injury at the right hind pastern.
