DIAMOND ZIP (Akash Agarwal) was reluctant to be stalled. Trainer Subhag Singh has been asked to give the mare more gate practice and show her to the satisfaction of the Starter at morning starting trials, before next accepting to race.

DOUBLE DIAMOND (F.Irani, dr.2), after an awkward jump, shifted out and went on to SERENA (B.Prakash, dr.3), who went on to QUID PRO QUO (Neeraj Rawal, dr.4), who in turn hampered MOUNTAIN SONG (A.Ashhad Asbar, dr.5). 

At the start, STAYING ALIVE (Nirmal Jodha) jumped out awkwardly.

Near 1200 metres, GRAND MARCH (Ikram Khan) was steadied as the gelding raced keen at that stage.

Approaching 400 metres, DREAM WEAVER (A.Sandesh) drifted out due to the bend and then shifted in on to QUID PRO QUO (Neeraj Rawal) and ricocheted on to RELIC HUNTER (P.Kamlesh) and lost position. As DREAM WEAVER lost position, SERENA (B.Prakash) who was following, was forced to shift out and in doing so, caused MOUNTAIN SONG (A.Ashhad Asbar), DIAMOND ZIP (Akash Agarwal) and ANGELS TERN (B.Sreekanth) to travel wide.

Approaching 400 metres, DOUBLE DIAMOND (F.Irani) was tightened and steadied while racing on the inside of QUID PRO QUO (Neeraj Rawal).

After the race FIREBACK was observed to have a cut injury at the right fore bulb of heel. STAYING ALIVE, ANGELS TERN, DREAM WEAVER & MOUNTAIN SONG were found to be sound.
