An objection was lodged by Jockey Malcolm Kharadi, rider of STARSONBOARD (Placed Second) against INVINCIBLE (R.Vaibhav, Placed First). The reason being, on entering the straight INVINCIBLE started to come on to him and squeezed him for room and then bumped him two to three times, due to which his filly lost her stride and did not gallop and this cost him a certain race.

After considering the submissions made by the Jockeys concerned in conjunction with that of the Stipendiary Stewards and relying on their judgment, the Stewards decided to overrule the objection.

The Stewards after the last race interviewed Jockey R.Vaibhav (INVINCIBLE) for careless riding on his mount and not being satisfied with the explanation tendered by him, decided to suspend his Jockey’s license for 29^th September, 2013 for careless riding (permitted to ride work/mock race).

Near 800 metres, CEASARINA (J.Chinoy) was inconvenienced and steadied as INTESAR (App.Prasad) shifted in. App.Prasad has been cautioned.

Near 700 metres, CEASARINA (J.Chinoy) was inconvenienced as NATIONAL PRIDE (Ishwar Pardeshi) shifted in. Jockey Ishwar Pardeshi has been cautioned.

Jockey J.E.Pereira (BALINGA) reported that his mount lugged in during the race and ran green. Trainer Sangramsinh N.Joshi has been asked to take remedial measures before next accepting to race the gelding.

After the race, INVINCIBLE and BALINGA were observed to have a cut injury at the left hind pastern, BE POSITIVE had a cut injury at the left fore cannon and NATIONAL PRIDE had a cut injury above the right commissure of mouth.  INTESAR was found to be sound.
