On questioning, Jockey Akash Agarwal, admitted that his mount SAMAY BALWAN had shifted-in as he had used the whip. As such, his Jockey’s License has been suspended for 21^st September, 2014 for careless riding (Permitted to ride work / Mock race).

Passing 200 metres, FORTUNE HUNTER (Kavraj Singh) shifted ground inwards as the gelding leaned in. Trainer S.Mangalorkar has been asked to take remedial measures before next accepting to race the gelding.
