At the request of Jockey Nirmal Jodha, the saddle on his mount DURHAM LAD was adjusted at the start. DURHAM LAD was fractious at the starting gate. Trainer Magansingh P. Jodha has been asked to take remedial measures.
 
The Starter reported that CLOUDBURST (B. Nikhil) was reluctant to be stalled and thereafter rushed the front gates. After being loaded, it was observed that the gelding had injury on its fore head and in the process of un-stalling the bridle came off. CLOUDBURST was examined by the Club’s Sr. V.O. and found to have injured its left eye, as such, the gelding was certified unfit to race and was withdrawn before coming under the Starter’s order. Trainer Narendra Lagad has been asked to give the gelding more gate practice and show him to the satisfaction of the Starter at morning starting trials, before next accepting to race. Further, the trainer is required to obtain a fitness certificate for the gelding from the Club’s V.O. before next accepting with him to race.
 
At the start, DURHAM LAD (Nirmal Jodha, dr.2) jumped outwards and went across TOWERING STORM (C.S. Jodha, dr.3) who was slow to begin.
 
After the race, STUNNER was trotted and found to be sound.
