VICTOIRE (Vikash Tamang) lost about 2 lengths at the start.

Soon after the start, LA TRAVIATA (App Yash Narredu) shifted in due to which MINISTER (App Santosh G) shied away and later LA TRAVIATA went across MINISTER. App Yash Narredu has been asked to be more careful.

Trainer Faisal A Abbas was questioned regarding the comparative performance of LA TRAVIATA in this race which the mare won as compared to her previous races during the current Mumbai Meeting. Trainer stated that in the previous run i.e. Race No 59 the mare had run suggestively and had shown form and was about 5 lengths behind the winner and gaining on whereas in the previous races she had raced in patches. This time the mare ran 400 metres more, with a gap of three weeks and it was a race for 5 years old and over horses. The previous races were viewed. Whilst noting the explanation of the Trainer, he has been reminded that he should be careful in future and not fall in a pattern which could be of concern to the Stipendiary Stewards.

After the race, VICTOIRE was found to be sore by the right fore leg. The gelding has to be passed fit by the Club’s VO before next accepting to race.

After the race, MINISTER was observed to have broken a blood vessel and is not to race for the stipulated period of 4 weeks. The gelding has to be passed fit by the Club’s VO before next accepting to race.

After the race, ALECTAR was found to be sound.
