At the request of Trainer Faisal A.Abbas, NUSRAT was examined at 0930 hours on 11/03/2021 and found to be sore from the left hind leg, as such, the mare was certified unfit to race and was withdrawn on veterinary grounds. The mare has to be passed fit by the Club’s V.O. before next accepting to race.
 
After being stalled, Jockey P.S.Chouhan (ASPIRATION) informed that the Tongue Strap on his mount was broken and was left unserviceable. As such, the gelding was taken out and the Tongue Strap was replaced with the Club’s gear.
 
SIR RAMON (K.Nazil) jumped out slow losing about 3 lengths at the start.
 
At the start, BLAZING BAY (App.A.Prakash, dr.10) jumped outwards on to VERDANDI (App.M.S.Deora, dr.11).
 
At the start, ARRECIFE (A.Imran Khan, dr.3) shifted out thereby starting a chain reaction due to which SHAPATH (C.S.Jodha), GRAND SINATRA (S.J.Sunil), FENCING (Santosh G.), ON VA DANSER (App.P.S.Kaviraj,) were inconvenienced and MASCARA (App.P.Vinod) and VERDANDI (App.M.S.Deora) had to be checked.  Jockey A.Imran Khan has been cautioned.
 
Approaching the 1300 metres,  It was observed that the left rein of Jockey P.Trevor (MICHELANGELO) broke, as such Jockey P.Trevor could not ride out his mount to complete advantage. On inspection of the reins after the race, the same was found to be relatively new, as such no action has been initiated against Jockey P.Trevor.
 
Passing the 1000 metres, it was observed that ARRECIFE (A.Imran Khan) shifted out and bumped GRAND SINATRA (S.J.Sunil).  Thereafter, GRAND SINATRA shifted in forcing ARRECIFE inwards, due to which ASPIRATION (P.S.Chouhan) who was racing along the rails, had to be steadied. On being questioned after the race, Jockey A.Imran Khan stated that he had shifted out in order to avoid clipping the front runner BLAZING BAY (App.A.Prakash) who had slowed the pace down. Jockeys A.Imran Khan and S.J.Sunil have been cautioned.
 
Approaching the 300 metres, SHAPATH (C.S.Jodha) shifted out due to which SIR RAMON (K.Nazil) who was racing on its haunches, was held up for room and had to be steadied.
 
BLAZING BAY (App.A.Prakash) was observed to have hung out from the 150 metres thereby carrying FENCING (Santosh G.) outwards. After the race, App.A.Prakash confirmed the same. Trainer Karthik Ganapathy has been asked to take remedial measures before next accepting to race the gelding.
 
After the race, ASPIRATION was trotted and found to be sound.
