Jockey Sahanawaz, the rider of MAKE MY DAY was fined Rs. 1,000/- for suddenly shifting out passing 800 Metres whereby CAPOTE (P. Trevor) moving from behind had to be checked its rider; further ICE MINT (S. Mallikarjun) running behind the latter also had to be checked by its rider.

At the behest of the Stipendiary Stewards, the Stewards held an enquiry immediately after the race into the running of the race with particular reference to the very severe interference caused by Jockey M. Noornabi, the rider of NESSIE (placed 2nd) to LAD FURY (Anjar Alam) on the outside which apart from interfering with MAKE MY DAY (Sahanawaz) on the far side got squeezed in between NESSIE (M. Noornabi) and MAKE MY DAY (Sahanawaz) and struck NESSIE (M Noornabi) and fell dislodging its rider. EQUANIMITY (Arshad Alam), which was running directly behind, jumped over the prostrated horse (LAD FURY) whereby its rider got totally unbalanced on his mount approaching the 300 Metres. The Stewards examined the Jockeys concerned. After deliberations, they decided to disqualify NESSIE (M. Noornabi) from the above race and revised the order of placings as under:

KLIPSPRINGER I
CAPOTE II
AFFIRMATIVE III
MAKE MY DAY IV
ROMANCE IN THE AIR V
