DIVINE RETRIBUTION (V R Jagdeesh) ran detached from the field. Trainer Mr. C V G K Kishore was informed to ensure better performance of his charge in future.

Jockey Anil Baandal, the rider of PRECIOUS ASSET, placed Second by the Judge, lodged an objection against Jockey Suraj Narredu, the rider of KINGOFTHEWORLD, placed First by the Judge, for 'as I was making my move, in the last 100 Metres, the Winner saw me and shifted 'in', blocking my path. In the last 50 Metres, he came 'in' further and blocked me completely and that cost me the race'. The Stewards held an enquiry immediately after the Race and examined Jockeys Anil Baandal and Suraj Narredu. After deliberations, they decided to overrule the objection.

KINGOFTHEWORLD (Suraj Narredu) sustained bleeding cut on right hind outer cannon.
