As Jockey S Mubarak, the declared rider of GIRALDA, was certified medically unfit to ride, permission was granted to Trainer Mr. Bipin V Salvi to substitute Jockey Md. Imran Ashraf to ride GIRALDA in place of the declared rider.

SILENT TRUST (S Manohar) took an awkward jump, at the start.

Jockey K Raghu, the rider of COOL SPRINGS, placed Second by the Judge, lodged an objection against Jockey R N Darshan, the rider of HIDDEN HERO, placed First by the Judge, for 'in the last 150 Metres, the Winner bumped me and took me out whereby, I had to stop riding and also, the Winner unbalanced me, which cost me a certain Race'. The Stewards held an enquiry immediately after the Race and examined the Jockeys concerned. After deliberations, they decided to overrule the objection. Subsequent to the objection being over-ruled, the Stewards decided that the deposit of Rs.2,500/- lodged by Apprentice Jockey K Raghu, towards the objection be forfeited as they considered the objection to be frivolous in nature.
