At the start, ITSPEARLOFRACING (Shrikant Kamble) threw its head up and lost ground due to which the Jockey could not follow the instructions which were to go to the front. At the start, TEASE ME (App.A.Sandeshdr.7) jumped out awkwardly and went on to REAL DREAM (App.Akshaydr.6). Soon after the start, GEISHA (S.Zervan) shifted in and made contact with KATRINA (C.S.Jodha) on a few occasions, who had to be checked by its rider due to lack of room since ITSPERALOFRACING (Shrikant Kamble) was racing in front of him at that stage. Since the incident was accidental, no action was initiated against any rider. Jockey Vikram Jodha (UNSTOPPABLE) has been fined Rs.2000/- for shifting in before the Red Marker and later going across TEASE ME (App.A.Sandesh), who was checked. Approaching 600 metres, TEASE ME (App.A.Sandesh) lost position when REAL DREAM (App.Akshay) shifted out due to KATRINA (C.S.Jodha) shifting out and in trying to balance his mount, TEASE ME shifted in and hampered the running of ITSPEARLOFRACING (Shrikant Kamble). Jockey C.S. Jodha has been cautioned for failing to exercise proper control over his mount. Near 300 metres, TEASE ME (App.A.Sandesh) was tightened when ITSPEARLOFRACING (Shrikant Kamble) shifted inwards. Jockey Shrikant Kamble has been reprimanded for failing to exercise proper control over his mount. Trainer H.J.Antia was questioned regarding the comparative performance of his charge SEA DIAMOND. Trainer Antia stated that this was a poor set of horses as compared to Race No.255, except for UNSTOPPABLE who had placed second in its previous run, the other horses had no form. Race No.255 was won by his own horse MYSTIC TEMPLE who clocked 59.50 seconds and MYSTIC TEMPLE is a winner of two races this season and RISING GLORY who had finished fourth in that race has also subsequently won a race. Further, NATIONAL IKON who had finished fifth in that race, placed second in Class IV subsequently whereas his horse SEA DIAMOND ran in a lower Class (0 to 19). Also, in Race No.255 it was big field of 20 horses and his horse was drawn-17. Further, his horse SEA DIAMOND had clocked 1 Minute 1.46 seconds in Race No.255 and today the horse has won in more or less same timing i.e. 1 Minute 1.09 seconds. The matter was reported to the Stewards for such action as deemed fit. The Stewards considered the above report and having viewed the video recording of both the races i.e. Race No.255 and 318, directed the Stipendiary Stewards to ask Trainer H.J.Antia to remain present after the races on 10th April, 2011 to meet them in the above connection. The Veterinary Officer in charge of the Equine Hospital reported that Trainer Vijay Kasbekar informed him that his horse REAL DREAM was showing symptoms of shivering after reaching the stables. The Veterinary Officer reached the stable to attend to the horse and found that the horse was dead before he reached the stable. After the race, CHIEF WARRIOR and GEISHA were found to be sound. GEISHA had a cut injury above the left hock and UNSTOPPABLE had a cut injury at the right hind canon.
