Amit) forcing him outwards. After the race, Jockey P. Trevor (HURACAN) reported that upon passing 400 metres, in an attempt to change his whip hand, his reins had slipped out of his hands. The same was borne out from the CCTV footage of the race and Jockey P. Trevor has been asked to be more careful in the future. After the race, Jockey N. S. Parmar (ROYCE) reported that his mount hung out in the initial stages of the race. Trainer A. M. Jadhav has been asked to take remedial measures before next accepting to race the gelding. An objection was lodged by App. S. A. Amit, the rider of OSCILLATION (Placed Third) against STAR ACE (A. Sandesh, Placed Second). The reason being, near the first bend, STAR ACE (A. Sandesh) who was racing along the rails, shifted out and bumped his horse severely whereby he lost considerable ground and thereafter, from the last position his horse covered ground in the straight and in his opinion the above incident had cost him the race. After considering the submissions made by the Jockeys concerned, in conjunction with that of the Stipendiary Stewards and relying on their judgment, the Stewards decided to over-rule the objection.
