An objection was lodged by Jockey P.Trevor, rider of FANTASTIC KINGDOM (Placed Fourth) against DANCING MONEY (App.Sandeep Jadhav, Placed Third). The reason being, near 900 metres, DANCING MONEY, who was racing on his inside, shifted out and tightened him, due to which he lost his position and had to come from the wide outside, which cost him the third place. 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 and forfeit the deposit. Passing 600 metres, FANTASTIC KINGDOM (P.Trevor) became unbalanced. While straightening for home, FANTASTIC KINGDOM (P.Trevor) shifted out to progress in the race and carried STRIKING GIRL (Shrikant Kamble) outwards and later went across the latter and also carried MALADA SUN (Vkram Jodha) outwards. Jockey P.Trevor has been fined Rs.2000/- for failing to exercise proper control over his mount. After the race, SECRETIVE and FANTASTIC KINGDOM were observed to have broken a blood vessel. Also, SECRETIVE was observed to have lost its right hind plate and FANTASTIC KINGDOM had a cut injury at the right fore cannon.
