Two objections were lodged in this race. The first objection was lodged by Jockey P.Trevor, rider of STRATEGY (Placed Fourth) against DREAMS R MINE (Kavraj Singh, Placed Second) and BOURBON STREET (S.Mosin, placed Third). The reason being, at about 350 metres, DREAMS R MINE (Kavraj Singh) came in sharply and bumped him out of the race whereby he lost his balance totally, and simultaneously BOURBON STREET (S.Mosin) shifted out and squeezed him whereby he was unbalanced and this cost him a certain second place.
The second objection was lodged by Mr.Sanjay Kolse, Trainer of BOURBON STREET (S.Mosin, Placed Third) against DREAMS R MINE (Kavraj Singh, Placed Second). The reason being, between the 400 and 300 metres, DREAMS R MINE (Kavraj Singh) came on to BOURBON STREET whereby Jockey S.Mosin was unbalanced for a few strides and could not ride out the horse or else he could have finished closer to the winner.
After considering the submissions made by the Jockeys concerned as also Trainer Sanjay Kolse in conjunction with that of the Stipendiary Stewards and relying on their judgment, the Stewards decided to overrule the objection lodged by Mr. Sanjay Kolse, the Trainer of BOURBON STREET (S.Mosin, Placed Third) against DREAMS R MINE(Kavraj Singh, Placed Second). The Objection lodged by Jockey P.Trevor, the rider of STRATEGY (Placed Fourth) against DREAMS R MINE (Kavraj Singh, Placed Second) and BOURBON STREET (S.Mosin, Placed Third) was upheld and the order of placing revised as under :-
MAGIC STAR - FIRST; DREAMS R MINE - THIRD;
STRATEGY - SECOND; BOURBON STREET - FOURTH
