An objection was lodged by Jockey A.Ashhad Asbar, rider of EMERALD VALLEY (Placed Second) against SEA TREASURE (Dashrath Singh, Placed First). The reason being, after jump out, SEA TREASURE shifted in whereby his horse lost balance and lost stride and from second position, dropped to the last position. Thereafter, at the two furlong marker, when his horse was full of running, SEA TREASURE again shifted in and hampered his opening whereby he had to pull his horse out and this cost him a certain 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.

Near 300 metres, NATIONAL GLORY (App.Nikhil Bhujbal) was ridden in check due to lack of room on the inside of STARLIGHT MAGIC (A.Sandesh).
