“THE ANALYSIS HAS SHOWN THE PRESENCE OF BOLDENONE”
At this meeting, Tr.C.D.Katrak was handed over a copy of the above report. He was requested to inform to the Sr.Veterinary Officer of the Club, in writing, within five days of opening the envelope that identifies the sample i.e. latest by 18th February, 2011, whether he wished the split sample of his charge AMARETTO to go to HFL Sport Science, England, C.V.R.L., Dubai or L.C.H., France,, for Confirmatory Analysis and also the name of the Witnessing Analyst, if any, failing which the Stewards shall treat the report of the Primary Laboratory as conclusive.

RE : ENQUIRY INTO THE RUNNING AND RIDING OF “ARABIAN POWER” IN RACE NO.163 – THE ALLAIRE PLATE (DIV.II) RUN ON 27TH JANUARY, 2011 :
The Stipendiary Stewards reported that they had questioned Trainer Vijay Kasbekar and Jockey T.S.Jodha in the above connection. Tr.Kasbekar stated that he had instructed the Jockey to be in 2nd or 3rd position but if the horse goes to the front then to ride from the front. He had questioned the Jockey after the race and the Jockey had explained that he had ridden out the horse to the best of his ability and had also used the whip and done his best. Jockey T.S.Jodha confirmed the instructions.
The video recording of the race was viewed and it was pointed out to Jockey T.S.Jodha that he was feeble in his riding effort in the last 100 metres and had lost a certain race, the verdict being a neck. The Jockey explained that he had concentrated on the horse in front of him i.e. SECRET TALK as he thought SECRET TALK was the horse to beat and he did not realize that EMERALD QUEEN was moving very fast on the wide outside. Trainer Vijay Kasbekar expressed his dissatisfaction with the Jockey’s riding in the last 50 metres as he felt that the Jockey had lost a certain race.
Not being satisfied with the explanation tendered by Jockey T.S.Jodha, the matter was reported to the Stewards.
The Stewards at their meeting held on Sunday, 13th February, 2010 interviewed Trainer Vijay Kasbekar and Jockey T.S.Jodha in the above connection and having heard them and viewing the video recording of the race, decided to give Jockey T.S.Jodha the benefit of the doubt in the subject case. However, he was severely cautioned and told to ride out all his mounts vigorously past the post in the future.
