NOTICE
The Stewards of the Club note with grave concern that there have been increasing instances of family / friends going to lead horses without permission or even a word to the Stewards / Officials. The Stewards have decided that only the Owners and their immediate family Members such as husband / wife, sons, daughters, grandsons, granddaughters, son-in-law and daughter-in-law would be permitted to lead horses without prior permission. For all other persons, permission will have to be taken from Stewards / Officials in advance clearly mentioning of their relationship to the Owner/s. Trainers relatives are not permitted to lead in horse except with prior permission.
The Stewards also note with concern that there has been an increasing tendency of Owners, Trainers and friends to shake hands with the winning jockey on the track / paddock / weighing room before the jockey weighs in. This is against the Rules of Racing and it is therefore advised that no person should touch the jockey before he weighs in. In case it is not observed the horse may be liable for disqualification as provided in the Rules.
All concerned are advised to strictly adhere to the directions of the Stewards.
