6. Jockey S Rama, when given the opportunity to explain his ride in the early part of the race since he was asked to lead, if possible, commented that after his horse shifted in after the start, he had to straighten his horse after which he brushed up for a few strides but could not lead. Since, he did not want to cut pace with the front runners, he accepted his position and rode from there. The Stewards were satisfied with his explanations.

Stewards’ Reports
1. KATZENTHAL (N Marday) hesitated and was slowly away. KATZENTHAL became increasingly detached from the rest of the field. The Horse has been suspended for seven days and is required to pass barrier trials to the satisfaction of the Stewards before racing again. 
2. A review of an incident in the straight was held in this race, the reason being that BRABANZIO (A L Da Silva) received interference near the 150 metres as GO JEWEL (G D Aucharuz) shifted in, under the use of whip.  
3. After having viewed the incident and interviewed the Jockeys, the Stewards were satisfied that there was not enough gap on the inside of GO JEWEL (G D Aucharuz) for BRABANZIO (A L Da Silva) to go through and the interference that BRABANZIO received was due to its Rider’s own doing. Therefore, the Stewards decided to issue a reprimand to Jockey G D Aucharaz for shifting inwards.
4. After the interference near 150m, BRABANZIO (A L Da Silva) did not have a clear run for a few strides while racing behind GO JEWEL (GD Aucharuz) and CAPTAIN GARETT (J De Souza).
