Starting Reports 1. INAUGURATION (M. Sonaram) lost one length.
Stewards Reports 1. Shortly after the start, OVERDOSE (S. Donohoe) was restrained from a wide draw into a rearward position. 2. SPIRITUAL WIND (B. Fayd'herbe), WILDE WORLD (N. Teeha) and CAPKUTA (D.David) overraced in the early and middle stages. 3. In the concluding stages, WILDE WORLD (N. Teeha) shifted out away from the whip. Thereafter, shortly before the finish, OVERDOSE (S. Donohoe) which was positioned behind WILDE WORLD after the aforementioned shift, had to ease when racing onto the heels. A race review was called into this incident, which was followed by an objection being lodged by Mr. A. Sewdyal, Trainer of the second placed horse (OVERDOSE) against the provisional winner, WILDE WORLD, on the grounds of interference in the concluding stages. After considering the evidence in this matter, the Objection Board overruled the objection. In arriving at this decision, the Objection Board considered that the initial shifting out away from the whip by WILDE WORLD was into open space and the running which was not secured by OVERDOSE at the time and that any subsequent easing by OVERDOSE was as a consequence of Jockey S. Donohoe initially deciding to go in, however, after anticipating that WILDE WORLD would shift in again, then electing to attempt to move out across WILDE WORLD’s heels which resulted in him becoming awkwardly placed on heels. Consequently, it could not be definitively established from the footage that but for the above incident, OVERDOSE would have finished ahead of WILDE WORLD. Therefore, the Objection Board overruled the objection and allowed the judge’s result to stand.
Jockey N. Teeha (WILDE WORLD) appeared before the Board, was shown the patrol films of the race and advised to take more care when shifting ground in races. 4. In view of the performance of CAPKUTA (D. David), the Veterinary Surgeon was requested to examine.
Racecard Changes 1. None.
Scratching 1. None.

General 1. Prior to the start of this race, there was heavy downpour. Consequently, Trainer A. Sewdyal approached the Stipendiary Steward and requested permission to remove the pacifiers on HIGH VOLTAGE (C. Goolgar). The motivation for his request was that he did not want this gelding’s eyesight to be impeded in the event that mud covered the pacifiers. The Board granted the request of Trainer A. Sewdyal.
