BASMAH (FR) - (F Veron): Commenced to lay out from the 1000 metres and passing the 900 metres shifted out, hampering another runner. AF AL BAHER (AE) - (R Mullen): Near the 600 metres had to be eased when tightened for room. JEEMI (FR) - (A Fresu): Passing the 900 metres had to be restrained when hampered by another runner. ARJAN (FR) - (J Rosales): Slow to begin. ASRAA MIN AL TALQA (GB) - (A M Al Balushi): When questioned regarding the improved performance of the horse, Trainer Mr H Alalawi advised that ASRAA MIN AL TALQA (GB) was having its first start in his stable, however after arriving in his yard had to be treated for stomach ulcers and in his opinion the horse is ideally suited racing over further distances than it has at its most recent starts. MA'AALY (AE) - (R Curatolo): Commenced awkwardly and lost ground. General: Jockey A M Al Balushi (ASRAA MIN AL TALQA (GB)) was fined AED 1000 under the provisions of ERA Rule 69B(a) for using the whip to excess, in that he used it on 13 occasions. Stewards took into account that this was A M Al Balushi’s first breach of the Rule this season and that he won the race. Jockey R Curatolo (MA’AALY (AE)) was advised to exercise more care when permitting his mount to shift ground, in that passing the 900 metres he shifted inwards when insufficiency clear of AF AL BAHER (AE)(R Mullen), which had to be eased when tightened for room.
