At the 450M, GOOD STAR which was angled out for a clear run rolled in onto the heels of ERUPTION upon straightening for home. Thereafter, at the 350M, GOOD STAR was again angled out for a clear run, however, again laid in under pressure resulting in this gelding being positioned on the heels of ERUPTION. Simultaneously, at the 350M, LUCKY MAGIC which was hanging in, in the straight, shifted in to race in close proximity with ERUPTION. Subsequently, at the 300M, GOOD STAR had to ease and shifted out of the heels of the tiring ERUPTION and LUCKY MAGIC in order to obtain a clear run.

A race review was called into this incident, which was followed by an objection being lodged by Trainer T Mahadi, the Trainer of the second placed horse, GOOD STAR (S Uzair) against the winner, LUCKY MAGIC (R Shafiq) on the grounds of interference at the 300M.

After considering the evidence in this matter, the Board overruled the objection as it was satisfied that with or without the above incident, GOOD STAR would not have finished ahead of LUCKY MAGIC.

At this decision, the distance between the horses at the finish (neck), the distance at which the alleged interference occurred, the movements of GOOD STAR and that, it could not be clearly established where GOOD STAR had secured the racing between LUCKY MAGIC and ERUPTION and that the prejudice, if any, caused to GOOD STAR by LUCKY MAGIC changed the result of the race.
