After travelling a mile-and-a-quarter of the Gr 3, Idar Gold Trophy (2400m), the feature event of Saturday`s seven-race card, jockey Vivek on Jamari and Sandesh astride Evaldo got engaged in a fierce, neck-and-neck battle for the final two furlongs. At the post, the final verdict was merely half a length which Evaldo spared to Jamari. Winner Evaldo was trained by Prasanna Kumar.
In the opening race of the day, the division II of the Col KM Bharucha Memorial Trophy, jockey Akshay Kumar rode the Aman Hussain-trained four-year-old Mazal to victory, much to the delight of the followers of money who hammered her price from 11/10 to 7/10. In the very next race another hot favourite warmed their hearts--and pockets--as trainer B Prithviraj, who shifted base to western India from Bangalore--opened his account with a class I race, the Macchupicchu Trophy when jockey S Saqlain rode Madam Rich to victory.
