The MK Jadhav-trained Fast Rain (Fast Company - Girl Of The Rain), carrying the silks of Prashant Nagar, displayed great energy despite running after a lay-off of nearly five months, to claim the Racing Officials Trophy, the feature event of the final day of the Mumbai racing season 2021-22.
Jockey NS Parmar settled Fast Rain in mid-bunch even as Hilma Klint (AK Aniket up) and Majestic Warrior (M Alam up) disputed the lead in early stages of the six-furlong contest. TS Jodha astride Majorella Blue created a flutter soon on turning for home, by grabbing the lead and opening what looked like a useful margin, as he raced towards the winning post. However, Fast Rain, set alight by NS Parmar by then, devoured ground with every stride and joined the issue with the leader in the final furlong. With 100m still to go, Fast Rain edged out Majorella Blue, and though Dali Swirl (A Prakash up) moved up well in the closing stages, he had to be content with only the runner-up berth.
