Clearly not many expected Jendayi to be in the Classic mould when she made a late debut in the hot month of March at the Mahalaxmi racetrack this year, as was evidenced by the generous odds of 8/1 offered on her by the bookmakers. Jendayi, however, treated her rivals with utter contempt, accelerating from last-to-first, before sailing away for a glorious 9-1/2 lengths victory. So incredible and spectacular was her debut victory that the same bookmakers could not dare to offer more than 7/10 on her though she stayed indoors for more than seven months without racing. Jendayi proved the longish lay-off had zero effect on her condition or ability when she toyed with some decent horses of her age at Pune in the General Rajendrasinhji Million.
