Corfe Castle sprints to glory in record time
Corfe Castle, trained by Leo D’ Silva and ridden by Sandesh, proved that there can never be any certainties in the Sport of Kings.
The world, its neighbour and yours truly for that matter went on record to say the Bangalore Turf Club Sprinters’ Cup was a two-way contest between the Bengaluru challenger Multifaceted and the Mumbai champion Iron Age.
The rest of the field it was felt were there for the minor placings.
At the end of a record-breaking run, it was Corfe Castle which had the better of Mauritania with Intense Stylist and Coorg Regiment ending up third and fourth.
The fancied duo missed the board.
Bred at the Poonawalla Group Of Farms, Corfe Castle, who is by Excellent Art out of Miss Danehill, is a full brother to Sprint Queen Ruffina who had won this very race two years in a row and now Miss Danehill has become the first broodmare to produce three Sprinters’ Cup winners in successive years.
The M.A.M. Ramaswamy Stayers’ Cup was won in emphatic fashion by the Usha Bred Ambrosio(Multidimensional-Ambrosia).
The 5-year-old bay gelding, trained by S.A. Attollahi, was given a great ride by jockey Suraj Narredu.
As the curtain came down on the first day of the showpiece of Indian Racing, the Mysore Race Club proved, that given the opportunity, they are second to none.
