Success lives up to her name and billing in Usha Stud Golden Jubilee Bangalore St. Leger
Dr. A.C. Muthiah’s Success (Suraj Narredu up) won the Usha Stud Golden Jubilee Bangalore St. Leger, the chief event of the races held here on Sunday (July 23). The winner is trained by Vijay Singh.
Suraj, who confidently kept his gutsy filly in handy third position till the 1,400m, improved to be second till the bend before manoeuvring his mount from outside in the home stretch. Success responded well to the reminders, overtook the long time leader Pissarro near 300m, and after a ding-dong duel managed to hold off the latter for a narrow win.
