The tenth day of the Monsoon Meeting at the Royal Calcutta Turf Club saw an exhilarating finish in Race 4, The Elistano Handicap Div I, a Class IV contest for horses rated 21-46 over 1400 metres. Run on Sunday, 28th September 2025, at 1:30 PM, the race produced a decisive winner in Dance Along (J: Yash Narredu, T: Rajesh Narredu), who clocked 1:25.524 to secure victory for owners M/s United Racing & Bloodstock Breeders Ltd & Mr Rajesh Narredu.
Breaking smartly into stride, Dance Along settled well in the early stages before launching a commanding run in the home stretch. Under a confident ride from Yash Narredu, the five-year-old mare surged ahead inside the final furlong, maintaining momentum to cross the line with authority and leave no doubt about her supremacy in the field.
The runner-up spot went to Jean Lafette (J: Vivek G., T: B Mahesh), who ran a game race but finished in 1:26.156, unable to match the winner’s late burst.
