For readers tracking the Mumbai race result 30 November, this edition delivered a confident and polished winning performance from Vegatha, ridden assertively by R. Ajinkya for trainer P. S. Chouhan, stopping the clock at 1:22:661 for owners Mr Cheriyan Abraham and Mrs Smita Bajoria rep Cherie Sports Private Limited.
Breaking smartly and settling into a handy position early, Vegatha travelled like the one to beat from the halfway mark.
