Race number six on the card, The P. D. Avasia Trophy Division I, a Class IV contest for Indian horses rated 20 to 46, provided a sharp 1200-metre spectacle at the Royal Western India Turf Club, Mumbai, on Sunday, 21 December 2025, with the field going to post at 3:15 PM. In a performance that stood out on the Mumbai race result 21 December card, Mriga delivered with authority, scoring for owner Mr Prakash Kishan Srivastava under a confident ride from A. S. Peter, and stopping the clock at 1:10.708.
From the break, the pace was genuine as the runners fanned out across the straight. Mriga was settled smartly, travelling comfortably before being asked to quicken inside the final furlong. Once angled out, the filly responded instantly, stretching clear with a telling burst to assert his superiority and seal the verdict decisively for trainer B. Prithviraj.
Heaven’s Rhythm finished on for second, with Yash Narredu partnering the M. Narredu-trained runner to a creditable effort, while El Moran, ridden by Antony Raj S. and trained by Narendra Lagad, stayed on to claim third, rounding out the placings in a competitive sprint.
With this division settled and the crowd buzzing, attention now turns to the next highlight on the programme — The Gracias Saldanha Memorial Million, scheduled for 3:45 PM, a race expected to raise the stakes as the Mumbai meeting builds toward its feature moments.
