The evening programme at Mumbai Racecourse reached a lively crescendo in Race 8, the Poonawalla Stud Farms Auction Sale Stakes, a terms race for Indian horses aged three years only over 1400 metres, held on Sunday, 15 March 2026 at 07:10 PM. Delivering a confident performance, Rambo (J: Antony Raj S.) powered home for trainer Shazaan Shah, claiming the contest for owner Mr Jaydev M Mody rep. J M Livestock Pvt Ltd in an authoritative display of pace and balance. As part of the broader Mumbai race result 15 March card, the victory stood out as one of the evening’s most decisive efforts among the younger runners.
Breaking smartly from the gates, Rambo travelled comfortably within striking distance through the early furlongs while the field sorted its order. Approaching the bend, jockey Antony Raj S. angled the gelding into contention before asking for a decisive effort in the straight. Rambo responded with a smooth acceleration, stretching clear inside the final furlong to secure the prize with assurance and underline his growing potential among the three-year-old division.
Queen Of Beauties (J: Akshay Kumar, T: Aman Altaf Hussain) ran a determined race to finish second after staying on steadily through the closing stages. Invictor (J: P. Trevor, T: Altamaash A. Ahmed) completed the frame in third, keeping on gamely but unable to bridge the gap to the leading pair as the race unfolded in the home straight.
With the Poonawalla Stud Farms Auction Sale Stakes concluded, attention now shifts to the upcoming feature sprint contest, The Zavaray S. Poonawalla Sprinters’ Challenge, scheduled for 07:35 PM, where the evening’s racing action is set to intensify further.
