The marquee event of the afternoon—the Star Supreme Trophy—lived up to its billing as Aldgate delivered a commanding performance to take top honours in this prestigious sprint. Held as the fifth race of the day during the second fixture of the Mysore Summer Meeting 2025, the race catered to elite contenders rated 80 and above, covering a sharp 1200-meter trip with a lucrative total prize purse of Rs. 10,50,000.
Trained by Arjun Mangalorkar and ridden with confidence by S. Antony Raj, Aldgate proved too strong for his rivals, powering through the final meters to seize victory in 1:10.355 and claimed the winner’s share of Rs. 5,25,000. The gelding demonstrated class, speed, and experience, making a bold statement in one of the day’s most competitive lineups.
Finishing a close second was Iron Clad, trained by S. Santosh Rao and guided by K. Sai Kiran, who made a determined effort to chase down the leader but ultimately had to settle for the runner-up position. His performance, nonetheless, confirmed his place among the top-tier sprinters on the circuit, cloaking at 1:10.822.
Completing the frame was Czar, also trained by Arjun Mangalorkar and ridden by Aleemuddin, making it a notable double podium finish for the stable. Czar stayed on resolutely in the final stages to round out a competitive top three by cloaking at 1:11.437.
