The intensity of the race day remained firmly intact with the running of The Chaitanya Chakram Plate at Mysore Race Club. The third race on the June 11 card featured a 1200-meter handicap for horses rated 00 to 25, drawing a competitive field and offering a total prize purse of ₹3,75,000. With sprinting ability and early positioning key to success, the race produced an exciting showdown that further amplified the momentum of the day’s racing action.
Emerging as the clear victor was GOLDEN BIRD, who ran a sharp and assertive race under jockey Prabhu Kumar M by timing at 1:18.781. Trained by Helleal Moses R., the mare settled into a prominent position early on and showed great acceleration in the final meters to pull away from her rivals and claim a confident win.
In second place came DHURANDAR, piloted by P.P. Dhebe and trained by Rakesh by timing at 1:19.339. The gelding delivered a solid effort, staying close on the heels of the leader for most of the trip, but lacked the extra spark to overtake Golden Bird in the final stretch.
BUNDELKHAND QUEEN, with Ankit Pal in the saddle and trained by Mansoor Khan, rounded off the top three by taking 1:19.424 to complete the race. The mare made a commendable move through the field to earn her spot on the podium, showing promise for future outings.
With The Chaitanya Chakram Plate wrapped up in fine fashion, the day’s momentum continues to build. Up next is The Kollegal Plate, stay tuned for further updates.
