The third race of the afternoon at Mysore Race Club—the Balamuri Plate—delivered another exciting contest as D Admiral produced a determined performance to take top honours in this Class V handicap for horses rated 00 to 25. The 1400-meter race, run at 3:00 PM, featured a modest purse of Rs. 3,75,000, with the winner earning Rs. 1,87,500.
Trained by K. Aditya and expertly ridden by Vinod Shinde, D Admiral timed his run to perfection and surged clear in the closing stages to clock 1:26.443, a solid effort that underlined both the horse’s improving form and the rider’s strategic execution. This win added a crucial point of momentum to the yard’s summer campaign.
Close on his heels was Against All Odds, piloted by Faiz and trained by Feroz M. Khan, timed at 1:26.667 who looked a serious threat in the final meters but couldn’t quite bridge the gap, settling for a gallant second.
Warrior Woman, partnered by P.P. Dhebe and trained by Rakesh, rounded out the top three with a steady performance by taking 1:26.870. Though she lacked the late burst of speed, her placing signalled consistent progress and adds her name to the list of ones to watch in the season ahead.
As the summer afternoon at Mysore unfolds with promising young contenders and tactical brilliance, all eyes now turn to The Prince Regent Plate, the fourth race of the day scheduled for 3:30 PM. Stay connected for continuing coverage of the Mysore Summer Meeting 2025.
