The racing afternoon at Pune Racecourse gained momentum with Race 4 – The Pune Cantonment Board Trophy (Div II), a Class IV contest for Indian horses rated 20 to 46 (0 to 19 eligible), run over 1200 metres at 2:30 PM on Sunday, 2nd November 2025, during the Pune Meeting 2025 – Eleventh Day at the Royal Western India Turf Club. In an impressive display of early speed and control, Believe (Jockey: K. Pranil) produced a confident performance to secure victory for trainer S. Waheed, stopping the clock at 1:09:232. The win came in the colours of owner Mr. Ketan S. Wakkar, marking a memorable success on the day’s undercard. For fans following the Pune race Result November 2, this victory stood out as one of the afternoon’s sharpest displays of sprinting authority.
Breaking sharply from the gates, Believe immediately pushed forward to dictate the pace along the rails. Maintaining a smooth rhythm under a controlled ride, the Waheed-trained gelding travelled comfortably through the early stages before being asked to quicken at the top of the straight. Once in the clear, Believe responded with a decisive burst inside the final furlong, holding firm to repel pressure from the chasing pack.
Majestic Warrior (Jockey: Avinash Paswan, Trainer: Narendra Lagad) mounted a late bid but had to settle for second, stopping the clocks at 1:09:636, while Flashman (Jockey: A. Omkar, Trainer: Bezan Chenoy) finished third in 1:09:791 after producing a determined run down the outer rail. The top three runners pulled significantly clear of the field in a thrilling conclusion over six furlongs.
With Believe’s commanding victory setting the tone early in the program, attention now shifts to the headline feature later in the afternoon — the B Prakash Salver, expected to showcase a competitive lineup of in-form sprinters.
