PUNE, Aug 2: Ancient Warrior fluently won The Akkasaheb Maharaj Trophy, 1200m, the star attraction of the fourth day of Pune meeting held on Sunday. Code Of Honour led from the start but surrendered ground in the last 200 metres. He slowed down so much that Master Of The Rolls surged ahead to claim the second position in the photo finish.
While jockey C. Rajendra added 3 points to his winning tally trainer N. Raghunath ended the day with a double.
