MARCH 9: Young trainer Subhag Singh hogged limelight once again when his ward Grey Test gradually improved under jockey M Kharadi to claim The Amazing Bay Trophy (1600 metres), the main event of the 31st day of Mumbai meeting held on Thursday at the Mahalakshmi.
Heavily-supported Legendary Lover and El Cid disappointed and failed even to get place on the board in the small field of eight runners. On the other hand, Run For Glory performed well and followed the winner.
Trainers MP Josha and SK Sunderji, as well as jockey C Rajendra, scored a double each when most of the events were ably annexed by the firm contenders.
