Zuccarelli trained by Pesi Shroff with P Trevor up wins The Kingfisher Ultra Indian Derby Gr 1 2022 at the Royal Western India Turf Club
Trainer Pesi Shroff's second favourite ward Zuccarelli, piloted by P. Trevor won the Kingfisher Ultra Indian Derby (Gr. 1), the grand attraction of the races here on Sunday (Feb. 6).
The winner is owned by Mr. K.N. Dhunjibhoy and Mr. Z.K. Dhunjibhoy rep. Five Stars Shipping Co. Pvt. Ltd, Mr. D.R. Thacker rep. DT Racing & Breeders LLP, M/s. Mukul Sonawala & A.S. Nareilwala. Trainer P. Shroff saddled three winners on the day.
Trevor comfortably kept this son of Western Aristocrat-Circle Of Bliss bred at Nanoli Stud in eighth position behind the stablemate universal choice Miracle throughout the race till the bend. As the field entered the home stretch Zuccarelli cruised ahead to take charge in the straight and staved off a strong challenge from A Star Is Born to win this prestigious event by a fair margin. Jockey Trevor tasted the first Indian Derby success of his career. The disappointment of the day was Miracle, when asked by Chouhan into the straight, appeared to run out of gas and ended fourth.
