MUMBAI, JAN 20: Congratulations, owned by PK Mehra and saddled by southern-based trainer S Padmanabhan, flew from 300 metres from the finish line under the guidance of jockey R Hughes to claim The Dashmesh And Hargobind Stud Million 1400, the main event of the 21st day of Mumbai Meeting run on Wednesday at Mahalakshmi.
Untold Story was an impressive second, ahead of Star Fortune and pace setter Australia. Favourite Placid was never observed in fighting mood and failed even to get in the frame.
Only four public choice obliged in the lengthy card of ten events. The 70% investment of the second jackpot pool remained intact so was the case with the second place pot. Jockeys Aslam Kader, NG McCullagh scored a double each.
