Zuccarelli obliges in Wolf 777 Indian St. Leger

Trainer Pesi Shroff’s ward Zuccarelli, ridden by P. Trevor won the Wolf 777 Indian St. Leger (Gr. 1), the stellar attraction of the Sunday’s (Sept. 25) races here. 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. Narielwala.

Trevor confidently kept his mount last throughout the race till they entered the home straight, when the son of Western Aristocrat and Circle Of Bliss easily covered the leeway and toyed with the opposition to win by a distance. Trevor rode two more winners on the day.
