Dr Cyrus Poonawalla’s Ahead Of My Time swept past the field to bag the Betway Indian 2000 Guineas (Gr 1), the prime event of Sunday’s eight-race card. The three-year-old bay colt by Excellent Art out of Miss Danehill, trained by Dallas Todywalla, was given an incredible ride by jockey A Sandesh. The ace jockey won three more races, two of them for the same trainer (Todywalla), to emerge as Sunday’s star professional.

Son Of A Gun (CS Jodha up) set a scorching pace, clocking slightly under a minute for the first 1000m, enjoying a runaway lead over Phenom, Coeur De Lion and the favourite Supernatural (P Trevor up), with Ahead Of My Time & Sandesh racing detached last, about a dozen lengths away from the leader.
