Sultan Suleiman mocked his rivals in the Delhi Race Club Trophy, the feature event of the opening day’s card of the Pune racing season on Sunday. 

The Altaf Hussain-trained five-year-old gelding, ably ridden by jockey Nikhil Parmar, won handsomely, sparing about two lengths to a friendless Grand Accord (Bhavani Singh up), who pegged back the closely huddled troika of St Andrews, Mystic Bay & Rambunctious at the wire, to grab the runner up berth. Sultan Suleiman, the property of Dinsha & Munchi Shroff, Saleem Fazelbhoy and Mrs Aban N Chothia, clocked 1m 26.31 sec for the seven-furlong trip.
