Missing the kick as the gates opened, Charlie found himself at a slight disadvantage at the start of the race. However, the determined colt made up for the lost ground in a sensational home stretch surge to clinch the prestigious Bangalore Turf Club Trophy, the feature event of the day. This victory marked his third career win on the 14th day of the Mumbai racing season, held at the Mahalaxmi Racecourse on Thursday.
Charlie put on a dominant display in the final stretch, crossing the finish line comfortably ahead of Dream Alliance, who had to settle for second place. Notably, the FPJ tipster had accurately predicted the top two finishers, adding further credibility to the expert forecast.
The early stages of the seven-furlong contest saw Emperor Roderic dictate the pace, establishing himself as the frontrunner with Dream Alliance in close pursuit. As the race progressed past the 1,000-meter marker, Emperor Roderic maintained his lead, appearing strong and steady at the helm.
As the field approached the final bend, the intensity heightened. Dream Alliance, the tote favourite, momentarily looked poised to stake a serious claim for victory, catching the attention of the judges. However, lurking just behind was Charlie, with jockey Bhawani Singh displaying remarkable skill and timing in the saddle.
With just 100 meters left to the finish line, Charlie unleashed a blistering turn of foot, surging past the tiring front-runners with authority. In the end, he crossed the wire with an emphatic two-and-a-half-length lead, leaving no doubt about his superiority on the day.
