| Tamang on On The Bit | Calcutta:
Punters were, once again, at the receiving end for the third race-meeting in succession.
As a result of the upsets wins, the jackpot pool paid a hefty dividend of Rs 40,349
on each of the two winning tickets. The biggest
upset was brought about by the victory of a friendless Regal Rocket, ridden by
apprentice Vinay Jaiswal who, incidentally, recorded the maiden win of his career.
The La Gitana Cup, on the other hand saw a 6-1 shot On The Bit, a John Stephens-trainee,
winning in the hands of jockey S. Tamang. RESULTS 1.
