Touch Of Grey, the Top Class - Zacara four-year-old colt trained by Satish Narredu, humbled his rivals and posted a stylish victory in the 2800m, HPSL Indian St Leger (Gr 1), the feature event of Sunday's seven-race card. Given a faultless ride by ace jockey Suraj Narredu, Touch Of Grey made his final and decisive move as soon as he entered the homestretch, and went away for a comfortable victory over High Command (A Sandesh up) and Julius (Bhavani Singh up), with the piping-hot on-money favourite Jamari (P Trevor up) ending up a tame fourth. Bred at the Mukteshwar stud, Touch Of Grey, owned by Balam Mohla in partnership with Mrs Yashika Apana and trainer Satish Narredu, continued the current trend of outstation horses dominating the important races at Pune.
