Born Queen puts on a regal display in South India Derby Stakes

Satish Narredu’s ward Born Queen (Suraj Narredu up) won the South India Derby Stakes, the star attraction of the season here on Thursday (Jan. 14), The winner is owned by United Racing & Bloodstock Breeders Limited and bred at S. Pathy’s Sans Craintes Stud Farm. Suraj, who rode confidently, kept the unbeaten Born Queen third and fourth till the home stretch. He started manoeuvring his mount in the straight and the filly responded tremendously to few reminders on the 300m and took over from long-time leader Sporting Memories to not only register her fifth win in a row but also complete a Classic hat-trick.
