Arjun Mangalorkar-trained Kensington (Antony up) won the Bangalore 2000 Guineas, the chief event of the races held here on Saturday (Dec 25). The winner is owned by Diamond Band Racing Syndicate Pvt. Ltd. rep. by Mr. Shiven Surendranath, Mr. Haider Soomar, Mr. Kersi H. Vachha and Mr. Sumit Mazumder.
Kensington, who jumped out smartly, settled down to race fifth or sixth till the home stretch, before Antony, who rode a well-judged race, skilfully manoeuvred his mount from outside in the straight. The colt responded well and took command in the last 150m mark and held on gamely from the fast finishing Evaldo.
