Trainer: M. Ramapatee Gujadhur
Soun Gujadhur, a trainer whose family owns the prestigious Gujadhur Stable—the island’s oldest and has been involved in horse racing in Mauritius for over 100 years. Soun Gujadhur took control of Mauritius’ oldest stable in 2002, after spending time helping his brothers and his late uncle – Gunness (Mica) Gujadhur. Along the way, he has been champion trainer twice, scored 23 classic wins, and has trained four champion horses – Hinterland (2004), Acuppa (2011), Kremlin Captain (2015) and Ready To Attack (2017).
The 2017 season saw him make history, as he became the first trainer in over 80 years to win all four classic races in a single season. Ready To Attack won both the Duchess Of York Cup and The Duke Of York Cup, while Enaad and Tandragee won the Maiden Cup and Barbe Cup respectively. He may have been sixth in the Trainers’ Championship in 2020, but he did manage to win two Classic races – Ehsaan (Duchess Of York Cup) and Black Cat Back (Duke Of York Cup).
