Malesh Narredu on the horse Indictment. Note the white mark on it.

As a jockey, I won only one Indian Derby. That was with the horse Indictment in 1997. As trainer, I won my first Derby with the horse Be Safe two years ago. One thing common with both Indictment and Be Safe was that leading up to the Derby, both these horses gave me a sense of certainty that nothing would stop them from winning the big race. One can't describe that top-of-the-world feeling one gets after winning the Indian Derby.
