A. Perdrau
Trainer: M. Alain Perdrau
Alain Perdrau holds the record for being the longest serving trainer at Champ de Mars. He burst onto the scene in 1984 with the ex-Ladegourdie stable and became champion trainer that same season.
He may not have won another championship since, but he has continued to excel with his consistency. Horses like classic winners Botanique and World Focus, as well as the prolific Sentinal and Nordic Warrior, have represented him with flying colours.
With a much larger string of horses for the 2021 season, he will look to make himself heard.

Record (as at 31st December 2020) 667 wins and 1576 places for 5376 nominations with gains amounting to Rs 92,486,875
