Trainer: M. S Nagadoo

Praveen Nagadoo became the third ex-jockey to obtain a Trainer's License in Mauritius, in 2018, following in the footsteps of Simon Jones and Preetam Daby.

As a jockey, he rode 60 winners, including 3 classic races (Bold Statement - 1994 Barbe Cup and 1994 Duke Of York Cup; and River Run - 1996 Maiden Cup), and he will look to achieve great things as a trainer.

Even if 2018 was his first year as a trainer, he had gathered a lot of experience since he retired from riding in 2002. He was ''Stable Supervisor'' to the Fok, Gujadhur and Jean-Michel Henry stables, before becoming assistant-trainer to Shyam Hurchund in 2017.

It can be said that his debut season as a fully-fledged trainer was a solid one, as he scored 8 wins, 3 of them coming with Toa Nui. He showed progress in 2019, and after training seven winners in 2020, he will look to do even better in 2021.
