He has an enviable track record. As one of the largest breeders and owners of horses in the country, he has the distinction of having bred the first 100 classic winners of the country. And as the Managing Director of `Serum Institute of IndiaLtd.' Dr. Cyrus Poonawalla is credited with producing those all important vaccines that ensure health to millions of Indians. With his brother Zavaray and his son Yohan looking after the state-of-the-art Stud farms in Loni and Hadapsar, the Poonawallas could easily be slated as one of the richest families in Pune. Adding yet another feather as he puts Pune on the international racing map, the Poonawalla Millions Derby is one of the most happening events on the city's social calendar. Perhaps, its perfect horse sense!
