SARGA.CO – Alongside the Star of Stars event that steals the spotlight, the Super Sprint class stands out as one of the most anticipated races at the Indonesia’s Horse Racing (IHR) Pordasi 59th National Championship Series II. The race will take place at the Sultan Agung Horse Racing Field, Bantul, Yogyakarta (DIY), on Sunday, October 19, 2025, bringing together some of the fastest horses from across Indonesia.
According to the official draw released by PP Pordasi, here are the seven horses that will battle it out in this year’s Super Sprint race:
With three strong representatives from Jakarta, the capital is eyeing domination—but fierce resistance will come from West Java, East Java, and South Kalimantan.
A Legacy of Speed – The Super Sprint’s Prestigious History
Since its debut in 2009, the Super Sprint has been a premier showcase of speed, producing legendary racehorses such as Djohar Manik, Queen Thalassa, and Balerion Nagari.
Notably, Queen Thalassa remains the only horse to have won the event twice (in 2019 and 2024), both victories guided by the veteran jockey J. Runtu. Her dominance continues the strong tradition of West Java’s horses, which have frequently swept podiums over the past decade.
Jockey J. Runtu himself is a Super Sprint icon, holding four championship titles achieved with three different horses — Queen Diamond, Dragon Runner, Luxotica, and of course, Queen Thalassa.
Though just 1,300 meters long, this race is no lottery. Every split second counts.
A perfect reaction to the starter’s signal can define victory.
The jockey’s timing to accelerate is crucial.
And the trainer’s tactical setup must be flawless.
With competitors representing multiple provinces and a decade-long tradition of sprinting glory, the Super Sprint 2025 is set to deliver a high-tension, no-mercy, and fast-paced showdown that will thrill spectators from start to finish.
Will Princess Gavi bring the trophy home for West Java? Or will Dominator and the Jakarta contingent break that dominance? Perhaps challengers from other regions will rise and steal the crown. One thing is certain — Super Sprint 2025 will mark another historic milestone in Indonesia’s horse racing scene, celebrating the speed, strategy, and spirit that define true champions.
