SARGA.CO — A fierce showdown is about to erupt in the 1,300-meter Youth Class at the 18th Sawahlunto Derby 2025, which will take place at the Kandi Horse Racing Arena, Sawahlunto, on Sunday, December 7, 2025.
PORDASI West Sumatra has released the official drawing results for the 1,300-meter Youth Class (Race 10), a category that always steals the spotlight because it serves as the stage for future champions. This is often where the horses who will later shine in the main Derby class make their first mark.
Here are the complete drawing results:
From the gate positions alone, it’s clear the competition won’t be casual. Narasaki Shanji, Saga Serumpun, and Historia Guti landed inner gates — a big advantage for breaking fast. Meanwhile, Reanna Shankara and Power Nagura will have to work harder from the outside. In the middle lanes, Black Dynamite, Volcanic, and Freya Queen are poised to strike.
The Youth Class has always been a showcase for young horses still carving out their identity. They haven’t reached their peak yet — and that’s exactly what makes it exciting: anyone can emerge as the winner.
With a 1,300-meter distance demanding both speed and stamina, this race is set to be one of the most compelling highlights of the 2025 Sawahlunto Derby.
Entering its 18th edition, the Sawahlunto Derby is no longer just a sporting event — it has become a cultural tradition, a family spectacle, and a tourism attraction. This year, 57 horses from various regions are ready to heat up 11 races throughout the day.
Jockeys leaning forward, horses kicking up clouds of dust, and the roar of spectators will once again fill the Kandi track on Sunday morning. The races begin at 09:00 AM WIB and run until finish, offering a full day of unmissable speed duels.
