She has been the proud owner and has been associated with some of the finest Thoroughbred horses over the past 25 years, including Derby and Classic winners, who have earned reputations in India and have gone ahead to make a name for Indian racing abroad. She is also the publisher of Racing World, India's only equestrian racing magazine, launched in 2003.
