LAHORE: Makhdum Syed Ahmad Mahmud was unanimously re-elected as chairman of the Lahore Race Club (LRC) for 2024-25 during a meeting of the recently-elected stewards here on Saturday.

This is the fourth time Makhdum Syed Ahmad has been elected to the office.

In 2019, he opted to remain out from Feb 25 to May 23, when his close friend Mohammad Kaleem Khan acted as LRC chairman and later vacated the post to hand it over to the Makhdum.

Following Makhdum Syed Ahmad’s re-election the stewards panel includes him, Syed Yusuf Raza Gilani, Syeda Abida Hussain, Syed Pervez Hussain, Arbab Mohammad Zahoor, Javaid Khalid, Azmat Ali Ranjha, Mahmood Rafi, Fawad Ahmad Cheema and Dr Gohar Ejaz.

Meanwhile, a seven-event race card for Sunday was released featuring three cup races.
