Two six-year-olds are taking on two four-year-olds in the grade 3, Maharaja Sir Harishinghji Trophy, the main event of the eight-race card programmed for the Sunday afternoon at Mahalaxmi. Cabriolet may be fancied very strongly, but I expect Mr Greedy, carrying the same silks as Cabriolet but trained by MK Jadhav, to decisively dominate the judge's end. Two horses most likely to provide encore--San Raphael in the opening race and Snow Queen in the second race--shape as good bets of the day.
First race at 2.30 pm.
