Star Empire for Breeders' Produce Stakes

The grade 3, Kunigal Stud Breeders' Produce Stakes is slated as the feature event of Saturday's bumper ten-race card that will trigger a competitive start for the Indian Derby weekend. Nine three-year-olds will face the starter, and the race is bound to be fiercely contested with Star Empire, Ciel Indienne, Ordained One and Ocean And Beyond all being in great heart, and therefore, should be treated as frontline contenders. But I strongly feel the first-named is a cut above the rest, and hence shapes as the best betting proposition of the afternoon.
