To The Manor Born fancied

The prime contenders for the top spot appear to be Amistad and To The Manor Born, trained by Pesi Shroff and his brother-in-law Nosher Cama respectively.u00a0The latter, who is unbeaten so far with two wins against her name, is expected to complete a hat-trick today.

Cream Of The Crop, a sparingly-raced four-year-old filly from trainer Magansingh Jodha?s yard, can tame her 11 rivals in the Radio One Run, the supporting event of today's card, despite coming out of a longish lay-off of more than four months.

As the day's best betting proposition of the afternoon, I nominate Narendra Lagad-trained Tell Me More who, even at the age of seven, retains enough firepower to tame his younger rivals in the Zafayona Plate.

Today's first race starts at 1:30 pm.

Northern Command Plate - Div II (Class V; 1200m): Speed Up 1, Polar Zone 2, To The Moon 3.
Zafayona Plate (Class IV; 1400m): Tell Me More 1, Indiscrete 2, Adams Spirit 3.
