A Star Is Born, who could not add to his Indian 2000 Guineas success later, now faces a relatively docile opposition in the grade 3, Zavaray S Poonawalla Eve Champion Trophy, the feature event of Saturday's eight-race card at the Pune racetrack. The Roderic O'Connor - Angel Dust colt is expected to easily tackle his four rivals in the hands of jockey Suraj Narredu.
