Another nine-race card is offered at the Pune racetrack on Saturday (October 23), the Akkasaheb Maharaj Trophy (grade 3) being slated as the feature event.

Despite conceding weight all around, Iron Age can humble his five rivals, which include Silver Flames, Hidden Gold, and also the Hyderabad challenger Smashing Blue (Akshay Kumar up) from the yard of trainer RH Sequeira, for whom A Sandesh astride Iron Age will need to keep a close eye.
