Augustus Caesar may cause upset in RCTC Trophy

One Wish (Neera Rawal up) will most likely attract most of the betting money, but I feel the oldest in the line-up, the seven-year-old Augustus Caesar trained by Altamaash, may be able to upset in the hands of apprentice Mustakim Alam who will claim a useful allowance which may prove crucial at the all-important end

Despite there being only four runners in the class I, Royal Calcutta Turf Club (RCTC) Trophy, the feature event of Sunday's curtain-raiser for the Mumbai season 2022-23, it's difficult to confidently nominate the winner. One Wish (Neera Rawal up) will most likely attract most of the betting money, but I feel the oldest in the line-up, the seven-year-old Augustus Caesar trained by Altamaash, may be able to upset in the hands of apprentice Mustakim Alam who will claim a useful allowance which may prove crucial at the all-important end.

First race at 2 pm.
