Receiving quiet but confident support in the betting ring, the Hormuz Antia-trained Expedite decisively beat her rivals in the Panchshil Million, the prime event of Sunday's seven-race card. Jockey SG Prasad, astride the three-year-old filly owned by Mr & Mrs R Rashid and Ms Roohi Jaikishan Oomarbhoy, hugged the inner rails until passing the 500m marker, then angled out to get to the extreme outside when turning for home. Urged under the whip, Expedite then passed them all with ease to win the feature race with a measure of comfort.

Dream Seller won his second race of the season, and so did his trainer PS Chouhan and jockey R Ajinkya, when the four-year-old gelding made every post of the Dakshin Maharashtra & Goa Sub Area Trophy a winning one, beating Portofino Bay and Dexa.
