Mumbai racegoers will be treated to a unique experience this Sunday at the Mahalaxmi racecourse: 50 plus flavours of on-tap craft beer! The "Bombay Brewout" theme of celebrations will make sure that the Zavaray S Poonawalla Racing Carnival, the annual grand finale of the Mumbai racing season, is signed off in style.
The gala event will be hosted by the Royal Western India Turf Club (RWITC) in association with Zavaray S Poonawalla and the Poona Cartel. Poonawalla, as usual, will loosen his purse strings for the stakes money of Rs 3.5 crore, and power three races: the Zavaray S Poonawalla Sprinters' Challenge, the CN Wadia Gold Cup (Gr 2) and the Maharaja Sir Harisingji Trophy (Gr 3).
