The Villoo C Poonawalla Indian Oaks (Gr 1), also called the "Ladies' Derby" as it is reserved for fillies of Classic age (4y) and is run over the Derby trip of 2400m, is the feature event of an extremely tricky Sunday card at the Mahalaxmi racetrack. The Oaks wears an open look, and a surprise winner cannot be ruled out. 

That said, the Pesi Shroff-trained Psychic Star last month unsuccessfully attempted to win a third Classic in four weeks, after travelling from Pune to Hyderabad to Mumbai, and understandably, lost to a vastly superior horse in Santissimo. After those three sharp races over the mile, Psychic Star should relish the longer trip of the Oaks after three weeks' rest, and is expected to give a good account of herself. Vivek G will ride the Pesi Shroff-trained filly.
