PUNE: Sea Queen, trained by Cooji Katrak and to be ridden by Imran Chisty, shapes as the best bet of the Sunday card. The daughter of Placerville towers over her dozen rivals in the Dr K Vasudevan Plate, one of the trophy races of the nine-race programme.

For the Panchshil Million, the stellar event of the show, nine three-year-olds will face the starter in what promises, at least on paper, a very competitive affair. Another Katrak ward, Arts (YS Srinath up), has an edge over his rivals, and should win from Forever Young, Bluemarine and Estevez.
