1R : 1-3-2
It would not be wrong if LITTLE WONDER (1) were to score in the opener of the day, for he has the bloodline to do so, and if pedigree is the only criterion, then MAGICAL WAVE (3) enters the picture. FAST PLAY (2), a modestly bred contestant, begs to differ, and he would be eager to disprove that.
2R : 2-1-3
Those looking for a quick return should try their luck with the in-form contender, TIMELESS ROMANCE (2) and those wanting meatier odds ought to have a go at PROTEA (1). The pending horse, SINATRA (3), could well come to the fore while the debate rages.
3R : 4-3-2
MUSANDA (4), an emphatic winner on debut, looks set to make it two in a row. Pending for a while, ZUCARDI (3), could give the aforementioned one the jitters. With the rest of the field likely to be "off," speedy LORD OF THE TURF (2) may be able to hang on and finish in the money.
4R : 2-7-6
In rip-roaring form, THE AWAKENING (2) looks home and dry. Going almost bare-back, speedy BEEJAY (7) may exploit the advantage to his benefit. GODS PLAN (6) says the best of schemes have quite often gone awry and to consider him.

STILL I RISE (10) is on the upswing and eager to make amends for his narrow defeat in the Mysore Derby (Gr.1). ASHWA MAGADHEERA (3), the conqueror of STILL I RISE in a million race at Mysore, will strive to do a repeat act. The previous poor performance of ALBINUS (1) ought to be taken with a pinch of salt and discarded as an aberration, for he has the ability to overcome this competition.
7R : 8-10-6
It often pays to follow prominent silks on big race days, and that could be proven true with SABATINI (8). The same holds true for RUBIROSA (10) and MYSTICAL ROSE (6).
8R : 3-7-1
SUPARAKIGA (3) could come to the fore if he were to build on his previous effort (ran second). GOLDEN STREAK (7) will likely streak ahead and strike gold if given a fast pace. BEAUTY OF THE TURF (1) looks poised to woo the rest of the field out of competition.
