1R : LION KING (4) finished last campaign with a couple of minor placings, the latest over 1400m at Mumbai five months ago. Expected to go well. NAIROBI (10) is a 16-start maiden who finished 12th, beaten 14 lengths, when resuming from a spell last start over 1200m at this track. Fitter and capable of taking this out. CHARMING STAR (3) finished 8 lengths from the winner in fourth last start over 1400m at this track, an improvement on his first-up eighth at this track the run before. Nicely placed to take this out. TOUSSAINT (1) was out of the money when resuming from a spell last start over 1200m at this track, beaten 7 lengths. Fitter so can figure in the finish.
2R : QUEENS PRIDE (1) returned from a spell three-and-a-half weeks ago when she was beaten 5 lengths into fourth over 1000m at this track. Fitter so anticipating a better run this time. BUBBLY BOY (9) returned from a spell three-and-a-half weeks ago when he was beaten 5 lengths into eighth over 1200m at this track. Faces an easier assignment so he will prove hard to beat. MOJO (3) drew wide and was pretty plain last time out despite when 8 lengths from the winner in seventh at this course and distance. Solid top-three hope. SCARAMANGA (7) has not raced since he finished second on debut over 1200m at Mumbai on December 18. Must be respected.
3R : MAYSARA (10) returned from a spell three-and-a-half weeks ago when she was beaten 4.5 lengths into seventh over 1200m at this track. Fitter so anticipating a better run this time. VIJAYA (14) returned from a spell three-and-a-half weeks ago when she was beaten 2.75 lengths into fourth over 1200m at this track. Strips fitter and can feature. LA BELLE (8) is facing the starter for the first time. By Excellent Art and comes from the P Shroff stable. Any push in betting should be respected. PURE FOR SURE (11) ran a better race last start at her second appearance, finishing fifth over 1200m at this track. Coming along nicely and should be in the finish.
4R : INDIA STRONG (8) finished third on debut 13 months ago, beaten 5 lengths over 1200m at Bangalore, and has not been produced since. Has a wide gate to overcome but should prove tough to beat again. ATTAINED (3) finished second, beaten 2.75 lengths, when resuming from a spell last start over 1400m at this track. In the right race and is a key runner. KARIENA (1) returned from a spell three-and-a-half weeks ago when she was beaten 6 lengths into seventh over 1400m at this track. Likely improver with strong prospects. REMY RED (7) finished second last time over 1000m at this track when resuming from a spell, beaten one length. Hard to beat in this suitable race.
