2R : It would be apt if MASTERPIECE (3) were to score, as the stallion in whose honour this race has been framed once stood at his birth place (stud farm). REIGN OF TERROR (1) is likely to instill fear now that he is back to his winning grade. With the local champion rider at the wheel, going over her ideal trip, and with her fuse lit, DAZZLING DYNAMITE (7) stands poised to detonate (win) and blast this competition to smithereens.
3R : The last-start gutsy winner, ASPIRA (1), has nothing much to fear from this competition. Improving with every run this term, STAR OF LIBERTY (5), beaten to second in a photo finish last week, could come to the fore (win) if she maintains the upward trajectory. Last but not least are the chances of AVIOTHIC (6), who is by the latest sire sensation Dali, as he could cause a huge upset if he hits form.

4R : Beaten to second right on the post after doing all the running on her seasonal debut, MUTANT (2), should prove hard to down as that run would have done her a world of good. OPUS ONE (6) reverts back to a shorter trip, and that could fetch him his second victory of the season. Grade-dropper EMPRESS ETERNAL (1) is not likely to prolong her stay.
5R : Beaten to second and third in their respective previous starts, YAZH (5) and ZANETA (9) should dispute the issue. ANGAVAI (8) may follow the aforementioned duo home.
6R : A victim of inept handling last time out, SAMURAI BLUE (7) would be home and dry with a judicious ride. KALLANIA (2) hit form with a shocking victory last time out, and the well-bred filly could easily make it two in a row. AQUILA (6) is the joker in this.

7R : FOREVER (1), ALBINUS (2), and BERRETTINI (8) are the ones most likely to dominate the proceedings.
8R : Ultra-consistent SWARGA (4) is the pick of the lot. LOCH LOMOND (8) is the next best. Well-bred MULTICROWN (10) has every chance of landing the spoils receiving weight from the field.
9R : After losing twice in succession in agonisingly close finishes, RELIC WARRIOR (3) looks set to slay this lot. KNOTTY POWER (9) is the one most likely to follow the aforementioned home. All that BROTHERHOOD (8), who is by the latest sire sensation Dali, needs to do is hit form to blow this field away.
KOLKATA REVIEW
1R : NORD (1) was an impressive maiden winner last time out, scoring by 6 lengths over 1600m at this track. Looks well placed and he should be in the finish. TANGO PUNCH (2) finished fifth two runs back then improved last start but found a couple better over 1600m at this track, beaten 5 lengths. Has his share of talent. Hard to beat in this suitable race. TESS (5) resumes from a spell of 12 weeks and is having her outing under new trainer D M David. Finished ninth at Pune over 1200m at the opening run last time in work. Can measure up at the first run for a new barn. GANADORA (3) is a promising maiden who looks close to a win, finishing fourth on debut then placing over 1600m at this track last time out. Should be prominent from the outset. Don't underestimate.
2R : EUPHORIC (3) hasn't won recently but looks close to a breakthrough based on his last start third at this track over 2000m when beaten 2.75 lengths. Has the gate speed to take up a forward position. Will give a great sight. Group 2 winner STOCKBRIDGE (2) finished 11 lengths away in fourth last time out over 1600m at this track two-and-a-half weeks ago. Tackles a longer journey this time. Should be prominent from the outset. Likely to feature. Group 3 placegetter REDOUBTABLE (1) never really threatened when resuming last time out, finishing midfield and beaten 12 lengths over 1400m at this track. Has good early speed so should take up a forward position. Should be involved in the finish.
3R : OH MY DARLING (4) had a bit on her rivals last time with an impressive 3 lengths win over 1600m at this track. Has a high cruising speed. Will give a great sight. HELLBLAZER (3) missed the placings two starts back then ran a better race and finished 1.0 lengths away in fourth last time out over 1200m at this track. Has his share of talent. Hard to beat in this suitable race. TENN (1) made progress last time out, finishing 7 lengths from the winner in third at the end of 1400m at this track. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. PAL CHA (5) finished eighth last time out over 1200m at this track, beaten 4 lengths. One of the genuine contenders.

4R : LA DOMINATE (4) is close to a win after a string of minor placings, the latest when second over 1100m at this track. Nicely placed to take this out. MAKHTOOB (2) ran a good race last start to finish second over 1600m at this track. May appreciate coming back in journey. Nice run last time and should be in the finish. MANDOLIN (5) hasn't been able to break through for an extended period, the latest effort a fourth over 1400m at this track. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot return to winning ways. BLACK COFFEE (7) improved last start to finish third over 1400m at this track. Well placed and can figure in the finish again.
5R : BUNDLE OF CHARM (3) was prominent from the outset when third over 1200m at this track last time out. Should be prominent from the outset. Will prove tough to beat. ARCHWAY (2) had been racing well with two consecutive placings before last start managing only sixth over 1200m at Bangalore. Has the pace to settle in the leading division. Among the leading chances. GOOD TIP (1) missed the placings two starts back then ran a better race and finished 8 lengths away in fifth last time out over 1100m at this track. Likely improver with strong prospects. SUPERSTELLAR (5) was out of the money when resuming from a spell last start over 1600m at this track, beaten 14 lengths. Fitter so can figure in the finish.

6R : SNOW LEOPARD (1) is looking to keep the 100% record intact after a debut win by a head at this track over 1100 two-and-a-half weeks ago. Looks good enough to prevail against limited opposition. AEROPOLI (2) is on debut for the Aashay Doctor stable. Two-year-old colt by Win Legend from Hauhaiwunai. Looks set for a bright start. Watch for positive market leads. LADY SUNSHINE (3) is a two-year-old filly on debut from the stable of Bharath Singh. By Sir Cecil from Sunshine Girl. Expected to feature. PHENOMENAL LADY (4) is appearing for the first time. By Leitir Mor and comes from the P Quinn stable. Pay to watch for any positive betting moves.
7R : DUBAI GOLD (5) built on a nice second two starts back at this track with a win over 1400m at this track two-and-a-half weeks ago, getting home by 0.8 lengths. Has his share of talent. Hard to beat in this suitable race. CLEVER HANS (7) wasn't far away last time out, finishing third over 1400m at this track. The extra journey should play into his hands. One of the main contenders. BASHARAT (4) saluted at this track two runs ago. Fair effort last time out when fifth over 1400m at this track, beaten 2.75 lengths. Has a good record at this course and distance, including four wins. Finds a suitable race and can go on to take this out. WHITE ROSES (9) is a last-start winner a month ago, scoring by 7 lengths over 1400m at this track. Strong top-three chance.
