1R : GEOGRAPHIQUE (1) last appeared three weeks ago when she was beaten one length into second over 1600m at this track. Looks good enough to prevail against limited opposition. VINCENT VAN GOGH (4) proved too strong two runs ago at this track. Not as effective last time out when fourth over 1600m at this track, beaten 3 lengths. Likely improver with strong prospects. Multiple Group 2 placegetter TRULY EPIC (2) has been in the placings at his last two starts, finishing second last time over 2400m at this track. Beautifully placed and is sure to play a major role. FLAMING LAMBORGINI (3) resumes. Wasn't far away at the only run last time in work, finishing sixth over 1600m at this track nine weeks ago. Has a high cruising speed. Should give backers a sight.
2R : FAST APPROACH (2) should be peaking now after finishing second over 1000m at this track last time at the third run of the campaign. Has the gate speed to take up a forward position. Likely to feature. TOUCH OF GOLD (10) is a two-start maiden who placed on debut then could only manage eighth last start, beaten 8 lengths over 1200m at this track. Has the speed to overcome the draw. Strong chance this line-up. FLASHMAN (3) finished out of the money two starts back then was beaten 8 lengths when seventh in a 1200m contest at this track three weeks ago. Looks well placed so expect a big run this time. CELESTIAL (1) is a nicely bred three-year-old colt lining up for the first time. By Roderic O'connor from Sweeping Star who has produced some fine gallopers, including winners at black type level. Sure to be well-educated, being from the P Shroff stable. Has the aid of a nice alley and should play a big role.

3R : Group 3 winner THE PANTHER (3) finished 5 lengths away in fifth last time out over 1400m at this track three weeks ago. Tackles a longer journey this time. Has the pace to settle in the leading division. Expected to be in the finish. GAMBINO (2) landed his maiden success over this course and distance last time, scoring by a head. Is lightly raced and has plenty of scope for improvement. Shaping up nicely and he is a great chance to go back-to-back. PAMCHAVAN (6) made a promising debut over 1600m at this track last start, finishing third and beaten 0.6 lengths. Likely improver so he is among the leading chances. DIVINE HOPE (5) has been kept fresh for this since a disappointing fifth last start over 1600m at this track six weeks ago. Should be prominent from the outset. One of the better hopes.
4R : Group 3 placegetter RUNNING STAR (2) did a good job last start to finish second at Group 3 level at this track over 1400m, beaten 0.8 lengths. That run should have her rock-hard fit now. Yash Narredu stays on. Well placed and should be in the finish. Group 3 placegetter EARTH (1) is racing well, scoring two back at this track before finishing 2.25 lengths from the winner in third last time over 1400m in Group 3 grade at this track. Has good early speed so should take up a forward position. Will give a great sight. SPANISH EYES (3) is coming off a last-start fourth, beaten 3.5 lengths, over 1400m at this track. Expected to feature. SUPERLUMINAL (10) missed the placings on debut two runs back then didn't feature last start when 11 lengths away in tenth over 1400m at this track. Finds a more suitable contest and can find winning form.

5R : BUBBLY BOY (2) saluted at this track two runs ago. Decent effort last time out when fourth over 1600m at this track, beaten 2 lengths. Finds a suitable race and can return to the winner's circle. RAFFAELLO (1) finished out of the money two starts back then was beaten 13 lengths when eighth over 1600m at this track three weeks ago. Has the class to take this out. DJANGO (4) returns from a spell of seven months. Was safely held at the only appearance last prep when disqualified over 2000m at Pune. Should be prominent from the outset. Will give backers a great sight. Group 3 placegetter ZARAK (3) hasn't been able to break through for an extended period, the latest effort a sixth over 1800m at this track. Good enough on his day and can run a bold race.
6R : ESFIR (5) has been in the money at her last couple of runs, the latest when second over 1400m at this track. Haridas Gore has registered four minor placings when on board. Likely to feature. WALTER (1) finished 3.5 lengths from the winner in fourth last start over 1400m at this track, an improvement on his eighth at this track the run before. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot find winning ways. HIGH SPIRIT (7) is finding the breakthrough elusive, beaten 4 lengths into sixth at her latest appearance over 1400m at this track. Has a high cruising speed. Sure to be competitive. PRINCE O' WAR (4) fought on for second last start over 1600m at this track, beaten 4 lengths to add to some fine recent form. Suitably placed so anticipating a big run this time.
7R : MALET SPRING (8) is racing well including a last start third over 1200m at this track. Terrific chance to break through. ARBITRAGE (7) finished second two runs back at this track then improved last time out to score by 1.5 lengths over 1000m at this track. Finds a suitable race and can figure in the finish. GODDES OF DAWN (2) turned in a nice run last time to finish third over 1000m at this track. Nicely placed to find winning ways. STREET SENSE (9) turned things around last start and got the job done by a nose over 1200m at this track. Has her share of ability. Hard to beat again in this suitable race.
