Mumbai 26/4/2015 Concluding day


Race 1- Nigella

Papakura- Keep an eye on him he is capable of creating a flutter over his pet trip.

Race 3- Pure Bliss

Won impressively over this trip in her penultimate outing and then showed good battling qualities with a gritty 2nd over a short scurry. Is in great heart at present and looks the form choice here to win again.

Race 7- Miracle Of Life
Although does not look very high on the master trainer's stable pecking order but could be good enough to win this ordinary maiden race and should be seriously considered.

Race 8- Itscaro 
Last time lost narrowly to Meraki over the same trip.Is improving with each and every run and now can shed his maiden tag if he builds on his last effort. 

Race 9- Top Trainer
Should score easily if he has no fitness issues.
