Booker Jones for C N Wadia Gold Cup

The Grade 2, C N Wadia Gold Cup is slated as the feature event of Sunday's evening racing card at Mahalaxmi. There are five runners in the fray for the mile-and-a-half trip, and Colombiana, being the sole 4y old and the youngest of the lot, is likely to attract favouritism, along with Azzuro has been ambitiously placed in the contest by the Bangalore-based trainer Suleiman Attaollahi.


However, the race may prove much more tricky with Booker Jones, always placing one-two in the last half a dozen starts, and The Unicorn, the one-paced wonder who keeps going over any trip with boundless energy, also in the fray.


I expect Booker Jones to run a vastly improved race, and therefore nominate him as the first choice.


First race at 3.45 pm.

Nadia Mary Homi Wadia Trophy (For 3y, maidens; 1000m)
