Evaldo for feature event

Mahalaxmi racecourse in Mumbai. Pic/Shadab Khan

The feature event on Sunday at Mahalaxmi, the Homi Mody Trophy, has only three runners in the fray. The main fight seems to be between Evaldo and Regina Memorabilis who ran together in the Eclipse Stakes of India (Gr 2) two weeks ago on this track. During that run Evaldo, having a free run on the wide outside, managed to finish ahead of Regina Memorabilis who faced some traffic problems when the race took a serious turn. With nothing likely to hinder both runners on Sunday, it will be an interesting contest to watch. Evaldo may prevail at the wire.

First race at 4 pm.
