All eyes will be on the Karthik Ganapathy-trained Juliette when horses participating in the C N Wadia Gold Cup (Gr 2), powered Zavaray S Poonawalla, will file in the Mahalaxmi paddock minutes before the scheduled flag-off at 6.15 pm.

Going by the recent form, Juliette's only worthy rival appears to be the Pesi Shroff-trained King's Ransom whom she convincingly humbled last month at Bangalore during the Invitation Cup race. She is expected to do it again.

Jockey CS Jodha will ride Juliette; and PS Chouhan will assist King's Ransom.
