A small, six-race evening card is framed for Friday at the Mahalaxmi racetrack, the Behram A Engineer Cup being the sole trophy race, and therefore the feature event. Named after the former secretary of the race club who retired more than a year ago, the race is reserved for class III horses, and will be run over seven furlongs.

There are seven runners in the fray, and anyone looking for victory will have to beat the Vishal Gaikwad-trained Glyndebourne. Since winning on debut over a year ago, Glyndebourne did not live up to the expectations, and went without a win in her next five starts. However, the bunch of rivals she is facing today being rather ordinary, I feel she should not have much difficulty in beating them in the hands of Trevor Patel.
First race at 5.30 pm.

Manyatta Plate (Class IV; 1600m)
Star Bright 1, Ebony 2, Angels Harmony 3.
