The PRA Independence Million over ten furlongs is slated as the feature event of Monday's bumper ten-race card, and at least on paper, it looks like the trickiest race of the afternoon. My choice for the race is the Sangramsinh N Joshi-trained Ashwa Parwez on whom Dashrath Singh will don Mrs Anita Chauhan's silks.

First race at 12.30 pm.

Selections:

Race 1: Ashwa Prahar 1, Crescendo 2, Wild Imagination 3.
Race 2: Go Guzzi Go 1, Tora Bora 2.
Race 3: Ocean Legacy 1, Bullet 2, Batista 3.
Race 4: White Knight 1, Su Chaliyo 2, Misschevious Trot 3.
Race 5: Botswana 1, Arctic Minstrel 2, Follow The Dream 3.
Race 6: Orito 1, Heiress 2, Star Zone 3.
Race 7: Ashwa Parwez 1, Frost Fairy 2, Titian 3.
Race 8: Divine Splendor 1, Mountain Fairy 2, Blessed 3.
Race 9: Magical Mantra 1, Celebrations 2, Ashwa Prayag 3.
Race 10: Matilda 1, Zeki 2, Ocean Trail 3.
