The Cooji Katrak-trained Star Future, winner of two races from three starts, has nothing much to tackle in the upper division of the Dr K Vasudevan Trophy, the feature event of the nine-race card slated for the Pune track on Saturday.

Accordingly, the Diffident - Sure Future three-year-old attracts as the best bet of the afternoon.
In the other division of the same race, Bullet (Dasrath Singh up) looks capable of toppling the applecart of Star Empire (C Rajendra up) who is likely to be installed as a firm favourite for the contest.

First race at 1.30 pm.
