Kohinoor Wish is giving 7kgs to its nearest rival,has tough set to beat.

Proof loves winter,all win of its career have come on winter track,even though in last race there was big interference to fancied horses yet manner of its victory cannot be ignored,should be in fighting line.

Plentipotent is best on timings but it seems to have lost form after made to run listless in Colts Championship Stakes and Monsoon Derby,lost as hot fav in next two runs,this being the lone entry for the day from Deshmukh stable can be ignored.

Genuis Empress is entrusted to strong rider,last two runs were very poor,lone entry for the day from this stables,at best can place

Bloody Mary is very well placed,has good credentials to win this race.

Rider of Perfect in last race[changed stables from Faiyaz Shaik to LD Silva] was cautioned to ride more determined race,earlier runs were very poor,cannot be ignored for JP and minor combinations

Race5:Ocean Side(6)

Ocean Side's last run can be ignored due to stablemate Prince Of Arabia,has always performed well in strong company,can do well here
