3.Shivalik Boy-Win

A 3 way finish in expected between Shivalik Boy{Very very impressive winner},Dancing Princess{final fast trackwork impressive} and Granada{stripped fitter after good forward run with rookie}.Since conventional racing wisdom says respect winners we opt for Shivalik Boy whose bloodlines suggests it can tackle this added furlong

If any of the above 3 fail then Only Prince can sneak in place

5.Pallas-Win

Torch Bearer with this rider looks doubtful

Pallas is the horse in form and should be the one to be beaten here

Michaela from Mysore has been very impressive in its career so far,,will try its best here in first run at Bangalore

Zodiac needs to be ridden in check else horse has tendency to hit front which will mar all its chances

Luc Divine may not do well from outermost box under whipless rider

Breaking Away after running easy in higher class should be a force to reckon with in this set,place looks good

Montenegro who lost under suspicious circumstances in last winter season was pitched in unfavorable distance and class thereafter,has dropped a lot in handicap and should go all out here in this favorable class and distance

Hector lost to repeat winner Multiapp,will try to make amends

I’ve Got clout has weights issue

Tuscano is consistent,pitched in this class for first time,may run easy

Ravelnation is genuine upset contender

3.Fabulous Touch-Win

Fabulous Touch’s run in Mysore Guineas should be ignored,is best on class and should be the one to be beaten

Tzar stamped its  class by authoritative win in class 3 after clearing maidens,will seriously test class of Fabulous Touch

Fjord won well on debut,well rested and well prepared but facing some real good horses and will need to put lot improved performance than what it displayed in debut

Antananarivo is not sighted in tracks after last run hence ignoring it

Zafran who lost to Siyouni earlier won well last time,lacks the class relatively

1.Pearl City-Win

3years old maiden horses making their handicap debut will have upper hand

Pearl City{Ex:Serena Ballerina} is giving weight to co-age gelding!!..Conventional racing wisdom says only a classic filly can give weights to geldings/Colts and win.Pearl City was fav against horses like Watchmyscript and Hall Famer,has impressed massively in mockrace and should be the one to be beaten here

Flirting Eye’s final fast trackwork is suggestive,can place
