Four of the eight four-year-olds in the grade 1, Indian St Leger are outstation horses, and they are expected to dominate the finish of fifth and final Classic of the 2017-18 campaign to be run at the Pune racetrack on Sunday. The local hopes--Selfie Star and In It To Win It--may be overshadowed by Sana, Kambaku and Dancing Dragon, and it is the last-named, trained by Neil Darashah and to be ridden by Trevor Patel, which is my choice.
First race at 2 pm.
Selections:
D D Pillai Trophy - Div II (Class V; 1600m)
Eagleinthesky 1, Honourable Eyes 2, Gandalf 3.
Janardhan Trophy (Class IV; 1400m)
