Bengaluru based migrant Victoria Doresani enjoys a decisive edge over her local competitors.

Distance:1400M time:2:10 PM
My choices:2.Toshiro, 6.Digital empress,1.Concordia

Daring Spirit, an impressive winner last time out, post penalty, may be difficult to repeat. Bangalore migrant Basilica won the race in same class at Bangalore, but nothing has done in higher class at Bangalore, now racing in a lower class on local track. Doesn't impress me for win.  4y old young Laquinta though a non winner has a chance to upset the fancied runners in its 11th career start, an each way suggested if odds are more for comfort.
