Mojito for Karl Umrigar Trophy

Mahalaxmi racecourse in Mumbai. Pic/Shadab Khan

A seven-race card is framed at the Mahalaxmi racetrack for Thursday, the Karl Umrigar Trophy set as the feature event. The class I contest has only four runners. While Mojito has been knocking at the door for a long time now, both Chopin and Coeur De Lion can put their best foot forward over the mile trip, and make the finish interesting. I expect Mojito, who has a thin but decisive edge on the class factor, to prevail at the finish.

First race at 1 pm.
