Golden Guest for PD Bolton Trophy

All five runners in the feature race of the first evening card of the Mumbai season, the P D Bolton Trophy for class II horses, have some genuine claim on the winner's prize. Three of them--Augustus Caesar, Golden Guest and Sharareh--are fluent last-outing winners, and the remaining two--Excellent Gold & Silver Flames--are stepping down and up in class respectively.

Looking at the current form and fitness, I expect Golden Guest (David Egan up) to put in a winning performance.

First race at 5 pm.
