Horse racing: Questina tipped for DRC Cup

This picture has been used for representational purposes

Another interesting--and intriguing--card is on offer for Sunday at Pune where the Mumbai racing season is being conducted at present. There are seven races to be run, and the feature event is the six-furlong sprint for class II horses: the DRC Cup.

Notable among the dozen runners in the fray are Storm Breaker, Anatevka, Dandi March, Questina, Divine Hunt and Properly Posh, and it is difficult to predict who is in the most forward condition at present. I expect the Imtiaz Sait-trained Questina (A Sandesh up) to be seriously concerned at the finish.

First race at 2 pm.

Astral Flash Plate - Div II (Class IV; 1000m)
