Selfie Star for Radha Sigtia Trophy

Representational picture

A small, seven-race card is framed for Thursday evening at Mahalaxmi, and the opening race, Radha Sigtia Trophy for class II horses, is the feature event. There are only four runners in the fray who will contest for the mile-and-a-half-trip.

Among them is the Dallas Todywalla-trained Selfie Star, the only four-year-old, and also the only one in the field whose last three runs were at three different centers, but over the same trip (2400m) as today's. That she will be ridden by the highly successful David Allan will only help in making her a strong public choice.

Selfie Star is expected to win the race with a measure of comfort, with Uncle Scrooge and Multiglory likely fighting for the runner up spot.

First race at 5 pm.
