Iron Age and Intense Stylist are expected to vie for the top honours in the Christmas Cup, the feature event of Friday's eight-race card slated at the Pune racetrack.

Of course there are other quality sprinters in the fray, and some of them are capable of matching strides with the duo mentioned earlier, like Augustus Caesar, Gazino and the last-outing winner Silver Flames, but I feel the contest will finally boil down to a duel between the Imtiaz Sait-trained Iron Age (Y S Srinath up) and the Sunderji-schooled Intense Stylist (A Sandesh up). The last-named gets my vote. First race at 1.15 pm.
