The SK Sunderji-trained Timeless, who is bidding for third straight victory in 40 days in the feature event of Saturday's seven-race evening card, the Madras Race Club Trophy.
It cannot be denied that trainer Sunderji has accomplished a commendable feat with Timeless. He has kept the horse in razor sharp condition only through the race runs, as the last published spurt of the horse was on February 6, exactly two months ago. No doubt Timeless has won both his recent races in a commanding fashion, but meeting four top class sprinting rivals in class I without work will be viewed as an acid test for the Surfrider - Showstopper four-year-old. Mygrator and Abbey are expected to match strides with him.
First race at 5 pm.
