Jendayi and Royal Mysore (both 4y olds) may be fancied more than the rest, but Mojito and Count Of Savoy (despite elephantine imposts of 66 kg & 62.5 kg respectively) can make the finish interesting

Jendayi and Royal Mysore (both 4y olds) may be fancied more than the rest, but Mojito and Count Of Savoy (despite elephantine imposts of 66 kg & 62.5 kg respectively) can make the finish interesting.
However, I feel jockey Neeraj Rawal astride the Imtiaz Sait-trained Géographique, who tested her under pressure in last start at Mumbai in an extremely tough set, should now be able to plan the trip better, and with little luck, can win the feature event.
