Time And Tide will need to be wary of Siege Courageous

While the two mentioned above have the best credentials, the presence of Magileto and Market King on their home track makes the contest even more interesting

Time And Tide will be facing almost the same set of rivals that he vanquished in the Sprinters' Cup at Kolkata, and therefore, the Adhirajsingh Jodha-trained colt will be strongly fancied to win the Zavaray S Poonawalla Sprinters' Challenge, the feature event of Saturday's seven-race card at Mahalaxmi. 

However, he will have to be wary of Siege Courageous who, after losing to Time And Tide on that occasion, put in a far better performance the next day when he won the Gr 2, Suresh Mahindra Multi-Million. While the two mentioned above have the best credentials, the presence of Magileto and Market King on their home track makes the contest even more interesting.
