There are eight three-year-olds in the fray for the Gr 1, Betway Pune Derby, the feature event of Sunday's eight-race card. Two of them--colt Emperor Roderic and filly King's Ransom--hail from the yard of champion trainer Pesi Shroff. Any of the other six who wish to win the coveted race will have to beat the Shroff duo over the ten-furlong trip.
