Bangalore Race 7

Rwitc Handicap

Stake: $18,652

ARALINA (6) turned in a fine effort to score by 6 lengths at this course and distance last start to maintain her good form of late. Going up a level this time but she is good enough to play a major role. THE PROTECTOR (1) ran sixth at his latest appearance over 1400m at this track, finishing 3.5 lengths from the winner. Excels over this journey with four wins from 12 runs. Has the right profile. KALAMITSI (5) had been racing consistently with two minor placings on end prior to finishing fourth most recently over 2000m at Mysore. Back to the track at which he finished third two runs back. Has good early speed so should take up a forward position. Sure to be competitive. FORSETI (4) finished third over 1400m at this track at his most recent appearance on November 3 2023. Now under the care of new trainer Imtiaz Khan. Has to be respected.
