Maniram "Boboy' Maharaj basking in the glory of his Independence Cup success with First To Fly, can again claim top honours this weekend when he saddles top-weighted Blackstone Street and Back On Top in the feature 1,750 metres event for Three-Year-old and over rated 100 -80. The former Stewards Cup winner, has not been at his best for some time but with Maharaj's stable beginning to tick, Blackstone Street could regain the winning thread at the main expense of stablemate and 2010 Derby winner Back on Top.
The Derick Mosca trained Burst of Energy and the Terrance Thomas trained Strikes Not Spares which will be seeking to repeat his success of three weeks ago are expected to go close. Others in the field include the speedy El Bandido De Oro, Cubic Capacity and Proud Kentuckian. When entries were taken for the eight-race programme a total of 90 horses took entry.
Post time is 12.45 pm.
