Momentum, winner of three mile-and-a-half races on the Mahalaxmi racetrack last season, will be in the fray for the Cricket Club Of India Trophy, the feature event of Sunday's eight-race card which will be run over the same trip.

After struggling to retain form during the Pune campaign, the Pesi Shroff-trained six-year-old gelding has shown signs of dramatic improvement in last run, and with some suggestive track work on race grass last Monday, looks set to upset the apple cart of fancied runners in the hands of N S Parmar.

First race at 2 pm.
