LAHORE, Feb 4: A small card of five events featuring the Kashmir Day Cup has been charted out for the midweek Lahore Gymkhana races to be held at the Racecourse on Wednesday.
All events will be held over the sprinting distance of 1200m metres. The first race will start at 1.00 pm.
The fields for events comprise acceptors belonging to lower divisions of class seven, from division V down to division VIII called the scrap division.
The number of acceptors in each events is large which is an unusual phenomenon in the gymkhana races.
In all, 75 runners are taking part in five events.
The feature and fourth event, the Kashmir Day Cup, a Class VII Division V (A) handicap races has 11 runners, if there are no last-minute withdrawals.
Keeping in view the recent performance and handicap, it looks a two-horse affair between bay Fair Boy and the bay colt Triple M. Both have prominently been appearing on the board and are in fine fettle. The distance of 1200m, however, goes in favour of Triple M.
Interestingly Triple M, is jointly owned by three persons, who have M in common as first letter of their names (Mahmood, Mahir and Manzoor). This is how the colt gets his name Tipple M.
The following are the fields and our selections:
