The following professionals voiced their opinions on the Omkar Indian Turf Invitation Cup and the Maj. P.K. Mehra Memorial Super Mile Cup:
S.A. Shehzad Abbas: Be Safe is the obvious choice; I have brought Nerves Of Steel from Hyderabad for the Super Mile and he should go well.
L.V.R. Deshmukh: One cannot look beyond Be Safe in the Invitation; although Zachary will be the first choice in the Super Mile, my ward Machiavellianism is in good form and will contest the issue.
Narendra Lagad: In the Invitation Cup, it's Be Safe though Amazing Grace should press him; also Alaindair is back to his best form. I like Zachary and Godspeed in the Super Mile.
M.Narredu: My ward Be Safe is in top form, while Godspeed is returning to her best.
S. Padmanabhan: It's quite safe to back Be Safe in the Invitation Cup! Field Marshall will run a great race in the Super Mile.
Pesi Shroff: Be Safe is the horse to beat in the Invitation Cup but my Amazing Grace will give him a fight; in the Super Mile, Circle Of Bliss should run well as should Machiavellianism, Zachary and Godspeed. — Anil Mukhi
