Bangalore Race 5 - Nawab M Arshad Ali Khan Memorial Handicap
CHAMPIONS WAY (3) is a handy galloper who was half a length from the winner in second when resuming last start over 1600m at this track. Should be in the finish. GLORIOUS KING (1) is back at the races for the first time since March 2. Scored over 1400m at Madras to launch the last campaign. Strong chance to kick the campaign off on the right note. KALAMITSI (2) is back at the races for the first time since April 5. Worth noting he filled a minor placing when returning from a spell last prep over 1400m at this track. Looks a strong top-three prospect. SATIVUR (6) didn't threaten when resuming last start over 1600m at this track, finishing fifth, beaten 6 lengths. Has never missed the frame second up. Should be much improved.
