Pune Racing: Kings Gambit Favoured To Win Grade 3 Eve Champion Trophy At Pune Race Course

Pune, August 1, 2026: The four-year-old filly Kings Gambit looks the one to beat in the Eve Champion Trophy, the first graded race of the Pune racing season, to be run at the Pune Race Course on Sunday.

Trained by Pesi Shroff, Kings Gambit has been working impressively on the Pune track and appears primed to make amends after her previous outing. If she reproduces her trackwork on race day, she should prove difficult to beat.

Main Challengers

Red Bishop and Azalea are expected to provide the stiffest opposition in what promises to be an exciting contest.
