Mumbai: Astounding Bay, should prevail over the others, in a small field of six runners who take to the starting gates for the JD & Peggy Banatwalla Trophy, the feature event on the special day of the Mumbai meeting to be held at the Mahalaxmi racecourse here on Sunday. He had taken the early initiative and held on through the long Mumbai straight and with that winning experience he should prove to be the best.
