Followers of form lost out big on Saturday, only two favourites, War Emblem and Laguna Seca coming through in the eight-event card. Competing in the Fabrizio Handicap run over a sprint, the consistent War Emblem, knocking at the door, gained an entry into the winners' circle outclassing his 11 rivals in the hands of Farid Ansari. The winner from Fahad Khan's yard, who had finished second thrice from his last four starts went one better and to the delight of his supporters earned his winning bracket. A 10 to one long shot, Princess O Star followed the winner home ahead of Glock, while Happiness completed the frame. 

Twice second from as many starts, the Vijay Singh-trained Laguna Seca was the public rage in the Alphabet Million run over a distance of seven furlongs. The chestnut filly piloted by Hindu Singh in a relatively small field of five runners, followed the leader Golden Sabre for most part of the trip before Hindu Singh reminded her of the task on hand at the top of the straight and the half-money favourite responding brilliantly to her master's call shed her maiden success in emphatic fashion. Mindful gained the runner-up berth ahead of Golden Sabre. 

Hindu Singh earlier booted home rank outsider Reign Of Terror to a shock victory in the Sandown Handicap run over a distance of seven furlongs. The winner from the stables of Mandanna, who had finished 10 lengths behind Rising Tycoon in his last start on Derby day to the surprise of most followers of form produced a vastly improved effort to register his second win this season. The favourite Windsor Walk much to the disappointment of his large following finished second ahead of Santamarina Star, who after his victory on Derby eve did well to save money in place, competing in the higher category. 

In the opening event, the Mishriff Handicap, the Vijay Singh schooled See It Thru garnered the maximum support, but the top fancy raced in patches and much to the chagrin of railbirds finished in the ruck. Multiwave from the stables of B Suresh dropped the biggest bombshell in this event edging out Summer Song who in his attempt to make every post a winning one found one better in Multiwave. The winner paid a whopping dividend of Rs 466 on a tenner at the tote window. Senora Bianca fancied in place did well to finish third to the joy of her supporters who confidently supported her in place. 

Samachar on the strength of her impressive effort in her last effort, second behind Amazing Joy was fancied most in the upper division of the Malvado Handicap run over a distance of seven furlongs. But the Suraj Shaw schooled public choice lost a couple of lengths at the start from which she never recovered and all she did at end was take a lot of good money down the drain. Lesser fancied Win Win from the stables of James McKeown in the hands of leading pro Umesh produced a winning gallop at the all-important end to score from Super Stride, while the Sebastian-trained Everwin managed to save money in place. 

The lower division of the event was claimed by the second in demand at the betting ring, King's Guardian from the stables of Robert Foley. Farid Ansari, who had earlier booted home War Emblem  recorded a double guiding home the Foley ward to a smart victory in the concluding event. Aquila finished second ahead of the second in demand at the betting ring, Amazing Light, while the overwhelming public choice Dakshin Vijay failed to even make the frame. 

Perfect Blend from Saddam Iqbal's yard was another lesser fancied winner, coming up tops in the PT Rajan Memorial Cup run over a sprint. The winner pegged back another lesser fancied contestant All Stars, while the favourite Smiles Of Fortune from Deepesh Narredu's yard, it appeared had lost his galloping shoes, finishing poor fourth behind the friendless Constant Variable. 

Wolf Creek from Mckeown's yard earned the top billing in the PM Antony Memorial Cup run over a mile, but it was his stablemate Starkova who reigned supreme and this `googly' clean bowled the followers of form. Persian Rock from Fahad Khan's yard, who had his fair share of followers did produce his best, but that was just not good enough to stop Starkova and the five-kilo claimer Ritesh Gochhi from entering the winners' circle. Persian Rock's stablemate Rise Again finished third, while Starkova's fancied stablemate Wolf Creek who appeared in a real hurry to win the mile long event lacked the gas in the tank to make a race of it in the final furlong and finished of the frame.
