Second behind Val D'aran in her last start at the Blue Mountains, Aarini from the stables of Vijay Singh to be piloted by Hindu Singh is likely to garner the maximum support in the Nilgiris Collector's Cup, the plum event at the races on Sunday. The main threat to Aarini will emanate from the Suresh schooled Royal Chivalry who finished third behind the goodtype of youngster Vinalia and Falconbridge from Robert Foley's yard. The former holds the edge and is likely to follow Aarini home.

The Ramanathan-trained Presto Power, who finished a game third behind Raffinato last week, competing in the Teofilo Handicap holds the edge in the creditable field of nine runners and is recommended as the day's best betting proposition.
