Difficult to look beyond Psychic Star in feature event

The kind of turn of foot Psychic Star displayed on this track when winning the AC Ardeshir Trophy was simply awesome, and with that kind of proof of fitness, it is difficult to look beyond her in the Maharaja Jiwajirao Scindia Trophy (Gr 3), the feature event of Sunday's eight-race card. African Gold, with an incredible mock race under his belt before leaving Bangalore, seems to be the only horse who may go close to her. Psychic Star is tipped to win the feature event.
