Only four runners have accepted to contest in the Maharaja Jiwajirao Scindia Gold Trophy (Gr 2), the prime event of Friday's nine-race card. Forest Flame, hailing from the yard of the Bangalore-based trainer Suleiman Attaollahi, has the best credentials to win the nine-furlong contest.

In the hands of jockey A Sandesh, Forest Flame is expected to win from the Pesi Shroff-trained North Star (P Trevor up).
