The eight-year-old wonder mare Juliette trained by Karthik G, winner of 19 races from 27 starts, will be looking for the tenth straight victory of her illustrious career at the Mahalaxmi racetrack on Sunday. In the Maharaja Jiwajirao Scindia Trophy (Gr 3), Sunday's feature event, Juliette will be facing almost the same rivals she has repeatedly vanquished--except the Pesi Shroff-trained four-year-old Zuccaro, whose form has continuously been on the upgrade since the time he won his maiden race at Pune more than four months ago, and will be looking for his fifth straight win. Juliette (CS Jodha up), who has so far effortlessly gained all her victories, will certainly need to be at her best to contain Zuccaro (P Trevor up).
