KARACHI: Three thoroughbreds hat-trick performer Big Bravo, Trial Cup winner War It Is and incumbent Derby winner Royal Ransom are in contention for the Quaid-e-Azam Gold Cup, the flagship event of Karachi Race Club (KRC) at the Racecourse on Saturday.
Big Bravo scaled new heights last year by making it three wins on the trot in the Quaid-e-Azam Gold Cup.
War It Is came into prominence when he got the better of two main contenders to win the Trial Cup on Dec 13.
Royal Ransom hogged limelight while capturing the Derby at Lahore Racecourse last March.
Big Bravo’s half-brother Big Faith who was placed second beaten by 10 lengths in the Quaid-e-Azam Gold Cup last year, completes the quartet.

The creation of Pakistan would never become a reality if the Muslims of the subcontinent did not have a visionary leader like the Father of the Nation Mohammad Ali Jinnah. It was his dynamic and dedicated leadership that we are living in an independent country.
The Quaid-e-Azam was the best barrister and politician of his era and his wisdom was undoubtedly unparalleled and unmatched. MA Jinnah was not greedy as other leaders we have seen after Partition nor was he a tool of non-political forces of local or international organisations. He never exploited religion like religious leaders.
These views were expressed by poet and seasoned journalist Mahmood Shaam on Thursday. He was addressing a special seminar on the â144th birth anniversary of Quaid-e-Azam Mohammad Ali Jinnah and our new generationâ. The event was organised and held at the Pakistan Study Centre, University of Karachi.
