Mumbai Derby- A Grand Event

Hey! Its Derby time and I thought being in Mumbai , I should put a small note on the Derby happenings!
The Indian Derby**
When:Feb 2007 (annual)Where:Mahalakshmi Race Course, Mumbai (Bombay), IndiaThe highlight of the year's racing calendar in Mumbai is undoubtedly the Indian Derby, run at Mahalakshmi Race Course.
Traditionally run on the first Sunday of February, the Indian Derby is known as the "Crown Jewel of the Triple Crown." The race is restricted to four-year-old horses, both colts and fillies, but is almost of secondary importance to the activities surrounding the event. Serious punters are comprehensively outnumbered on Derby day as the course overflows with well-heeled viewers. It is important to be seen at the Derby and to be seen at your smartest.

The event is supported by McDowell and Company, a liquor company controlled by Vijay Mallya, who also owns one of India's leading stables.
