Calcutta, Dec. 31 :     It promises to be a great morning at the New Year's Day races after a good night of celebrations. It also seems easy to predict if the eight-event card framed for the day is going to be a happy hunting ground for the expected turn-out or a graveyard for bookies. Favourites are, of course, going to have a bigger say at the finish. So, Cheers! The Eveready Gold Cup takes the front seat in tomorrow's card. The seven-horse strong field includes three highly rated outstation contenders - Allied Forces, Master Of The Rolls and Bountiful Treasure. But the local hope Alternator is no push-over. The Bharath Singh-youngster is a champion in the making and may score. However, in The Telegraph Cup, Bharath's ward, Allodium, may find the Darius Byramji-trainee Super Smile hard to contain. The Twist and Turn-Exultation daughter is looking much improved since her last win in the present class. Darius' two other wards, Merano in the Eveready Heavy Duty Cup and Alsadena in the Tez Tea Calcutta Sprinters' Trophy will take some beating. Start your New Year with Amerrico in the 2,200m Britannia Cup. The A. Goenka-trainee is best over a trip.
