Proposed, Parade Renew Rivalry in Vanity H.

Proposed and Star Parade, who staged a dramatic battle in the Milady Breeders’ Cup Handicap (gr. II) one month ago, lead a small but strong field of seven entered for the $300,000 Vanity Invitational Handicap (gr. I) at Hollywood Park Sunday.

Proposed, to be ridden once again by Patrick Valenzuela, edged away from Star Parade and Martin Pedroza in the final jumps of a stretch-long duel to win by head in the 1 1/6-mile Milady.

Trained by John Shirreffs, Proposed seeks her first grade I win in the Vanity, which is a sixteenth of a mile longer than the Milady. Both Proposed and Star Parade, the multiple grade I winning 7-year-old Argentine mare, were assigned 120 pounds.

Star Parade defeated Vanity rivals for trainer Darrell Vienna Healthy Addiction and Hollywood Story in the Hawthorne Handicap (gr. III) prior to the Milady.

Sharp Lisa returns to the main track after running sixth of seven in the Gamely Breeders’ Cup (gr. IT) May 29. She won the Santa Barbara Handicap (gr. IIT) on the Santa Anita lawn prior to that.

E-age Musketeers

E-age Musketeers There are no wars anywhere, but battles everywhere. And what you need is just comrades in arms. You need partners who will stand beside you shoulder-to-shoulder, share the same vision and fight a good battle and, maybe, stay with you throughout. The romantics may miss the clang, clamour and adrenaline rush of a real war. There are enough battles to be fought in the corporate world, if you have the guts to pick them up. Especially for an entrepreneur and those willing to give up cushy well-paying jobs to strike out on their own. Like Porthos, Athos, and Aramis,

Why Reservation Wont Work

There have been enough discussions on the merits and demerits of reservation in central educational institutions. So far these institutions have been above caste- and religion-based quotas, except the legitimately mandated quotas for SCs/STs (Scheduled Castes / Scheduled Tribes). That the move for the new quota system for OBCs (Other Backward Classes) in such institutions is politically motivated is a well-known fact. It was taken without consulting those who have built up institutions of excellence in science and technology in the country or those who were charged with making India a knowledge superpower in the 21st century. This is unusual in a
