Ten Sports will air the Poonawalla Breeders' Multimillion horse race on 16 February at 3:30 pm with a repeat on 17 February at 3 pm.

The Poonawalla Breeders' Multimillion, a produce race three years old and run over a distance of 1400 meters, is a weight for age affair giving an equal chance to all juveniles. The seven-furlong race, run on the lines of the Cartier Million (Ireland) and Magic Million (Australia), will determine 'The Champion three year old' in the country. The race invites participation from leading jockeys from racing circuits in India and abroad.

The stake offered at the Poonalwalla Breeders' Multimillion is probably the biggest in India at Rs 60 lakhs. The concept of the race was taken from a revolutionary new idea that originated in Australia which introduced a Million Race for juveniles and it became so popular there that it soon spread all over the world. After a few years of initial success, most of the newly introduced Millions as they were called began to wane in interest, but the Poonawalla Breeders Million has grown steadily each year.

Mumbai Horse Racing on the channel features commentators like Cyrus Madan, one of the most respected figures in Indian horse racing, with Anisha Sodhi, a former Show Jumping champion along with host Keith Pereira.
