BANGALORE 1000 GUINESS 30/11/2013

RACE 1] BLIZZARD OF OZ: In his last start drifted out in the last 300 M,else could have won.Has been given another chance with the rider repeating.Now promoted,Should win.

RACE 2] NESTO: On the basis of pedigree,this full brother to Quick Fire should run a good race.

RACE 3] RAKSHITA: After finishing a good 5th in her last run,now demoted to lower class with change of jockey and shoes,should be considered to win over here.

RACE 4] SUPER SILVER: Tried start to finish in his last start over 1400 M ,now promoted and may win start to finish  under this useful allowance rider with 200 M less to travel.

RACE 5] SEE BRIGHT: Warmed up too late and covered lot of ground to finish close 3rd in her last start under normal rider.Now 200 M more to run and a powerful rider astride has a bright chance with a run under her belt.

RACE 6] DIAMONITE: Should be able to beat both the 3 yrs old in the field as they don't inspire much for a win.

RACE 7] MARIINSKY: Looks like a runaway winner in this field.

RACE 8] SUPREME: In her last start she was the only one who showed some intent in the closing stage of the race.Should run a bold race.

RACE 9] NATURAL VIEW

Good Luck.

BANGALORE 1000 GUINESS

Hello Friends,
BANGALORE 1000 GUINESS consists a small field of seven runners and i think almost everybody has a good chance to score over each other.Here is my brief explanation and stastics of each contestant.

1]ALCAZABA [BURDEN OF PROOF-ALHAMBRAH
by Tejano[USA], out of Arabian Rose, by Razeen]
Alhambrah did not race.
Alcazaba raced 5 times,won thrice 1100/1200/1400 M respectively,
and Placed once in 1400 M where she was beaten by Lad Star at the post.
She finished 4th to Supreme Regime by 2 and a 3/4 length in Bangalore Summer Million (Gr 3) 1600 M.
As she is fit and fine and is in good form should be a main contender over here.

2]BEAUTY IS TRUTH [TEJANO(USA)-CAPRESE  by Burden of Proof[IRE], out of Cape Star, by Malvado[CAN]
Caprese won 7 races at 3 and 4 (1200 m. to 1400 m.), ` 28,05,721 and placed incl. 2nd in Chief
    Minister’s Cup, Gr.3, 3rd in Fillies’ Trial Stakes, Gr.1, Bangalore 1000 Guineas, Gr.2, Karnataka
    Racehorse Owners’ Association Mysore 1000 Guineas, Gr.3, 4th in Karnataka Juvenile Million,
   Gr.2, etc
Beauty Is Truth is the only  maiden participant in this field.Out of her ten career starts
she has placed thrice second and once third.Her close second to Amelia in The Fillies Championship Stakes
(Gr I) 1600 M where she finished ahead of one of the best horses in the fray like Starry Eyes,Southern Sky,Striking,Apparition,Mariinsky etc. to name a few is her best run so far.If generates that kind of a run she can upset in this lot.

3]DUMA [PHOENIX TOWER(USA)-FIRE CREST by Southern Halo, out of Steal a Kiss[USA], by Graustark.]
Firecrest won 4 races at 4 (1400 m. to 2200 m.), ` 8,41,549 and placed incl. 3rd in Golconda
    St. Leger, Gr.2, Nizam’s Gold Cup, Gr.3, etc; dam of:
    FIRED UP (ch g 2004 by Placerville[USA]), 2 wins at 3 and 4 (1200 m. and 1600 m.)
Out of her 6 starts DUMA has won 4 times,once in 1100 M and thrice in 1200 M and her all wins have come at Mysore.Only once tried over a mile trip where she was last.Her pedigree suggests she can easily stay a mile trip.Now massive switch of Jockey to Jimmy Fortune(can he change her fortune?) should run a bold race.  

4]ISN'T SHE SPECIAL [ACE(IRE)-RAIN SPLASHER by Placerville(USA),out of Rasant(CAN),by Assert(IRE).]
Out of 5 runs she have won twice 1200 M & 1600 M ie.Mysore 1000 Guiness,and once placed closed second on her debut.
Should be a main contender to beat Mariinsky.

5]KETURAH [BURDEN OF PROOF(IRE) -  ASTRODANCE by Bold Russian[GB], out of Scaglietti, by Everyday II*, out of Turf Hawk.]
ASTRODANCE won 3 races at 3 (1100 m. to 2400 m.),incl. Usha Stud Calcutta Oaks,
   Gr.3 and placed 3rd in Queen Elizabeth II Cup, Gr.3, 4th in Wills Calcutta Derby Stakes, Gr.1, etc;
Keturah ran eight races,won four times,once at 1200 M & thrice at 1400 M.Her last victory at Mysore just 15 days back was impressive where she won by over 9 lengths,but that was in mediocre company as over here she is facing some of the genuine milers.

6]MARIINSKY [BURDEN OF PROOF(IRE) -  SABRE DANCE by Bold Russian[GB], out of Dancing Dissident, by Everyday II*]
SABRE DANCE won 3 races at 2 to 4 (1100 m. to 2400 m.),incl. Castrol Calcutta Oaks, Gr.3, etc; dam of:
Scimitar (ch g 2004 by Burden of Proof[IRE]), 4 wins at 2 to 6 (1200 m. to 2000 m.),
and placed incl. 3rd in Golconda 2000 Guineas, Gr.2, 4th in Vijay Textiles Golconda
 Derby Stakes, Gr.1, etc.
FLEETING ARROW (b c 2005 by Burden of Proof[IRE]), 7 wins at 3 (1400 m. to 1600 m.),
 incl. Colts’ Trial Stakes, Gr.1, Harvins Bangalore 2000 Guineas, Gr.2, Heeroji Lad
 Bangalore Juvenile Million, Gr.3 and placed 3rd in Chief Justice’s Cup, Gr.3, 4th in Poonawalla
 Bangalore Derby, Gr.1, Johnnie Walker Gold Label Indian 2000 Guineas, Gr.1, etc.

Out of her 9 career starts, Mariinsky won 4 races,twice at 1200 M and twice at 1400,Incl.Calcutta
Fillies Trial Stakes.For the first time in her carrier,this Shroff trained fillie is going over a mile trip
(excuding her Bangalore Derby run),and her pedigree suggests that the mile trip will suit her and is the horse
everyone have to beat.

7]WHISPERING GALLERY [BACHELOR DUKE -  INTELLECTUAL[GB] by Dubai Destination, out of
 In the Groove, by Night Shift, out of Pine Ridge] 
Intellectual did not race.
But her Sire Bachelor Duke was a LEADING NZ FIRST SEASON SIRE 2008/09
• Gr.1 CLASSIC WINNER at three years
• Closely related to SIRE LEGENDS – NUREYEV, SADLER’S WELLS, FAIRY KING & EL CONDA PASA.
Whispering Gallery ran three races,(excluding a race in which she was disqualified for banned substance),out of which she won one at 1400 M and placed once.On basis of her pedigree she comes into a classic contention and should run a good race.

Regards.

RACE 3] My Selections:

Infatuation:In her last start chased the winner hopelessly and finished second by eight and a half lengths.May improve over here.
Brigadier: In his last start saw him improving to finish 6th leisurely.Tracking well and,now jockey changed to S.John should run a bold race.

Sunday 24 November 2013

MUMBAI 24/11/2013

Hello FRIENDS,

Interesting card framed for Sunday races.
Here are my only choices with brief  explanation.

RACE 1] NATIONAL PRIDE: Ran 3 races in Pune all over a short scurry,placed 4th,3rd & 8th respectively.Now running over 6 furlongs trip on her favourite Mumbai track where she won her both career starts in January this year over same distance she is running today.Inspite of concedeing weight she may win with allowance jockey astride.

RACE 2] VENUS MARINA: Finished a good third to Dreams Of Yoy in her last start over a mile.
Now working extremely well and only 3 yr old other than First And Only One in this field and running over identical distance (should relish the extra furlong) looks a strong contender.

RACE 3] ANALEAH: From champion trainers yard, was well beaten in her last start,should make amends as I think she would like this 7 furlongs trip.

RACE 4] I think this race should end up between CELTIC KING and DYNAMO .The former showed a mark improvement when he finished good third to JEREMIAH in pune derby.And the later who finished third in all his career starts had a disappointing pune campaign.Now reversely placed to  KEUKENHOF has a very good handicap chance.

RACE 5] DEJA VU: He too had a very disappointing pune season,and now returning back on his favourite track,has worked extremey well,looks fit and now with his winning jockey astride has a realistic chance to wipe all his pune memories by winning this race.

RACE 6] CIRCLE OF LIFE: Pune derby runner up,now running with bottom weight, should be a leading fancy and is the strong contender over here.

RACE 7] RAVELLO: Ran a very good race against Be Safe in pune,on basis of that effort  this half brother to Placerville Glory has a good chance to topple over rest of the field.

RACE 8] ZOE: In her last start she finished a close second to Yardstick where she was feebly handled by the rider.If she reproduces that run and now with a better rider may run a good race.

DAYS BEST: CIRCLE OF LIFE
DOUBLE: VENUS MARINA
                  DEJA VU
UPSET: NATIONAL PRIDE

GOOD LUCK!
 

Friday 22 November 2013

BANGALORE FRIDAY 22/11/2013.

Hello FRIENDS,
An attractive card of 8 races have been framed for tomorrow.
 
RACE 1] Horses rated 20-45 (1400m).
There are five horses in this field which I think comes into contention for the finish.Seven Of Hearts ran good 4th against Vission Misssion and has been tracking well,may only place as win looks little difficult.Aashikara who failed to make an impression when finished more than 9 length behind Love My Life in his last start is prepared well and is one of the main contender over here.Dofantasy had an forgettable summer season which shold be ignored as he is tracking very well with class II horse,and this trainer/jockey combo may strike again.Ungoogleable's  run in Race no 52 Bangalore summer was very impressive where he finished third to Southern Sky and now for the first time is getting a good rider and positive change in shoe, is also tracking excellent with the same rider,has a very good chance to win.Glamour Boy now on promotion with positive rider astride but negative change of shoes?one could not understand trainers intent.
 
My Selections: UNGOOGLEABLE, DOFANTASY, AASHIKARA.
My Choice: UNGOOGLIABLE for win.DOFANTASY for upset/place.
 
RACE 2] Terms Maiden 2 yrs horse only.(1200).
One should always avoid such race from betting point of view,Bold Majesty finished good second to Jersey Bride in current Bangalore season,now should be a different proposition with an educational run under his belt and 100m more to travel should win here but the odds would be very low.
 
My Selections: BOLD MAJESTY, BLITZSCHNELLE, SAIRANA.
My Choice: BOLD MAJESTY for win.(If odds over even).
 
RACE 3] Horses rated 00-25,4 yrs &over.(1400m).
SKIP
 
My Selections: MANY WISHES, SILVER STREET, MYSTIC LAVENDERS.
 
RACE 4] Horses rated 40-65.(1600m).
After participating in Bangalore 2000G & Derby Agostini is returning back to Handicap race would be another on money favourite And is running after more than 3 months gap..Regal Boast won very impressively in his last start,was never extended and won with more reserve in his hand,must win again with 200m more to run which should suit him.Guts and Glory is only a place prospect.Artorius is the horse who could upset in this field as this trainer/jockey combo has done this recently in more than couple of occasions.
Aceempressjessie has to prove double class which seems difficult in this field.
 
My Selections: REGAL BOAST, AUGOSTINI, ARTORIUS.
My Choice: REGAL BOAST for win. ARTORIUS for upset(small hedge).
 
RACE 5] Horses rated 60 & above,4 yrs old & over.(1400m).
Valahak is tracking very good with same rider who is astride ,coming down in class and working well with same jockey who is riding today will be in contention and may win in this company.One Time Magic in his last start led till 800,then ran second entering the straight ,faded out without showing any intent.Now major switch in jockey and on basis on his last run must be in contention but one cant understand why the trainer has opted for steel shoes as this trainer always goes with aluminium shoes whenever his horse is on job especially with Suraj Narredu astride,this is the only prospect that is confusing me.Stellar Ambition is only a place prospect.Violent Storm when finished close third against I Say in his last start looked like he had not put cent percent effort ,is now running on promotion and is tracked agter that run should also run a good race.
 
My Selection: VALAHAK, VIOLENT STORM, ONE TIME MAGIC.
My Choice: VALAHAK for win.   
 
RACE 6] Horses rated 80 and above.(1600m).
Mountain Range is in irresistible form but with such a stiff handicap and coming back to a mile distance which probably may not suit him now after running in long distance trips.Ratham lost as a favourite in her start at Mysore where she ran after lay off and may have needed that run.Now promotedand tracking very good with same rider astride has a very good chance to win with 200m more to run.Turf Striker is the only 3 yr old in this field and is now on promotion facing genuine class I company at this handicap has a very good chance to win after forgettable Mysore season. 
 
My Selections: TURF STRIKER, RATHAM, MOUNTAIN RANGE.
My Choice: TURF STRIKER for win.
 
RACE 7] Horses rated 20-45,4 yrs & over.(1200m).
My Selections: PRESIDENTS RULE: In his last run tried start to finish attempt but was gradually outpaced by Influencs midway entering the straight.Now 200m less to travel & in his age group may win here.
ISLE OF FIRE: Ignore her last run where she sprinted ahead,led till turn then failed to quicken,had no track work may try start to finish in same distance.
NOCTURNAL HUNTER: May place.
 
My Choice:: PRESIDENTS RULE for win.ASTONISHING for upset.
 
RACE 8] Horses rated 20-45.(1400m).
My Selections: ABSOLUTE RED, AMAZONAS, MANTRA.
My Choice: ABSOLUTE RED for win.
 
DAY'S BEST: PRESIDENTS RULE

contender here with Chase The Son (in form trainer) and Jersey Shore whose last run on soft going
should be ignored And dont underestimate Zultanite who is very much active on tracks should be also in fighting line.But I think JERSEY SHORE should win this race as he is running in a right distance,
 is the only 3 yr old and is having advantage of a run.

MYSORE 13/11/2013

MYSORE 13/11/2013

First day of Mysore winter season,unlike Mumbai or Bangalore to predict the winner in Mysore is not an easy job,as many times the horse is backed at the race time and wins without any tracks or with mediocre jockey astride.
Hope some of the choices may oblige either by winning or placing.

RACE 1] For maiden Indian Horses 2 YRS Only.
                Always a difficult task to choose a winner in such field were each of them is showing
                good track work,in such scenario one should always prefer eldest of the lot,obviosly
      .  .      after looking conditions of the horse in paddock(especially 2 yrs)
               .My selections DANCING TABLEAUX/RISING ROMEO/SILVER OAK
                My choice DANCING TABLEAUX for win
RACE 2] Race for horses rated 00 to 25 (1400 m)
GOLDEN STEPS :Very good spurt on 5/11 with same jockey astride 
May upset.
SMALL CRUISE: Had a good forward run in race no 118 finished close 6th to Belle Etoile 
CATWALK QUEEN:Handicap is stiff but pedigree suggests extended trip may suit her.
GOLDEN TIME: Very good on tracks ,extended distance will suit.
YOUNG GALLANT: Good on tracks.Should place.

My Selection SMALL CRUISE/GOLDEN TIME/CATWALK QUEEN
My choice SMALL CRUISE for win
Upset GOLDEN STEPS
