Hello FRIENDS,
Long but interesting card framed for pre-derby day Mumbai races.
My selections and choices are as under.
RACE 1]
MY SELECTIONS:
GIANT LUCK: Finished good fourth to Wentworth in his penultimate start.Is tracking well and has chance to improve over this trip.
PAMUSHANA: Showed some spark towards finish in her debut start over 1200m ,now 200m more to travel and jockey changed to Zervan should be a strong contender.But odds may be very low to bet confidently on a maiden horse.
TEMPTEST: Now running over right distance after trying over sprints till now,suggesting this galloping trip may suit her running style better.Should not be ignored over this trip.
MY CHOICE: GIANT LUCK for win.
RACE 2]
MY SELECTIONS:
ZOOM ZOOM: Is in good form and can complete hatrick of wins.But stiff penalty may make it tough.
ACE ANGEL FIRE: Running first time in this season,possibly may need this run.
ANALEAH: Failed twice as a favourite not living upto punters expectations.Now drops back in trip over six furlongs.should oblige now by winning in this ordinary field.
SHEER ROMANCE: May best place.
ALECTO: Is nicely bred and now as he has tasted success may try to repeat upon promotion.
MY CHOICE: ANALEAH for win.
RACE 3]
MY SELECTIONS:
DIVINE SOLITAIRE: Had a good lung opener in his last start in higher class.Now demoted to lower class with rider changed to Trevor is the dark horse over here.
PATRIOTIC: Won readily in his last start,working extremely well since than,now on promotion and 200m more to travel,should relish this exrta furlong and is the strong contender in this field.
SAMBA WARRIOR: Made a pleasing debutb while finishing an excellent 2nd over this same trip.Working well since than and should run a bold race.
MY CHOICE: PATRIOTIC for win.
RACE 4]
MY SELECTIONS:
THREE ROSES: In her last start she finished 2nd behind speedy Rajsamman like a rocket from the rear.But is not the most reliable one,can spring a surprise if reproduces that last effort.
BETHLEHEM: Is still unexposed may make a bold bid to repeat under a penalty but outer draw could make her task a bit difficult.
EL WONDER: In fine form at present,went down narrowly to a 3 yr old in her last start.
Looks very fit and now back to her winning trip should be the strong contender over here.
PEPE SENIOR: Now looks ready too strike and may upset.
PLAN B: Does not impress for win,may at best place on low handicap.
MY CHOICE: THREE ROSES for Eachway.
RACE 5]
MY SELECTIONS:
ALBUURZ: 3rd to Magic star over same trip,now running in 5 yrs and over race and has a bright chance to succeed before retiring.
WIND CRAFT: Loos fit and well and possesses good speed will try his best to gain a victory.
BLIND DATE: Usually very consistent,always on board since her last four starts but weakens after the bend.May at best place.
SAN RAFAEL,PALACE GIRL,NICANOR are place contenders.
MY CHOICE: ALBUURZ for win.
RACE 6]
MY SELECTIONS:
SPLENDID LIGHT: In her last start she finished good second with a rookie astride when she was injudiciously ridden now with better rider on board she looks a leading fancy now.
ZOLTAN: Ran a good race after a 2 months break while finishing second over this same trip,may have possibly needed that run and can make amends now.
PENNY LANE:Has done nothing suggestive so far,May at best place.
MY CHOICE: SPLENDID LIGHT for win.
RACE 7]
MY SELECTIONS:
GREAT EXPECTATIONS: Had a good educative outing while finishing good third on debut.
Working extremely good since than and should be a leading contender now.
ARTISTE: Is a minor place contender.
SHIVALIK BREEZE: Deserves a following after finishing fair third on debut and should improve on that performance.
SHIVALIK SKIES: Debutant,who is blazing the tracks in her morning trials should run a bold race with a top jockey astride.
MY CHOICES: SHIVALIK SKIES for win.
RACE 8]
MY SELECTIONS:
SILVER STREAK: Distance may be sharp for him,may place.
DANCING PRANCES: Is a high class sprinter,looks pink in condition and should be a leading fancy to win over here.
AMELIA: A multi classic winner now drops in trip after getting squeezed in 1000G when she was looking good.Given time to recover from that and now with a feather weight here looks a big danger to all if she is at her best.
MY CHOICE: AMELIA for win.
RACE 9]
MY SELECTIONS:
BE SAFE: Already proved to be one of the best juveniles at present.Now giving away weight to other 3 yrs old.Looks to be strong contender over here.
SCHIAVONE: This bangalore based filly made an impressive debut while recording an exciting victoy.This full sister to Mariinsky displayed exceptional abilities and is sure to relish this exrended trip.
TOP COMMANDER: Went down narrowly to Tiger Tops over this same trip on debut.Should improve further on that run and has been tracking well since than.Has a good chance over here on handicap.
MY CHOICE: SCHIAVONE win/place.
