Mumbai 17/1/2016.

1- CAPTAIN ABDON disappointed last start but won well prior to that, he should be handy throughout from the good gate with positive switch in saddle.

2-Looks right race for DANCING PRETTY to break maiden status. Form good enough and deserves a win.

4-COLEY comes off a tough race in upper class last start. Looks well placed back to this class and can win.

5-SHADOWFAX should have won on this track last start and he gets chance to make amends.

6- Here I'm going with GESTAPO. He's by this great stallion MASTERCRAFTSMAN, who is from the family of Champion North  sires Broad Brush & Capote. And is Europe′s Champion first crop sire of 2013, second crop sire of 2014 & third crop sire of 2015.Though short of experience GESTAPO has impressed in both of his victories & expected to run a bold race.


7-CAIELIN finished an eye-catching fourth on debut and he may love the longer trip so should be one to beat. 

8-EARL GREY is a mare in form and despite of class penalty hard to go past her in this field. 

9-Ready to peak. Last start excellent and the way LADISLAUS has worked since suggests he has improved & looks too good to shed his maiden tag. 

10- Siding with VALENTINO that appears to map ideally sitting just off leaders. Does appear well placed here on best form and does present as the ideal race to break through for much overdue win.
