Race 1 Top rated 3yo maiden #5 CENDRILLON looks good to shed her maiden tag in this lower category. 

Race 2 Unbeaten #2 MELLOW FELLOW resumes after lengthy lay off. Has impressed with both his career victories and is taken to stay unbeaten. 

Race 3  #4 SWEET STONE close-up on her last effort.That looks the best form for this

keep an eye on demoted #3 WEST CAPE who can give this a shake. 

Race 4 #5 CAPTAIN COOK is better placed back on his home track fresh and looks unbeatable at this handicap. 

Race 5 #5 ARION had specking when ran a much improved race when resuming from lengthy lay-off. Will surely have only benefitted enormously for having had that run under his belt. 

Race 6 #2 DAKOTA DREAMER strips fitter for the first-up run but was beaten a long way. Can score with run under his belt.

#7 FLOURISHING MOVE has been consistent this time in work and looks ready for the this. An upset chance. 

Race 7 #6 DREAMZ UNLIMITED has been racing soundly since resuming and will appreciate the claim, the distance suits and he should be on the speed throughout.

1.50 #4 MONTE ROSA is yet to win a race although her last-start effort suggests her chance will come sooner rather than later. Gets in under the minimum after the claim and gets chance to clear her maiden rank. 

2.20 #6 DREAM VISION had a good win here last start. Harder here and up in class and distance but can't knock winning form. 

2.55 #8 GORGEOUS LADY has found a pretty strong race here but she won with authority on debut in a million race before the spell. Although running after long lay off she has plenty of scope for improvement and can continue with another win here. 

3.25 #4 TIGER raced on the speed and weakened when fourth over 2000m at last start. May have needed that run after the spell. The step up in journey looks a plus and rates as one of the main chances.

3.55 #8 APACHE GAL is still a maiden but has been solid in some decent form races in winters. Should strip fitter for last effort on resumption and can strike with massive switch in rider. 

#7 PRINCESS ROSE form is hard to fault at this distance and will give this a shake.

4.30 Bangalore challenger #3 ASTER ROSE is the one to beat here after her very strong finish in Bangalore summer Derby and will appreciate the mile trip. Strong fancy. 

5.05 #4 VIJAYS VISION is the one to keep an eye on making debut. The Colt is exciting in trials and sure to be well supported.

1.00 #6 ANGEL GIRL been building into this prep nicely & also looks ready to win fresh. 

1.30 #6 CRITICS CHOICE demolished the field in last start in December. Is fresh off a long break but has won 2/3 when resuming and this looks no tougher. Must go on top.

2.00 #4 VITESSE stays strongly and comes to this with a nice lung opener. The grey is a quality galloper not doing herself any favours recently in winters. Is the track and distance winner. Can strike with positive switch in rider. 

#2 JUNE drops in grade and this daughter of Alnasr Alwasheek can stay the trip and is the main danger. 

2.30 #2 GREEK GODDESS won with something in hand on debut. Looks talented and no reason she will not back it up here. Hard to beat with 5 kg claim. 

3.00 #8 MAKINO is making his debut in handicaps and can show to good effect after trying his luck in listed event at last start before the spell. The sprint journey looks a plus and rates as one of the main chances. Hard to beat at this weights. 

3.30 #4 APACHE had excuses last time when lost its right fore plate, was a smart  winner previously defeating Colombiana over same trip when up on the speed. Will strip fitter for last run and has good second up stats. Saves his best for when P. Trevor jumps on board. Strong fancy. 

At this feather weights #8 MELINDA is the dark un with sandesh in saddle. 

4.00 #6 TEMERITY comes off solid maiden win before the spell and although this a little hard can measure up if allowed to adopt similar pillar to post tactics again and if left alone. 

4.30 #9 BOUNTY QUEEN has been consistent this time in work and looks ready for the rise to this distance. Must respect with ace rider in saddle. 

5.00 Ignore her last run on resumption #7 RITZ has been in good form in winters and drops in grade making her one of the strong contenders in this.

1.30 #1 MARISKA who is the daughter of multi-classic winning filly Xisca doesn't need to improve much on her debut run. Perfectly suited out to seven furlong trip and should be able to earn her maiden bracket. 

2.00 Liked the tough run of #2 FEW DOLLARS MORE under inexperienced rider first-up and will be better from that outing. Looks winning chance with positive switch in saddle. 

2.30 Happy to put #1 HEATHER on top after her promising effort last out and the mile and a half should be perfect for her. 

3.00 #6 JARAMA has always shown some ability and battled on well in higher class races since debut. Drops in grade & looks poised to score with blinkers added for the first time. 

3.30 Lightly raced #1 JEANNINE  resumes with every chance of taking another step forward back on handicap level and is capable of calling the tune despite of conceding weights to youngsters. 

4.00 Absolutely respecting the debutant here in #9 MOTHERLAND that has displayed plenty of promise at the trials. She'll take some beating. 

4.30 #8 POET'S SONG was good on debut, led for a long time only to be swamped late. Strips that little bit fitter and with natural improvement might be tougher to catch. Hard to beat. 

5.00 #7 LORD GRANTHAM went close on debut and should be further improved. This is his chance to break through and the trip is perfect. Strong fancy. 

5.30 #4 SWARAJ  broke through for an overdue win last start. Goes up in grade and can repeat the dose. 

Well bred #9 GODSENT is racing well against superior horses and could be the surprise packet as he will get a perfect run from the good draw.

1.30 #12 FLYING PRINCE has not been far away in last both outings since resuming. Perfectly placed getting weight off his rivals and can break through. 

2.00 #5 ON TIME is resuming after long lay off, he showed promise earlier and his recent trials are impressive, he should be prominent throughout and ready to go fresh. 

2.30 Very consistent #5 COOL SPRINGS looks the best of the on pace chances. Gets in under the minimum after the claim and gets the chance to go one better in this weak set. 

Include #1 AMAZING CONNECTION who can run a big race fresh back in this grade. 

3.00 #2 ICE SPLENDOUR has been racing soundly in last season and will appreciate the claim, the distance suits and she should be on the speed throughout. 

3.30 #2 POSSIMPOSSIBLE has been in good form with recent runs in higher grade and drops significantly in grade making him the one to beat.

4.00 #9 STRIKING VIEW will be fitter for her last run and can get back to her previous consistent form here.

#8 HILLSBORO is the main danger with consistent form and race fitness although former has slight edge on relative handicap. 

4.30 #7 LA DONA has strong claims of compensation for her near-miss in The Fillies Trial Stakes ( Grade 1) earlier in June. Getting weight off her nearest rivals and hard to beat. 

5.00 #9 PROSERPINE steps up to this trip for the first time and her last race running style suggests she should run well over this trip. 

5.30 #2 PORT BLAIR back to his winning trip after being beaten last out over a sprint when in the market. Set to atone here. 

Down in grade #1 DEMANDING FORMAT's form is hard to fault at this distance and will give this a shake. An eachway prospect.

2.00 #8 BROWN BEAUTY was good 2nd on debut and can challenge here with natural improvement and Trevor on board.

2.30 Fairly weak looking race with #2 EVANDER the obvious pick on preparations & positive switch in rider. 

3.00 #1 CZAR RULE should cope with the step back to six furlongs and make full use of the drop in grade. Has won this same race two years back and must respect with Suraj on board. 

3.30 #7 MADADA made some ground late last start to place over six furlongs trip. One of the better chances at this distance. 

4.00 #4 WIND WONDER has struck old form at the right time and must be respected in this set. Doesn't need to find much to salute in the winners' stall this time.

Would not leave #6 COOL BABY out of chances with positive shoe change & 4 kg claim. 

4.30 Happy to put #2 REFERENT on top here after his excellent 2nd back from a break. Gets back after a short break and will need luck but if he gets that can win without surprise. 

5.00 #7 LITTLE MAN has the speed to drive through and lead these and no reason cannot make it two straight.

5.30 #1 FABULOUS TOUCH has acquitted herself well against Group opposition and gets the vote now she tackles the ordinary set.

2.30 Well bred #4 CAPE CANAVERAL is the one to beat in a fairly weak race. Looks well prepared and the filly may show improvement in her 2nd lifetime start. 

3.00 #3 YOKUMOKU just missed in town last start before the spell. Has won over a mile earlier and this looks a nice race for her on resumption. Ready to go fresh. 

3.30 Full bred to good type Sea Lord #4 LOCHINVAR is ready to win after summering in Bangalore. Extra furlong suits. 

4.00 Very consistent since resuming #6 NO POLITICS PLEASE showed speed to lead last time only to be picked off late due to top weight. Now up in class  and and if he can get right run up front may steal this from the gun alley at this low weights. 

4.30 Western India import #6 SHINING MELODY is resuming for new trainer at new track and since racing in better company in western India can take a hand in the finish if forward enough. Monitor betting. 

5.00 #8 AATISH admittedly proven costly starting hard in the market (both strong form races) in only two race starts. Will however find this more suitable (Handicap debut) and has looked to display plenty of ability at the trials. Expect Stable to have him ready to fire here fresh.

#7 DORIAN is a threat, keep an eye. 

1.40 Another open contest here but #3 ROYAL RAJKUMAR is the top pick due to his consistency before and after the spell. 

2.10 #8 CITY OF WONDERS strips fitter for the first-up run after a spell. Suited back in trip, he will be hard to hold out. Watch betting. 

2.45 #2 BEAUTY FLASH had a good forward run last start before falling back. Had won well here prior. Can bounce back. 

3.15 #5 GALIAT is racing well and could be the surprise packet as he is well placed on scales and appeals on handicap. An eachway prospect. 

3.45 Ignore his last run #1 WESTERN EXPRESS finished close 2nd from negative  draw at this trip earlier on resumption. Drawn well and has enough ability to take a hand in the finish here. 

#4 KHOSHGEL drops significantly in grade making him the main danger to top pick. Worth including in all pools. 

4.15 #2 COSTA DEL SOL returns from an absence, but hails from a yard adept at producing its runners ready to fire in such feature events and on preparations the Colt looks hard to beat. 

4.45 #5 SIR WALTER RALEIGH made good steady ground last start on resumption. Better for that outing and the extra distance suits. 

5.20 #5 ROI'S CRUISE will be fitter for his last run and can get back to his previous consistent form here.

2.00 Most are struggling for form which gives well bred #3 HOPE SPRINGS a chance to prove himself in this class. Gelded during the spell, he looks a totally different horse in morning trials and may strike. 

#10 TAREEF can run a good race fresh and can threaten at this weights. 

2.30 #5 NASCAR was badly interfered last start and that run can be ignored. Gets in under the minimum after the claim and has early speed which will stand her in good stead. Hard to catch.

3.00 #4 COSTA SMERALDA finished runner-up in a high-rating maiden last start before a spell. Would only need repeat that run to take this out and has been tuned up for a strong showing fresh. Hard to beat. 

#1 COVET ACTION has shaped up well and is preferred for the silver medal. 

3.30 #5 ARLENE made good steady ground on debut. Better for that outing and the extra distance suits. Strong fancy. 

4.00 #1 MAGNIFICINCE was unlucky not to win last out in winters. Drops to a suitable journey and can atone with blinkers off. 

#9 MAGICAL MEMORY will be the main danger after her promising debut win last time.

4.30 #10 GREY FLANNEL hasn't raced since making her debut in December but performed well in a recent trial to suggest she was ready to sprint well fresh.Must respect.

5.00 #5 MIND OF MADNESS was placed last time before the spell and gets in well after the claim. Will give them plenty to chase.

Keep an eye on #1 SEACRETS who had a good lung opener last out and can make an impact with only claimer in field. 

2.45 #4 KAROL has both the pedigree and the style of racing that suggests he’ll reach a new level now he attempts mile and a half.

3.15 Pune Derby winner #5 BULLRUN is a track specialist who has never lost on this track and will appreciate the drop back in trip. Appeals on handicap. 

3.45 #7 NEVER SAY NEVER ran some strong races in winters and is likely to be tuned up for a strong showing fresh. Must respect. 

4.15 #1 JACKNIFE takes a step down in grade after finishing 3rd in upper class last time and the class drop can do the trick.

Big watch is well bred 3yo #2 ROMAN GOLD fresh from the spell. Don't dismiss.

Don't leave #8 RAVELNATION who can run a big race fresh. An upset chance. 

2.00 #9 CAMPFIRE was placed at same trip last time out. That looks good form for this. Fair chance with rider repeating. 

2.30 #8 SHIVALIK GIRL is knocking at the doors. She looks suited by the step up in distance and is the one to beat. 

3.00 #9 TALLADEGA was badly interfered at the start last time out before finishing close 4th from last position over same trip and now with better run will figure. 

3.30 Ignore his last run in upper class #1 SUPER SUCCESS will appreciate the drop in grade. 

4.00 #5 COLDSTREAM has hit a purple patch of form winning successive races. Up in grade and nothing to suggest he cannot win again.

4.30 #6 BLUE BLAZER just didn't see out the trip last start. Previous good win puts him in with an excellent chance. Appeals on weights with the 3kg claim.

5.00 #7 IRISH PRINCE chasing the hat trick after wins at last both runs. Harder stepping up to grade but can't knock the winning form.

2.30 #3 GYPSY  is still learning but looks capable of a bold show in a wide-open event.

3.00 In this another whipless event #3 EMANCIPATION should cope with the step back to six furlongs and make full use of the drop in grade.

3.30 #2 DUKE OF CLARENCE is promising and can challenge if he goes on from his maiden win. Will appreciate the extra distance in this and rates highly.

4.00 #9 SIR MAJESTIC had excuses last time when he bumped into Albertino in last 100m. He was a smart winner previously when up on the speed and can go one better here. 

4.30 Up in grade #3 SWISS EAGLE is racing in fine form and there's nothing to suggest she can't go well again. 

5.00 #3 FIRE GLOW showed enough in his trial to suggest he has ability and this full bred to Abbey would not leave out on debut.

2.00 #1 TAYGETUS's run on debut wasn't a bad effort and with experience under his belt could improve considerably. Added blinkers may help. 

2.30 Well prepared #7 STAR FIRE looks ready to strike on debut against this moderate opposition. 

3.00 #1 LE HAVRE is back to right class and sure to give this a shake with 4 kg allowance. #6 FIRE SONG can bounce back after failing last start, runs well on mansoon track and may upset at this handicap. 

3.30 #5 STEVALENA is better placed back on her home track fresh after summering in Bangalore. Hard to beat. 

4.00 #4 MISTER MAJESTIC is yet to race this season but has early speed which will stand him in good stead. Hard to catch from innermost draw.

4.30 #1 RANI THEA led throughout but lost on the post in this class last start. Will burn forward again and prove tough to catch.

1.00 #6 HIT IT A BOMB resumes after an easy debut in Mumbai. The trials suggest she is in for an improved campaign and this half bred to Constatine should shed her maiden tag. 

1.30 #5 FEARLESS NADIA led throughout to win in the lower class last start on resumption. Will burn forward again and may prove tough to catch. 

2.00 #6 BOOK THIEF will enjoy the longer trip off a good lung opener and will be a different proposition here with Trevor on board. 

2.30 #6 CHARGING TIGRESS had a good win here last start. Harder here and steps up in grade but can't knock winning form. Strong fancy. 

3.00 #5 ADELINE has good potential and this full sister to Brahmachari can start her campaign with a win here.

1.30 Got abroad #8 POET looks the one to watch on debut. Comes from a leading yard and although little short on preparations but may just be bit too good for this weak maiden. Among experienced horses #6 RED REVENGE who has matched strides with better juveniles since debut can have a say in the finish if he is fully fit. Keep an eye. 

2.00 #GERMANICUS has acquitted himself  well against Group opposition and gets the vote now he tackles handicaps for the first time.

2.30 Had a good lung opener on resumption and with that run under her girth #4 AGELESS should go close to winning this. 

3.00 #4 KING CANYON  had the one start and could be open to improvement over this short scurry.

3.30 Dazzling multi Classic winner #1 MYRTLEWOOD looks outstanding in this field and has to just complete formalities. 

4.00 Ignore his last couple of runs in graded races #3 ARAK merits attention  for his impressive maiden win at this trip. Hard to beat. 

4.30 #4 ALMOST MAGICAL put in a fair run on debut and will appreciate this short distance. 

5.00 #7 ASPEN has shown some ability and battled on well in upper grade races in winters. Drops in grade and fair chance with a run under her belly.

2.00 Last start winner at mile trip #2 IRISH PRINCE is capable of defying penalty over this sprint trip. 

2.30 #6 SERENA BALLERINA finished runner-up in a million maiden last start when met interference approaching 100m. Would only need repeat that run to take this out. Hard to beat. 

3.00 #4 INDUSTRIALIST has found the line well at his last start. Hard to beat on that form with 100m more to travel. 

3.30 Ignore her last couple of run over a mile trip #8 PULL THE PLUG will appreciate this drop in trip and can score her maiden win off this lenient mark. 

4.00 May find a bit of value with #6 STAR FORMATION in this. Will be better over this trip and done nothing fresh in previous preps but recent trials suggests she may surprise these. 

4.30 #6 GOLDEN DIAMOND had excuses for the last-start defeat (BV) and had dominated a similar race to this prior. Can bounce back hard. 

5.00 #6 SPIRIT AND TRUTH won with something in hand last start. Up in grade and he only needs that form to win this. Strong fancy.

2.30 Tricky race to access with couple of first timers making their debut. Going with nicely bred #7 FJORD. This full sister to Victoria Harbour has the abilities to win on debut. Will roll forward from the innermost draw and prove tough to catch.

3.00 #5 TOWERING HEIGHTS finished faraway 3rd in a high-rating maiden last start. Has found the line well at his last two starts.Suited back in trip, he will be hard to hold out. 

3.30 Lightly raced #9 MONTENEGRO resumed with a strong finishing placing last start just going down here over a mile against his own age group. With weight relief from last start and drop in distance will be one of the major players in this. 

4.00 #11 LORD DARLINTON demolished the set last start on resumption to gain his long overdue maiden victory and this looks no tougher. Must go on top.

4.30 #6 ROYAL SCEPTRE was a bit stiff in the run last start and although jumping sharply in distance, has staying potential and should be suited by the likely solid tempo. Strong fancy. 

5.00 Plenty of money around for #12 ZAFRINA last start, maybe just didn't handle the heavy track (PNR 4.8). Obvious has plenty of ability. Hard to beat with rider repeating. 

5.30 #3 MISS ADLER has the excuses for her last failure ( pls see race day report). On class she stands tall in this set. Can bounce back. Big threat is up in grade #11 HAPPY HOURS.

2.30 #2 SANS PRIX just missed in town last out before a spell. Has good potential and may go better stepping down in distance. Can start her campaign with a win here.

3.00 Now back to his home track #1 RUSTLER looks the one to watch over here. Comes off an impressive performance in Bangalore and may just be bit too good for these.

3.30 Despite of losing 3-4 lengths at the start #4 ADZUKIS won impressively last out at this trip and class. Has to defy 5 kg penalty but can't knock winning form. Whilst #5 LANNER FALCON has been thereabouts lately and with this useful rider in saddle is the main threat to the top pick with the Stablemate #6 SPEEDY GONSALVES also in the fray but yet to win at this mansoon track. 

4.00 #6 SETAFLAME is a very consistent colt who won a higher grade race last start and looks hard to beat at this weights.

3.00 #6 AMERICAN AGATTA resumed on finishing on the placegetters heels last start. Slightly shorter trip here makes her a strong contender. 

3.30 #2 PARAMOUR chasing the hat trick after successive wins at Mumbai. Is capable of defying penalty and looks hard to beat again. 

4.00 #1 NIOBRARA likes to roll forward in his races and with 5 kg allowance he will be prominent for a long way. Can bounce back with blinkers off. 

4.30 #7 ROYAL MEWS looks the one to watch on debut. Comes off a solid preparations and may just be bit too good for these.

5.00 On relative handicap #7 ZAHRAZAN looks best of the lot and with 5 kg claim should roll away. 

5.30 Bred in purple #11 FROSTY comes out of a very strong race at debut before a spell. Will appreciate the rise in distance and looks the one to get past.

DAYS BEST : PARAMOUR 

BEST OF LUCK !!

2.00 #9 THUNDERSQUALL gets the blinkers for the first time and can make amends in this moderate set.

May find a bit of value with #2 SHINING ARMOUR in this. Will be better over further and done nothing fresh in previous preps but recent workouts indicates she may surprise these.

2.30 #1 CADILLAC SKY had no luck in last couple of starts. Finds similar company here. Out to this distance a definite chance. 

3.00 #5 PROSPERPINE won with something in hand on debut. Just didn't see out the trip last start. Back in the distance puts her in with an excellent chance. 

3.30 #10 AMORATE chasing the hat trick after successive wins in winters. Is a winner this track and distance and nothing to suggest she isn't a winning chance again even though resuming after long rest. 

#1 MAGICAL LIGHT is steadily improving and is the main danger to the top pick. Keep an eye.

4.00 #5 BOOKER JONES run in rno 60 close 2nd to Desert God was outstanding and he put in a sound effort over an unsuitable distance at latest start. Back in distance he has an undeniable chance in a tough event. 

4.30 #11 GOOD FORTUNE looked the winner last time only to tire late. Back in distance makes him tougher to get past. 

5.00  Extremely even race with at least seven winning chances of varying degrees. Down in grade #3 GOODWILL WARRIOR is the top pick. Has ideal barrier and should enjoy all the favours. No reason she will not be in finish. But it's hard to be too confident in such a tricky race. 

5.30 Not a lot depth here and well prepared DUKE OF NORFOLK may be able to step straight out of maiden grade and win here. 

DAYS BEST : GOOD FORTUNE 

BEST OF LUCK !!

2.30 #GALINO drops in class and will appreciate the rise to this distance. Has age in favour. Fair chance. 

3.00 #4 CAROLINA runner-up & third respectively in both runs to date. Still scope for improvement and gets the chance to go one better.

3.30 Lightly-raced #4 THE LIEUTENANT has shown more than enough ability to challenge these after his last-start win and should be hard to beat again here with extra fitness.

4.00 #3 SPORTING PLEASURE comes off an impressive maiden win here last start and the manner of his victory suggests the extra ground will suit. 

4.30 #3 SILVER LEGEND resuming after a long break. Is the winner this track and distance and on preparation looks ready to go fresh here. 

5.00 Back in this class #1 KAPALUA has a fair chance to strike in this weak set. 

5.30 Found the winner far better last start #5 SANS PEUR finds similar company here and will get her chance to win.

DAYS BEST : THE LIEUTENANT 

BEST OF LUCK !!

2.00 #6 DIXIE DIAMOND resumes on the back of a impressive win in winters over this distance and looks ready to go fresh here. 

2.30 #8 KANHA put in a fair run on resumption. Fitter here and extra distance suits. 

#7 LINEAGE was beaten more than 13 lengths last time but isn't without a hope here. Is the winner over this trip and Will give this a shake.

3.00 #6 FABIENNE had a trouble jumping cleanly last out when resuming. Has the blinkers on for this and should be suited over this trip.

3.30 #4 OPHION was impressive winning here last start in winters and has scope for further improvement. Up in grade and ready to go fresh here. Hard to beat. 

4.00 The Vijay Singh stable holds the key and the betting likely to tell the tale.

Siding with #1 EVESHAM that appears to map ideally sitting just off the pace. Does appear well placed here on best form and does present as the ideal race to start his mansoon campaign.

4.30 It's hard to go past #10 XOTICA. Has demolished rivals at his past two starts and now with rise in grade the picket fence should continue for this lightly raced still unexposed filly. 

5.00 After listless runs in winter #4 RANI THEA has been brought down significantly to a winning mark. Twice winner over this trip and this mansoon track. Hence chances enhanced on this track.An eachway prospect if you like. 

DAYS BEST: OPHION

BEST OF LUCK !!
