BANGALORE OPENING DAY 19/5/2018
Race 1
PELUCHE should be all the wiser for the experience gained in winters and could play a major role, though preference is instead for still unexposed SUN POWER who is bred for speed and looks well prepared for the opening event. KARTOOS and TOUCH YOUR DESTINY can fight it out for the places.
TOP PICK #5 SUN POWER
Race 2
The drop out of terms maiden company can see ANNALEASE past the post in this weak set. Note the massive switch in rider.
FREE PORT, GOLDEN OPINION and last start winner GRUMPTION also have some form which gives them bits and pieces of chances.
TOP PICK #1 ANNALEASE
Race 3
VOLATALITY looked on good terms with herself when romping to a wide-margin maiden success in winters and rates the one to beat again here. GRECIAN LIGHT and ROSEBROOK both make the shortlist for medals.
TOP PICK #1 VOLATILITY
Race 4
Multi-classic winner KANGRA accounted for a decent field when winning invitation cup at Kolkata earlier in the March and she remains the one to beat here despite dropping sharply in distance. TUTANKHAMUN has not won at this track since his maiden victory on debut but he has a good chance based on the pick of his form over this trip. Western India challenger YOUR ROYAL MAJESTY is a game galloper even at this age and merits plenty of respect. SHAMAN has always won while resuming. Has low weights and distance suits. Keep safe. While SMILE STONE and AMOROUS WHITE are others to note.
TOP PICK #3 TUTANKHAMUN
Race 5
SIDE WINDER drops in grade and can speed up. 4kg claim helps. RUM RUNNER was in tremendous form last prep winning 2/3 and was flying when beaten narrowly last start, he is at his best when fresh. ZAFRAN is slowly coming to form and is worth considering closely, handicap favours. TZAR has low weights and will be tried while consistent REGAL MUSIC is the pick of the remainder.
TOP PICK #2 RUM RUNNER
WATCH OUT FOR #7 ZAFRAN
Race 6
BERGAMOT left a favourable impression when winning over C&D last time and is the one expected to put up most resistance. LAND OF LIBERTY was not disgraced as a favourite and is likely to be in the shake-up again. BAROG and RHAPSODYEIN QUEEN can fight it out for the places.
TOP PICK #1 BERGAMOT
Race 7
A tricky race to close the card but the marginal preference is for top weighted debutant DONTBREAKTHERULES.
RED GALILEO who has been given held back runs to date rates a bigger danger. Watch betting. PRINCESS HOLLY, PINK SMILE and SHIVALIK BOY are others who can be expected to go well.
TOP PICK #1 DONTBREAKTHERULES
UPSET #2 RED GALILEO
DAYS BEST (6-1) BERGAMOT
ALL THE BEST ..!!
