BANGALORE 2000 GUINESS 14/12/2013


Hello Friends,
Ten well bred colts & geldings are competing in the Bangalore 2000 Guiness.Some are proven milers and some are yet to run over a mile trip.Out of which few have good chance to lift the trophy against remaining having slim chance,unless some one puts a brave effort to beat the main contenders.Here is my brief explanation and statistics of each contestant.
1] ALWAYS REMEMBERING (PLACERVILLE (USA)-TAMMIES TUNE(USA))
Still a maiden out of his two career starts,finished last 17 3/4 length behind the winner in his last start.Could not understand why the trainer has entered this horse at first.Anyways ignorable over here.

2] AMBITIOUS REWARD ( MULTIDIMENSIONAL (IRE)-STAR PERFECTION by STEINBECK[USA] OUT OF SANTORINI STAR)
Out of his six career starts Ambitious Reward has one thrice at 1200,1100 & 1400 respectively.In his last start over 1400m he won impressively by 2 lengths beating Diamond Quest,Kafka,Coolmore,Socrates to name a few.Only once ran over a mile trip in Hyderabad Colts Trial Stakes(sept 1,2013)  where he finished last by almost 20 lengths behind the winner Acclaimed.

3] INVINCIBLE PRINCE (INVINCIBLE SPIRIT -ROSSA DI RUGIADA(IRE) BY COLLEGE CHAPEL[GB] OUT OF KINNINCHA[FR]) 
Invincible Prince won twice and placed once from his 5 career starts.His last victory over 1400m was his best one where he made it look very easy against Whispering Gallery,Alfons De Borja,Beauty Is Truth etc, and confirmed that he is a top class horse with a bright future.

4] NABISCO (SENURE(USA) -IBERIAN  by Placerville[USA], out of
 Cambridge Ball[IRE], by Royal Academy, out of Boat Race, by Seattle Slew, out of Rosa Mundi, by
 Secretariat. [SIMON’S SHOES]
 IBERIAN won 5 races at 3 and 4 (1000 m. to 1200 m.),
Nabisco has won four races out of his five career starts,one over 1200m and three over 1400m which suggests that
he is a very good middle distance horse.His only run over a mile was in Mysore 2000 Guiness where he finished faraway seventh to Southern Emperor on soft going.

5] ROCK WITH U (NOVERRE(USA)-NOBLE EXCELLENCY by Alnasr Alwasheek out of Spectacular Blood by Placerville)
Rock With u has won five races out seven career starts,four over 1200m and one over 1400m.Now running for the first time a mile trip and his pedigree suggests he won't find any difficulty in staying over this distance.

6] SOUTHERN EMPEROR (PLACERVILLE (USA)-MYSTIC DANCER by Alnasr Alwasheek[GB], out of Mystic Memory, by Malvado[CAN], out of Divine Light, by Riyahi[IRE],
 out of Charenzaccio[FR], by Lorenzaccio. [SCHIAPARELLI]
 MYSTIC DANCER won 1 race at 3 (1200 m.),
The Impeccable Mysore 2000 Guiness and Derby Winner Southern Emperor is yet to lose a mile trip and is raring and fit to go and is the one,who all have to beat over here.

7] SOVEREIGN RULE (BURDEN OF PROOF(IRE) -QUEEN'S RULE(IND) by Riyahi out of Another Spirit by Malvado (CAN),
His dam Queens Rule won 1 race,and placed 3rd in Bangalore Oaks (Gr 1) is dam of SADDLE UP winner of 14 races in India,Malaysia and Singapore which includes Bangalore Derby,McDowell Indian St.Leger,Bangalore 2000 Guiness,Bangalore St.Leger,A.C.Ardeshir Trophy,Queen Elizabeth II Cup,Tunku Gold Cup and placed second in Indian Invitation Cup,The Stayers Cup,etc.
Lightly raced Sovereign Rule is an extensively bred, has won two races out of three career starts both over seven furlongs.His last victory confirmed an opinion that he is definitely headed towards the classics and with(probably)  Suraj Nareddu up will be a force to reckon over here and will be a strong contender over here.

8] SUPREME REGIME (MULTIDIMENSIONAL (IRE)-SILVER PRINT by Steinbeck out of Silver City(IND) by RAZEEN.)
Supreme Regime won twice over 1400m from nine career starts,will be right there if stablemate Southern Emperor falters.

9] TRIUMPHANT (HOLY ROMAN EMPEROR(IRE)-ALWAYSINBLOOM[USA] by Unbridled, out of Evening Primrose, by Dayjur, out of Water Lily, by Riverman, out of First Bloom,
 by Primera. [SALAMANDRA]
 ALWAYSINBLOOM[USA] won 1 race at 4 (1600+ m.),
Triumphant won one race over 1200m out of seven career starts,placed twice second over 1200m & 1400m respectively and twice third over 1100m & 1400m respectively.His faraway second to Sovereign Rule in his last start is so far his currently best run.

10] TURF STRIKER (SEDGEFIELD(USA)-GERI  by Housamix, out of Walk on
 Turf[FR], by Bikala, out of Walk On Air, by Cure the Blues, out of Warsaw, by Bon Mot. [FLITTERS]
GERI dam of
STYLISH BAY (b g 2004 by Hymn[IRE]), 6 wins at 3 and 4 (1200 m. to 1600 m.),
               GRAND STAND (b f 2005 by Hymn[IRE]), 1 win at 3 (1400 m.),
Turf Striker is winner of three races over 1200m,1400m & 1600m respectively out of nine career starts.His close second to Alandair in Bangalore Summer Derby is so far is his best run before going in setback.His last victory over a mile proved to be much too strong for his class I opponents.The manner in which he regained his form shows he is on target to run well over here and is one of the main contender over here.

GOOD LUCK
