BANGALORE RACES
1. SCINTILLATING STYLE has run with better horses, the rider does not give much confidence. COMMAND PERFORMANCE has been well prepared, should place under an allowance jockey. ROYAL FLYNN appears a bit improved in works. ASPIRING SEVEN may place again.
COMMAND PERFORMANCE-ROYAL FLYNN-SCINTILLATING STYLE
2. ACTION HERO could not get up in time in his last run over 1600m, may run well in the scurry.. LAGO VISTA impressed in gates. DAWSON’S CREEK has been well prepared, he placed under this jockey in Mysore. DON’S DELIGHT was an easy 4th , can improve as the handicap is in favor.
DON’S DELIGHT-ACTION HERO-DAWSON’S CREEK
3. SONTONG ETOILE has been impressive in tracks. MYSTIFIED was a close 3rd to WELCOME BACK who ran 2nd in Oaks, the distance & handicap are in favor. VAN DER STAR is slowly getting into form, may not like the distance. DOUBLE ELITE is working well, will try to take advantage of the low weights.
MYSTICAL-DOUBLE ELITE
4. MARK OF GIBRALTOR won as a good type, the preparation puts him in top spot. ALCMENE is showing out in tracks ,will give a fight.

5. CARABINNERI has not been allowed to run true to his potential, can upset. RENASCENT is continuously on tracks since last few months, the mock race must have brought her on. MUCHO runs best when fresh, may place. PRET A PORTE is shining in tracks , running here against own stable mate shows the crooked intent of the connections for gaining better rates .MADAM RICH was an impressive winner in lower class.
RENASCENT-CARABINNERI-MUCHO
6. LADY BANKS is bred for speed, the preparation is suggestive. BLUSHING BEAM was an uninterested 5th , the pedigree is good, but it belongs to the favorite’s owner. SPLENDID POWER should improve on her last run. LITTLE SPLENDOUR has initial speed to get on board.
LADY BANKS-SPLENDID POWER-LITTLE SPLENDOUR
7. FREE MASON is winner of a race who is working well. CRACKER JACK ran lame last time, appears fit now. LIGHTNING BLUES placed in all the last five runs, looks like doing it again as the distance is more in favor now. SHENANDOAH lost as a favorite, as is the case with all from her trainer’s stables, may place as the tracks are good. ROYAL HERO is notable in works.

- REALISTIC LOOK AT THE PERFORMANCE OF FRESHMAN SIRES 1. Four freshman sires had their crop racing in the country in the racing year 2018-19 . CORPORATE JUNGLE(USA) 2008 BY GIANTS CAUSEWAY( HAZARA STUD) LEITIR MOR (IRE) 2010 BY HOLY ROMAN EMPEROR(POONAWALLA STUD) SPEAKING OF WHICH(IRE) 2009 BY INVINCIBLE SPIRIT(USHA STUD) SUDIRMAN(USA) 2011 BY HENRY THE NAVIGATOR(EQUUS STUD) 2. CORPORATE JUNGLE had a reported crop of 31 live foals as per stud book and only 9 were winners as follows. ROYAL CURRENCY-4WINS including Nilgiri Derby Grade 1. ELECTRA-2WINS LADY ASCOT-2WINS STAR CAVALARY-1WIN SPARTAN -1W BROTHER IN ARMS-1W EXQUISITE STAR-1W FUN LOVER-1W NORELAA-1W. 3. LETIR MOR had a reported crop of 49 and has 12 winners so far. STORM BREAKER-3W including Juvenile Sprinters Million Grade 3. HUNT FOR GOLD-2W including Breeders Produce Stakes Grade 3 VIJAY SINGHAM-2W RAINBOW TROUT-2W MYSTIC BAY-2W SILVER FLAME-2W MAJESTIC WARRIOR 2W BEEMER-1W ICE FLOE-1W GODS PLAN-1W NOVA SCOTIA-1W. 4. SPEAKING OF WHICH had a reported crop of 29 and has 12 winners RHAPSODY-2W ANGEL GRACE-2W MAKHTOOB-2W THE GREAT GATSBY-2W SLICE OF HAVEN-1W GIFT OF GRACE-1W MY PASSION-1W ROSINA-1W SPEAKING OF STARS-1W WIZARD OF STOCKS-1W ASMITA-1W RULE THE WORLD-1W 5. SUDIRMAN being infertile did not have any live produce. COMMENTS A. SPEAKING OF WHICH is no comparison to the good sires produced by the top North Indian Stud Farm which housed the best ever RAZEEN, top sire today MULTIDIMENSIONAL, outstanding GREY GASTON, and the highly respected STEINBECK. However he stands out on comparison to the other three and appears to be the best to choose from the freshman sires purely because of lurking promise over classic distances which the coming winter season will offer to the present 3 year olds.He is bound to click with some Razeen mare, if an ordinary sire like CHINA VISIT could get classic winners from them then hope such winners from SPEAKING OF WHICH are soon to be seen. B. LEITIR MOR appears to be a decent sire as his crop has got two black type races and he is from a stud farm which has quality mares are kept. What is discerning is the number of non racers from the crop, the produce has to be race worthy and should come to hand early otherwise it creates many doubts in the ability. Long time ago we had such a sire in LORD ZARA who gave very fragile produce and it was always a risk for the owners. However the sire may have limitations of stamina, the racing style of the winners indicate suitability for speed. Unfortunately LEITIR MOR developed problems and was hardly utilized and has may be one or two foals in the forth coming season. C. The late CORPORATE JUNGLE was the weakest of the lot, did not give much impressive ones specially at the prime racing centres. Though he gave the Nilgiri derby winner I don’t see much more emerging. Since he has a sizable crop next year he will have winners in smaller centres like Chennai, Delhi etc. D. SUDIRMAN is a sob story for the breeders, he has failed again and may have an odd live one.
