BANGALORE RACES
POINTERS & SELECTIONS
VALIANT BID has been given a few tracks & may run well under this jockey, the pedigree is normal. ENFORCEMENT was not tried after being backed a bit, can show out now. BULLISH LUCK veered out while looking good in the last run, the present jockey is no improvement, may run straight . YOU BEAUTY has run close to better horses & ran a miserable race as a favorite, can win. DIAMOND SHOWER has been regularly on the tracks for last month & more, may finally earn something.
YOU BEAUTY-BULLISH LUCK-VALIANT BID
SHISHAM ran a listless race as a favorite, may improve. CASINO ROYAL was a keen finisher in last run. SENNA may be a gamble horse as he has been working well & the same rider who last gave him an easy run is repeated. WIN PRETTY BABY was a suggestive runner, may place. WORD TO WORD may utilize the allowance jockey’s claim.
SENNA-SHISHAM-CROWN ROYAL
KYLES OF BUTE is eye catching in works, has a decent pedigree & should fight out. DESERT RULE is nicely bred , the grand dam produced Indian Derby winner ZAYA . The horse had run a decent 2nd to REPIQUE in his only outing & now looks very well prepared. SPARK OF GOLD has run on board in all his runs, will be involved again. FLYFREE impressed in gates.
DESERT RULE-SPARK OF GOLD-KYLES OF BUTE
QUEEN’S GUEST was a good winner who is showing out in tracks, the pedigree is speedy. LITTLE SPLENDOUR was given a soft ride in last run, has lots of speed but the jockey is a controversial one. CANNAVARO is a sparingly raced horse , he has been given gates & mock race to bring him on. SMART’N SPECIAL is maintaining form, the allowance jockey may force the issue.
QUEEN’S GUEST-SMART’N SPECIAL-CANNAVARO
BOURBON KING is last year’s champion & SOUTHERN EMPIRE is the champ of the year before. The two have won 26 races between the two & millions for the owner. The last contest was over favorable distance for the KING, the added distance will suite the older horse more. NOBLE PRINCE has improver, the last win was in top time, the horse maintains form. GRUEZI has been running good races at Mumbai, looks good on comparison. ALEKONA ran a good forward race, the distance will be a worry.
SOUTHERN EMPIRE-BOURBON KING-NOBLE PRINCE
CIMMARON is impressive in works. THE CONTENDER showed out while finishing 4th in a bunch of 3 year olds, appears in top form. SUNNY’S SYMPHONY has been tracking very well. ACT SMART was a late finisher, may be tried now. SURPRISE PACKAGE is working well.
THE CONTENDER-ACT SMART-CIMMARON
ZAFFRANI has been prepared , may run well. SCRAM JET has been well prepared, the breeding is speedy & the latest track was eye-catching. SHE’S SPECTACULAR was a failed favorite in winters, the positive jockey change is an indicator as the tracks are good. GIFTOFACHIEVEMENT ran a good race, will be involved again. ARNATTA is well bred, has taken time to come to racing fitness, wait & watch.
SCRAM JET-SHE’S SPECTACULAR-GIFTOFACHIEVEMENT
GIFT A DIAMOND was a non backed runaway winner who is in pink condition & may defy the huge penality with the claimer jockey. MY FRIEND PAUL is attractive in works. MILFORD is showing out in tracks. CIBONEY was a late second, can place. SANGINI is tracking well. EXCELLENT SPEED is at a tidy handicap’

- 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.
