PUNE RACES
1. SECRET TALK comes into reckoning based on the last run, the jockey is doing well as an apprentice. ASHWA PRAHAR is a gamble horse since he has been waited with. The horse had run a couple of good races last year and has a reasonably good jockey today after a couple of tracks. MRS JONES is from a speedy dam. SECRET AGENDA will try to lead and go all the way. STRIKE IT RICH may need more distance, the jockey is doing well in first rides of the day.

2. SEA VALUE won handsomely under Appu, the subsequent tracks are very encouraging. CLASSIC RULER has been pulled often, waiting for the right time to strike. WARCRAFT is very attractive in works after the stable change. GLORIA had run 4th to JACQUILINE at Mumbai, the last run was too bad.

3. TROMOS is bred to stay and is tracking very well. THANDA has won a couple of staying trips at good odds, the handicap is stiff. RAGE OF ANGELS may finish on. EQUALITY has the weights in favor compared to last year when the horse was conceding weight.
EQULITY-TROMOS
4. FIRE VAULT was a decent 4th, has a poor rider. ROYAL BELLA won a good race at longish odds, the trip should not be a problem. ARABIAN CHAMP has been scrubbed in tracks always by this rider. TOMMY CARMICHAEL has been disappointing me for long, the handicap and the distance suit.

5. MR GREEDY has run against good types. VEERA WANG is the only 4 year old who looks out of form. VERSAKI is the top 3 year old who has to stay, doesn’t look a problem to me. FLASHING FLAME is bound to be in the fray at this distance.

6. BLAZING SPECTACLE is a decently bought in horse who is very well prepared. HUNTER BAY ran a blinding race at long odds, mow has a stronger jockey. SUPREME EMPEROR could have easily been the favorite here if Prakash was riding, he has run with big company at Mumbai, the first named horse must be good for the owner to send this one for an outing. TRACK THUNDER is looking good in tracks. SATSUMA STAR is a well bred who has taken time to come to hand, the trainer is known to have problems with well breds.

7. AMORE MIO ran a very disappointing race last time, needs to be given another chance. PATEK PHILLIPE has come down in scales, can win. ECSTATICA has been prepared and given a run. SUAVE MENTE won her maiden start very well and is capable of putting up another fighting show.
AMORE MIO-SUAVE MENTE-PATEK PHILLIPE
8. BEAU MONDE was not ON in last run, may run a fighting race. THE RISING is capable of winning at this distance if tried . ARKHOS is the other one from the canny trainer who has not made any impact lately. WAR OD ATTRITION won handsomely and can repeat if it doesn’t choke up.

- 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.
