BANGALORE RACES 28 DEC 2007
1.NON STOP CANNON is by speedy CHILLI LADY, may improve on his maiden run. ONE has a staying pedigree, the dam having won over 1800m, the tracks are OK. ANNA’S QUEST is by a very average sire, but the tracks are very suggestive, can win in this unprepared group. ORIGINALITY is top bred, with benefit of a run it may win if tried.
ANNA’S QUEST-ONE-ORIGINALITY
2. PRET A PORTE is showing out on track but very sharp on handicap. SOUTH STAR has often failed under B Prakash, the better Irish jockey may get that bit extra. SWIFT FIRE may not stay. ARABIAN KNIGHT was an impressive 2nd to WONDER SMILE, looks good here.
ARABIAN KNIGHT( Days Best)-SOUTH STAR
3. MAAHI VE has been consistent, the rider will be all out on it .COMMAND PERFORMANCE has been scrubbed on the tracks right through Mysore season and is working well, can place. EVERYTHING NICE is tracking well. DON’S DELIGHT was good in gate practice, it comes much better than C PERFORMANCE on handicap.
DON’S DELIGHT-MAAHI VE-COMMAND PERFORMANCE
4. DIAMOND HUNTER is a good type sprinter, his late 2nd to PASTICHE puts him in reckoning. UPPER CRUST may not be able to defy the penalty. SUGAR BLAZE lost out narrowly last time, the tracks are noteworthy & handicap very suggestive.
SUGAR BLAZE-UPPER CRUST
5. SCIMITAR ran well at Hyderabad amongst better rated horses & comes into reckoning in this class. BLINK is impressive in tracks & will like the distance, his Mysore Derby run puts him in contention here. VAN DER STAR may like the drop in distance. SOUTHERN CHIEFTAIN was hard ridden 2nd last time, appeals on pedigree.
BLINK-SCIMITAR-SOUTHERN CHIEFTAIN
6. ON A ROLL placed both times, can win. SPECIAL GESTURE is by a non performing sire, may place. SHE’S SPECTACULAR is showing out in works. LITTLE SPLENDOUR is speedy, will like the trip.
ON A ROLL-SHE’S SPECTACULAR-LITTLE SPLENDOUR

- 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.
