BANGALORE RACES
1. REAL MAGIC ran a forward race in last run. GEM OF GEMS has STARFIRE GIRL as the grand dam, the gates are suggestive. HATSUHAANA is full sister to FLEETING ARROW , she is tracking well & with a poor opposition should romp home as a favorite. SMARK COOKIE was prepared well & given a run where it veered out badly.
HATSUHAANA-GEM OF GEMS-REAL MAGIC
2. GOD’S WILL is a late bloomer, it appears to have come on a lot after its first run. WAY TO FANTASY may be tried in this poor lot. SILVER PARIS is a front running type. ZIGGY STARDUST is tracking well.
GOD’S WILL-WAY TO FANTASY-ZIGGY STARDUST
3. TIME FLIES is by the speedy sire, the gates are O K. MOMENT OF THE DAY is showing lots of promise in works. SECRET CHARM , a full sister to XIAMEN was an easy 3rd, should do well on being tried. RASHIDA , a full sister to SOLID SUCCESS, ran a forward race, should fight it out.
SECRET CHARM-RASHIDA-MOMENT OF THE DAY
4. MAJESTIC STRIDES had started to run only in the straight, should like the trip now. STAR OF MARMALADE is one of MAM’s hopeful this year, this brother to MYSTICAL appears to have come to hand, should be a good thing. SUN GOLD is a place hopeful. CORBETT is by a staying mare , the horse is showing out in works. AGILITY is sister to SWEEEPING SURPRISE, the last run has braught her on.
STAR OF MARMALADE-AGILITY-CORBETT
5. PELIKANO , a full brother to the Stayer’s Cup winner ARABIAN KNIGHT has been judiciously prepared, should go all the way. ROYAL CONFIDENCE has handicap disadvantage vis a vis SUPER SPEAR who has won twice start to finish, the rider may fight on. TERN ME ON is shining in tracks, has a fight on hands.
PELIKANO-TERN ME ON-SUPER SPEAR
6. ABS FABS is not bred to stay.ALL MY COLOURS won as a good type, the breeding is for distance. STAR WAVE had beaten the hopefuls here in Mysore 1000 G, when finishing on strongly, the distance gives her a fair chance. CHIMERIQUE was a good 2nd to SUCCEEDING STAR, may stay on well. ICE BREAKER is the top handicapper whom all have to beat, staying over the trip is the only worry.

7. EASY has come down a class to a weight which it has carried for a win before. ROYAL TREASURE looks short of work. ASTOUNDING BLUE is pleasing in works. ZAFAR was a noticeable 2nd in last run, has a good jockey. GIFT A DIAMOND is notable in tracks.
ASTOUNDING BLUE-EASY-GIFT A DIAMOND
8. ALYCIA has an allowance jockey who can hit the front for a getaway. HAWAIIN SUNRISE who has not earned anything for long has come down in class. MISS MARVELLOUS has a try jockey. BLACK SPLENDOUR may run a better race here.
HAWAIIN SUNRISE-MISS MARVELLOUS-BLACK SPLENDOUR
9. SANGINI has come down in class, the try jockey gives him a chance. CASINO ROYAL is working well. JERSEY POWER has been a flop so far, the rider has lost touch with winners. SUDDEN THUNDER has run with better types. ON THE DOT was a good finisher in last race. CIBONEY is pleasing in works, the owner is picking up races regularly.

- 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.
