BANGALORE RACES
1. STAGE LIGHT had a bad check despite which the horse ran on strongly in the end, the allowance jockey can win here. SUNNY’S CONNEXION is an unreliable type who has not won for very long. SOUTHERN MAGIC belongs to a betting type owner, the tracks are good and can win all the way under this good jockey. WHISPER VALLEY has a chance here as the progeny of BRAVE ACT does well on softer type of underfoot conditions which are prevailing.

2. XEL was a good gamble last time, the horse has not been tracked thereafter. MIGHTY PRINCE has a chance to be first one from Hyderabad to score here as the field is uncertain. SPARK OF OLDENBERG is looking half fit, there is no shine in tracks. FLIP YOUR DESTINY has come down a lot, it has to be watched now onwards. BLACK BEAUTY should run a forward race under the rookie.
FLIP YOUR DESTINY-BLACK BEAUTY-XEL
3. ZANGI is a winner of three races, last run was thereabouts. DIAMOND SHOWER has been blazing the tracks for the last six months, looks very forward, the jockey is for rates. PRINCE NORBERT folded up after leading in, can not be backed here. MEXICAN WAVE is due to earn for the owners.

4. SHOTGUNN is showing out in works, the speedy one gave an indication of positive ness in winters run. LONE RANGER is from a speedy pedigree, may be tried with this jockey. ICE MINT is well bred and showing out in works, will be in the fray. CLASSIC COMMANDER impressed in gates, the rider can fight out.

5. SPIRITUALL has been tracking well, may emulate his elder brother who won in style yesterday. ACQUITAINE is the speediest one, he was eased up in last run by this rider , I suspect the family’s fancy was Harish riding on RARE AND PRECIOUS. EINSTEIN is good at handicap, the jockey is a big worry. JERSEY PRIDE is due to shock some day as he has come down a lot. MOTHER’S PRIDE needs more distance, the weights appeal.
ACQUITAINE-SPIRITUALL-JERSEY PRIDE
6. AMAZING FLORA is worse off on handicap. HIDALGO wins at odds at this handicap. EVENT HORIZON has the jockey for a fighting run. FREE GLIDER has done nothing for long, the good jockey may be able to coax him. MISS MARVELLOUS has been bought down, the rider switch be noted. DANTE’S PEAK is at a good scale, the last run was suggestive.

7. ABOLINE has won all his starts well, the only doubt can be the staying ability of BURDEN OF PRROF off springs, should be ready for a tough race as the others are going to come at him in the end. ALACRITY is the most improved, the last win was good. STAR OF MARMALADE gave indication of being a good type when he won the first start in style over 1400 metres, the last run under the 2nd string jockey braught him to a length behind D’ARTAGNAN, he is bound to show out like his elder brother MYSTICAL over this trip. D’ARTAGNAN won in controversial circumstances last time, allegedly under steroids effect, that puts another blot on his chances apart from the time when he went down as a half money favorite to ABOLINE ion winters.

8. ALGIERS has come down in scales. NOBLE KINGDOM has been a disappointment, does not quicken when it matters. KAJU RAHO has been thereabouts, may be able to get up in the final stages of the race. SHISHAM is very pleasing in tracks.
KAJU RAHO-NOBLE KINGDOM-SHISHAM
9. LADY DUFF was a comfortable winner who is in fine nick. PATH TO FAME is working very well. SPARK OF SOLITAIRE has a successful jockey for the connections. GRAND RAPIDS is speedy. MERCUTIO is at low weights.

- 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.
