MYSORE RACES

1. Looks tough for SENATOR again, the elder brother to SCORPENE looks a dud.ESTERHAZY ran a fair 4th under a weak rider, has a chance now over ideal distance. EUDORA placed for first time in career and logically should be tried .FANTASY LIVING was a faraway 2nd , belongs to a bookie, may be tried against the suspect favorite. BLACK WIND has low weights, was given a run as a favorite.

EUDORA(7)-WIN

ESTERHAZY(2)/BLACK WIND(10)-PLACE.

2. DEFINING MOMENT is the oldie who caught the eye with good display in gates. BEAUTIFUL EFFECT was nicely prepared and given a soft run, will improve now.I think COUNTER POINT will find it tough to repeat as he was ridden out to win narrowly in lower class. AS ALWAYS can upset . CONCENTRATION is nicely positioned on handicap, won well under a rookie last time.

CONCENTRATION (7)-WIN

COUNTER POINT(5)/BEAUTIFUL EFFECT(3)-PLACE.

3. COOL DUDE has impressed in preparation, may run well under the rookie. GIRALDA lost at the post and has a top rider to redeem, looks vulnerable on handicap. HER'S ABBEY can win if she jumps well, needs good odds for that. CATERINA runs for the bookies, always wins knocking down a hot favorite, was ridden in check last time, is due to deliver punch any day.STRIVE AND SERVE is a beaten favorite who may run better at these weights.

HERE'S ABBEY(4)-WIN

GIRALDA(2)/ COOL DUDE(1)-PLACE


4. PASSING FULCRUM is tracking regularly, is looking for form. WINGED KING may rebound from the very bad run last time, earlier runs were much better.THE WOLF won stylishly and is working in top form, should repeat. STRENGTH AND WONDER has been given an easy run after some fine tracks, can do well at this level . CLASSIC KING has the work jockey repeating.

THE WOLF(4)-WIN

STRENGTH AND WONDER(6)/WINGED KING(3)-PLACE

5. CLASS IS CLASS is unreliable who has top weight under a rookie, may place. CLEVER TRICK was nicely manipulated in AVOCET'S race earlier and then struck at good odds under an ordinary rider, has enough early speed to be in fight again. AVOCET was sent over extra yards last time, is a known front runner who has a better rider here.TREASURE MOUNTAIN is a good type with a rookie, needs a run.ACE FORCE finished on strongly in last run under a good jockey who has been changed, also note the change of trainer, may take a dive if favored as happened with SAZAE SAN and ALWAYS UNITED yesterday, in this centre odds have to suit to make the horses run as per handicap. SUFFICENT PROOF is on the up and may defy the penalty.

CLEVER TRICK(2)-WIN

SUFFICIENT PROOF(8)/AVOCET(4)-PLACE.

6. S JOHN the rider outsmarted Y SRINATH on SKYJET in last close fight, the later has a good chance to redeem if given a front ride, but only if not favored by the bookies, the trainer is known for his aversion to bookies not offering him required odds. DREAMLINER is speedy, has been kept under wraps, may show out this season, went speedily in gates. CLASS ABOVE is a candidate for places. ACCURACY may run well.

DARK WILLIAM(2)-WIN

SKYJET(1)/ CLASS ABOVE (5)-PLACE

7. TREMENDOUS won with a flourish and has the rider for repeat, tracks are positive, weights are a bother. SPEED QUEEN was not handled well in last run by the aging rider, has a chance to fight out. AMAZING CONNECTION belongs to some one who likes to knock out public hot favorites, has positioned the right type rider who takes orders and delivers, horse has been prepared for the race, may or may not be tried. COUNTRY'S ANGEL is speedy and has a rider switch.

AMAZING CONNECTION(8)-UPSET

TREMENDOUS(1)/COUNTRY'S ANGEL(8)-PLACE

SHINNING BAY is down a lot in scales, had won a sprint at long odds last summers. A CROWN will have many takers today as a top jockey is placed after a fast finish in last run, is from a gambling stable and has a useless sire, may get beat. CAMPFIRE is tracking fine.

SHINING BAY(6)-UPSET

A CROWN (7)/ CAMP FIRE (8)-PLACE.

4. SWISS EAGLE at fine odds was ridden with confidence for a win, surprisingly the much improved rider has been replaced. ICE GLACIER finished on late in Fillies Championship, has a chance based on that run and her age. SUMMERHILL was not even mentioned in Colts version, runs with hope now. AGUANTE can get the distance.

ICE GLACIER(2)-WIN

SUMMERHILL(4)-PLACE.

5. ALBERTINO has the weak rider repeating for a place effort. WINGS OF FORTUNE placed on board in higher class , has been favored by the official handicapper, can do damage here if tried. HILLSBORO is in earning form. KNIGHTHOOD was trashed long way from the finish in last run, rookie repeats. DOWNTON ABBEY was the one creeping up along rails who caught my eye in a late finish in lower class, has age on side at low weights.

WINGS OF FORTUNE(5)/ KNIGHTHOOD(8)-PLACE.

6. ACCLAIMED is a top horse who can win again, has fine form. SHIVALIK STAR continues to be zestful despite the age.SMILESTONE took a fraction of second extra to warm up, has missed a good chance last time.

RAW GOLD has good bloodlines but has landed with a very average trainer, the half brother to STARLET appears to have come to hand.HURRAH is a costly one who was hustled too early in career and ended up being a blood vessel case, may run well in this type of season. DANCING PRINCESS belongs to a well acknowledged bad trainer, has often failed.

CALICO KING(1)-WIN

RAW GOLD(5)/ DANCING PRINCESS(8)-PLACE.

8. MONTANA SKY is an outsider from a anti punter trainer who has tracked the horse very well and put up the top rider, back him at your own risk, sire is ordinary and dam has only breeding value. NATANZA was done in by a crooked rider who gave an aweful ride last time, I had predicted it, can redeem with the better jockey today. LOVE IS IN THE AIR is from a very ordinary mare, has been worked constantly. ROMANTIC HELEN looks a tryer, has fine tracks. SAGA ran a fighting 2nd against the speedy DIVA, lacks preparation.

NATANZA(3)-WIN

MONTANA SKY(2)/ SAGA(12)-PLACE

9. ARECA WONDER has a rider switch , last run was fair, may do well now. INTEGRATED was crying for more distance in last run, he is not a sprinter. The horse had given up much before the final post in last run, was he pulled, don’t think so, how can there be a drastic change to warrant support and that also for most unreliable connections. SIR MAJESTIC had gone negative in betting last time, was ridden in check and yet finished on close home. ARTIC ATTRACTION is a failed favorite who races against youngsters now.

ARECA WONDER(1)-WIN

SIR MAJESTIC(7)/INTEGRATED(6)-PLACE.

FLAMBOYANCE(7)-WIN

TORCH BEARER(6)/GABINO(7)-PLACE

5. ASHWA RAFTAR should run to his true potential now. DIVA has won both times but is from an ordinary sire.

SYDNEY HARBOUR(9)-WIN

EMIDIO(5)/FABULOUS TOUCH(8)-PLACE.

6. AKHA TEEJ pleased a lot with a fast finish and inspite of top weight will run a fighting race, concedes weight now.

5. CLASS IS CLASS is suspect in gates, has top weight and rookie over a mile is not ideal for a win. SO FAST has been given a run, looks good on comparison and specially under the hard rider. Have no doubts about GRAND SUCCESS being an oldie and going over unfamiliar trip, in Mysore oldies are never to be taken lightly specially when in form and have good riders.

INTO THE SPOTLIGHT was not on the job as a favorite in winters, has been fine tuned now in company of IN THE SUNRISE who was well backed and surprisingly won effortlessly, this full brother to champion filly IN THE SPOTLIGHT appears fit and may open at cramped odds. AMAZING LOVE is from an ordinary sire, the half brother to good type CHALA JA BACHA has come to hand and will run a good forward race. WYLDE from the good sire has been brought to fitness level, the sister to ATOMIC can run a good race.

INTO THE SPOTLIGHT(2)-WIN

AMAZING LOVE (4)/WYLDE(12)-PLACE.

2. BAZINGA is an unreliable one had often failed to deliver when backed. LORD DARLINGTON is bred for speed, half brother to MAGICAL LIGHT had been sent to Mumbai but could not hold on to early speed advantage and flopped in all runs, has looked in good shape and faces a mediocre set here, may deliver if not allowed to cut the wind early. QUEEN’S ACE had come up well in last run and rider repeats. ACTIVE GREY is an in and out runner from the scheming and anti punter trainer, had run a fine 2nd to VICIOUS CIRCLE.

LORD DARLINGTON(3)-WIN

ACTIVE GREY(7)/QUEEN’S ACE (6)-PLACE.

3. A gymkhana race with no whips and older age group, avoid. ARZIKI has won at this level before but long time back. TROJAN is a failed favorite from earlier run. ONE TO NOTE has achance with the keen rookie , has worked well. GO GREEN is from a sleeping trainer, has a top draw rider. FEET ON FIRE has the advantage of a suggestive run, rookie has a chance.

ONE TO NOTE(5)/TROJAN(3)-PLACE.

4. SHE’S STUNNING has been worked well, may improve. FESTIVE CHEER ran below par last time, rider does not evoke interest over such a trip. THOMAS MORE ran a poor race, may struggle again. CAPT MORGAN is the one who was a most impressive winner and the brother to ADMIRALITY will like the added distance. NAMID surprised by winning a sprint easily, has been fluent in tracks and though the dam has won staying races the step up to more than a mile for this one may be steep .

CAPTAIN MORGAN(5)-WIN

NAMID(6)-PLACE.

5. AMAZING REDD finished impressively under a weak rider and has the rider switch, has not obliged for long. MANTA RAY was given an easy mock, has a try rider. SANDS OF TIME is tracking well, has a rookie for a forward run. RAPID ADVANCE has the try rider repeating, track is suggestive.

AMAZING REDD(1)-WIN

RAPID ADVANCE(11)/ MANTA RAY(5)-PLACE.

6. BATTALION is maintaining OOTY form but faces much superior types here. SERJEANT AT ARMS had shaped as a classic horse with two authentic wins in winters, has been tracking in top fettle and has the capability to win even without a warm up race, ignore all talk about injury etc, this stable is well known for such canards, remember the long odd wins of ADMIRALITY last year who had a similar fake injury. SUPREME GENERAL is the one who has an imposing tail line pedigree and has displayed the same in a ruthless win over a sprint, he is bound to come hard at the bunch in the home run, shapes as the up setter of the day. WHOMAKESTHERULES has the breeding and showed out his class with a smashing win in KJM, has to be favored for that.

WHO MAKES THE RULES(11)-WIN

SERJEANT AT ARMS(7)/ SUPREME GENERAL(10)-PLACE.

MAGICAL LIGHT(7)-WIN

UNGOOGLABLE(5)/ RUSSIAN LINK (4)-PLACE

8. AMBER CROWN is half brother to ACE ANGEL FIRE and has the advantage of summering at OOTY, is being tracked very regularly but has a jockey who has perhaps been employed for aiding negative betting .LIGHTENING STRIKES is half brother to good type DATAGNAN but the trainer has failed to settle him down to pace properly, track work is deceptive. SIDE WINDER was not in the race when punters went wild in winters based on the good preparation and gambling connections, was beaten by a good one in ARVAK, is likely to excite and gain same response once again as the tracks are very suggestive. A HEART TO REMEMBER is from a good sire and looks keen, impressed in gates. HARLEY QUINN is the one from shady characters, was perhaps kept in gates for a slow take off purposely as the aim was to obtain odds for stable mate LUNAR STORM who had only this one to fear, may duck again. MISTRESS OF SPICE needs distance, has been worked and rider is capable for a try even here.

SIDE WINDER(9)-WIN

MISTRESS OF SPICE(11)/ HARLEY QUINN(9)-PLACE.

9. BETTER THAN EVER is a keen oldie with a chance to place as field here is ordinary. GOOD FRUIT had run some suggestive races in winters, has been given runs. MILLROSE won easily and maintains form, has a tendency to loose pace close home. TEMUJIN is a forward runner who may improve.

1. TARINI is the lone winner in this bunch and he won when rider was not very enterprising till the horse warmed up, she is half sister to good type KOHINOOR WISH and is likely to win again under the strong rider. WEAR THE HAT is from a good sire but has yet to come to hand, is working easy. ISLAND PEARL can be measured up against TARINI, was in the lead in group when overtaken. ROARING THUNDER from an ordinary sire and equally average trainer should be the one to fight out provided she runs a forward race like last time.

TARINI(1)-WIN

ISLAND PEARL(5)/ROARING THUNDER(6)-PLACE.

2. REVERBRATING has been denied clear runs both times this season, was a notable 2nd to EXEMPLAR in winters. SEA DOVE was manipulated in earlier runs and had been brought down well, tried to steal the race at good odds but was shy at the post, , has a slightly better rider. Stable mate GRANADA has been very nicely prepared after relocation in Inayatulla's stable, has come down in scales and if you study race 260 in winters he is a much better one, however trainer may wait with this one for now. WILD WILD WEST can upset in this weak field and has looked much improved in gates. Oldie TIC TAC TOE has a try rider and is working nicely.

SEA DOVE (9)-WIN

REVERBRATING(2)/ GRANADA(12) -PLACE.

3. SOUTHERN FANTASY had destroyed the field at good odds in summers last year, is at the correct mark to try and win again as the field is highly suspect and last run was easy. IN THE SUNRISE has started racing late and has the best rider on top after a couple of impressive works, may be favored based on last place under a work jockey. PULL THE PLUG ran a suggestive race and should like the extra furlong. SAFFRON INTENSE has fine form and is working encouragingly. TREE LOUNGE is still appearing a bit backwards.

SOUTHERN FANTASY(1)-WIN

IN THE SUNRISE(3)/ PULL THE PLUG(4)-PLACE.

4. OMBER GLAZE maintains form but has top weight. CHERIE AMOUR had finished on in last run, is due for a win.

HONOUR (6)-WIN

FANTASY QUEEN (9)/ CHERIE AMOUR (5)-PLACE.

5. Champion horse BE SAFE returns to home turf and has been painstakingly prepared for the race, impressed with an effortless cruise in the mock. A very good horse ALAINDIAR may have aged but is in roaring form in tracks, looks to have an out side chance here. CAMERON is on the up, will like the extra distance today. BOOKER JONES ran a very impressive 2nd to the current champion DESERT GOD and has to be respected for that. HEAVEN IS HERE runs with hope at low weights, has the good rider but the winner of a single race has much to cover against the imposing field.

BE SAFE(1)-WIN

ALAINDAIR(2)/ BOOKER JONES(5)-PLACE

6. SUPER SUCCESS who fought out and lost close home in last outing has to concede weight to many tryers now. BONFIRE was a good 2nd in the same race and rider repeats. ALEXANDRITE has a rider switch after a useful run, conditions will suit the filly. QUAKER RIDGE looks an improved horse this season, last win was impressive. SPIRIT AND TRUTH veered out a bit under pressure as a favorite, has worked impressively.

ALEXANDRITE(3)-WIN

QUAKER RIDGE(5)/SPIRIT AND TRUTH(12)-PLACE.

7. A tough race as many well bred compete over a mile hence previous running may not be the exact pointers. LOCHINVAR is a failed favorite from outside who is showing out well in tracks, the full brother to SEA LORD has a tough job here. MAGISTERO was handled tenderly yet dragged the rider to finish on board in the straight, has been prepared since that run and the half brother to MUROI has to be watched now. PALLAS has run well both times, needs a run now. ADULATION is half brother to celebrated XISCA is looking improved in tracks, was hassled to lead last time, may be waited with today. HALL OF FAMER is catching the eye every time she works, has a trainer who knows his job. STAR NIJINSKY has to be favored for the last fighting finish against ATTORNEY GENERAL who won again, the half sister to REAL EXCELLENCE has staying bloodlines, change of trainer puts some doubts.SWEET TEMPTATION is half sister to CLINTON and has been given a run, will improve.

STAR NIJINSKY(9)-WIN

MAGISTERO(5)/HALL OF FAMER(8)-PLACE.

8. SECRET PRAYER has fine form but weights are against. ONLY PRINCESS had warmed up much late last time, has a rider to force now. EVERY BREAKING WAVE has been given a run, distance is ideal.

EUDORA appears to have come to hand, ignore last run, is working impressively. PEPPR is at low weights to upset.


ALPS(1)-WIN

ORO PLATA was a notable 2nd in last run, has not been tracked this season.ESOTERICAL lost a fighting race and can redeem if tried sincerely, the trainer and rider are groping for a win since long.

ESOTERICAL(11)-WIN

COUNTRY'S ANGEL(2)/CATWALK QUEEN (1)

5. A race purely between two in CONSTANTINE and CLASS IS CLASS as others are not sprinters. CONSTANTINE looks vulnerable on handicap as he was beaten well by CLASS IS CLASS while receiving weight over 1400 m, however he won easily over 1200m later while receiving 1 kg. The fact to ponder is that CONSTANTINE exceeded his potential by running 3rd in sprinter's cup and has age on side, both are showing good speed in tracks, former has class, the later has handicap in favor.

CONSTANTINE(1)-WIN

CLASS IS CLASS(2)-PLACE.


6. RUTHBA was not in the race last time as the owners had lost heavily when she was earlier beaten by outsider MR CARPE, the mare was kept off pace and interference etc as reported is simply hogwash for the stewards to lump up, has handicap chance but intent will remain shadowy. ASPASIA looks too well placed on scales after the last half hearted run, should easily win now.STRENGTH AND WONDER is working well, needs a run or two. GUTSY WIND won well in a fight at OOTY , was kept easy in last run, is showing promising tracks. SANCY is down in scales and can improve.

ASPASIA(4)-WIN

GUTSY WIND(8)/RUTHBA(3)-PLACE

7. BRYANT PARK won without backing easily to give scope for doing well again. PASSING FANCY was another one who simply ran away under the rookie, but it is rare for such riders to repeat on the same ride when facing penalty. COUNTRY'S PRINCESS is a failed favorite who has a slightly better rider now. JAMAIS VU has worked nicely. MATTEO showed out in a mock race. SILKEN WATER needs more ground for effect, has been tracking for long. SPEED QUEEN has a chance at low weight, is in fine nick.
