BANGALORE RACES
1. A race for horses lacking credentials to win. GIVE ME THE MONEY is still a maiden who is tracking well. BLACK SPLENDOUR is a winner of four races. GARA FLUID has the most sincere jockey and she is winner of three races. BEAUTY is another maiden who belongs to a trainer who saves feed money by not exercising his animals. CHAR CHAND has been given runs for reducing handicap.
BLACK SPLENDOUR-GARA FLUID-CHAR CHAND
2. STELLAR AFFAIR is in racing form and has an allowance jockey. WYNN is very well bred who starts racing now. ENDURING SPEED has put in some good tracks under this very rider. SWEET TIMER can run on board.
ENDURING SPEED-STELLAT AFFAIR-WYNN
3. SKY TRAIN was the most impressive winner who is catching the eye in tracks. AIRPLAY is a very well got abroad by a mare who is the first one from RED RANSOM to be imported, the tracks are impressive. ELITE LAND was pulled as a favorite. CAMMORA is from a black type mare and has the present top sire as the broodmare sire, can run for money despite the average sire.
SKY TRAIN-AIRPLAY
4. AMIABLE LADY looks tough on handicap. SUNNY SPELL is in fine form and has a jockey switch which may result better. MISSY MOONLIGHT has scope to improve. JOHN BOLT is showing speed in works, may go all the way. APPROACH may have been given an easy run last time.
JOHN BOLT-SUNNY SPELL-AMIABLE LADY
5. ALACRITY shows lots of speed in tracks but has not delivered as expected so far, should win if the odds don’t drift as the trainer is known for bad performance of favorites. READY TO MINGLE is in winning form. SUPERB STYLE showed much improvement and defied the handicap in last win. CLASSIC CHARGE from the same trainer looks much better on handicap, has tracked well with this rider.
ALACRITY- CLASSIC CHARGE- SUPERB STYLE
6. ADVANTAGE LOGAN is a much improved horse and may be getting the hat trick. ALPHA BABY has to defy the penalty after the surprise win. KINGDOM OF DREAMS is a failed favorite, may run well if the previous us favorite of trainer delivers. CALYPSO STAR went all the way, has class and the rider to go the added distance even on promotion.
ADVANTAGE LOGAN-KINGDOM OF DREAMS- CALYPSO STAR
7. CAYENNE is definitely the horse to beat in this class based on last years performance. TICKET TO RIDE is showing out in works after the last win. NOX has a competitive chance having run close to some of the fancied ones here before. DREAM PARK has to fight out, can run well at low weights with the top jockey.
CAYENNE-DREAM PARK-TICKET TO RIDE
8. GOOD COMPANION is the only ride of this useful rider. DARK HORSE drifted in odds as is the habit with most runners of the trainer, yet he ran a decent race. RED SHIOFT had run well last winters, has tracked well. BADA RUPPAIYA has come down a lot.

- 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.

BLUE LAGOON FOR GLOBAL STUD FARM CUP
Friday, January 29, 2010DELHI RACES
1. DIVINE THUNDER was kept on the rails and prevented from winning against the favorite DAYTONA BEAUTY, may be on purpose, has a chance to score with the better jockey. MOJO is working well. STRIKE IRT RICH has been very well prepared and this one had won his last start in Pune. DAZZLING LIGHT was a bit late in catching up with BISMARK, remains in contention. FIORELLA has been meticulously trained by the new trainer, he is waiting for his first win, may be tried. LIGHTNING PASSION has tracked well.
DIVINE THUNDER-DAZZLING LIGHT-FIORELLA
2. DANCING BEAUTY has a positive rider switch since the jockey in last run woke up a bit late and allowed the winning horse to reach the winning post. BREAKING MOULD has a good chance to place as he had run ahead in race 123 when the favorite was blatantly pulled. ASHWA PRERNA is reasonably well bred for Delhi standards and may run well at low weights. DANCING BABE is the stable-mate who has a chance to do well.
DANCING BEAUTY-BREAKING MOULD-ASHWA PRERNA
3. SUNEHRA PARINDA has been poorly trained this season. DUTCH ART has to beat the handicap to win now. SUCCESSFUL DREAM is at an ideal handicap. SKYROS can run a good race even on promotion. An avoidable event.
SUCCESSFUL DREAM-DUTCH ART-SKYROS
4. REAL SCOTCH goes over the ideal distance. PALADIN has a try jockey. RISING PRINCESS is a failed favorite, has a poor jockey over an extended trip. ASHWA PRAYAG has matured after his Pune stint where he ran with better types. BEACH RAIN may show some improvement.
ASHWA PRAYAG-REAL SCOTCH-PALADIN
5. THE ROCK was the local champion last year who appears to be out of form at present. BLUE LAGOON is in very good form to beat the handicap. TAKE A CHANCE can run well over this trip. VAGABOND looks too good on comparison with BLUE LAGOON, may go all the way with the allowance jockey.
BLUE LAGOON-THE ROCK- VAGABOND
6. FLYBY has a rider switch, has plenty of speed. RESILIENCE is a failed favorite. YARE has come down to the winning mark and can surprise. ASHWA PAYALIA nods this run. PAINTED BOY has come down in scales.
FLYBY-YARE-PAINTED BOY
7. QUAND MEME has initial speed. BURSTIC BRAVE has a decent chance being from the younger lot. BERYL has to fight to place again. SHAITAN is waiting to create mischief.

GOLDEN HEART FOR THE DEEPAK TROPHY
Thursday, January 28, 2010MUMBAI RACES
From the entries for the races today it appears that the big guns are not likely to be firing and the second string and other trainers should be vying to pick up a few races.
1. A minefield of a race with many contenders in with a chance. DANGEROUS BELLE has a positive rider switch after the close run for place. NYMPH has been tried many times with foreign riders, now the local lad may get a better response. SECRET MAGIC had run a faraway 2nd to MANEGE at Pune, has age on side. BLAU HIMMEL has placed with this rider but had a poor run later. NONIOS has been given tracks and should run well with try jockey for a small time trainer. IJLAL has the best jockey and age on his side, has yet to be under the stick. CHOPASNI ran a good race despite a slow get off. TRY YOUR LUCK was in betting order but raced in the rear for unknown reasons, has capability to win at these weights.
IJLAL-CHOASNI-SECRET MAGIC
2. CALLING THE SHOTS was an encouraging 3rd in youngsters company. ROSE BOWL had a good run and is tracking well. GOT TO GO is working well and goes over the pet distance. BELLIGERENT won well and has to see off the penalty.
ROSE BOWL-GOT TO GO-CALLING THE SHOTS
3. OCEAN OF FAITH has a tough task to win despite having the most successful team. DELPHI is half sister to BLAZING SPECTACLE and appears forward from the gates. GOLDEN HEART should benefit from the runs and the positive rider switch. VIA CHASELLAS needs more distance to win.
GOLDEN HEART-DELPHI-VIA CHASELLAS
4. MISCHEVIOUS TROT has good form and a good jockey. CLASSIC STAR has come down in handicap, can go all the way. ALGORITHMS may find the trip a bit long. CATALYST belongs to a trainer whose horses don’t run to form , may surprise. ALEXUS won well after a longish break and has chance to repeat.
ALEXUS-CLASSIC STAR- MISCHEVIOUS TROT
5. BLAZING SPECTACLE had been given kilos and beating by ESTEVEZ in earlier clash. ESTEVEZ has been given some ordinary rides, has the best credentials if ridden to win from the front. SOOPHIE is a good sprinter who has been kept on a leash so far. WILD TORRANADO is running very encouragingly. SCENIC SILVER has the worst jockey but can run well on its own.
ESTEVEZ-SOOPHIE-WILD TORRANADO
6. RIVER PRIDE has a load to carry, failed to get going last time. WHITE KNIGHT is a well bred who appears to have come to hand. GREEN SIGNAL has a poor jockey. ARIANE and SACRED RELIC were both finishing on in last attempt and have to be fighting out again. ASHRIDGE has the jockey to get the well bred going.
SACRED RELIC-ARIANE-ASHRIDGE
7. WALKING TALL is capable of winning any day, he is just about there in most runs. RAN BANKA has been waited with for a coup at good odds. SECRET TALK can place under the try jockey. PARIS HILTON is tracking well. ONUS PROBUNDI is a sitter at handicap, needs the signal at this trip.

Tuesday, January 26, 2010BANGALORE RACES
1. VOICE OF INDIA has a stronger rider to build on last effort, the horse is the only winner in this class so far. VODOO MOON won well and then was given a soft ride by the suspended rider.

VOICE OF INDIA-MAN UNITED-VOODO MOON
2. LEON CAVALLO is looking for a difficult hat trick. ALL MY COLOURS is tracking well, needs a bit more distance. GREENS has been tracked very often, very contrary to track shy trainer, the horse has run with better types and is capable of winning, the doubts are on the intent. CASPIAN SEA has been given easy runs so far, looks like to be under the stick for a fight now. MAC is an aged horse who has won twice under this rider at good odds before.
GREENS-CASPIAN SEA-ALL MY COLOURS
3. IMMENSE impressed in gates. AMERICUS is well bred and has the best jockey. TEMPUS FUGIT is the best in tracks but belongs to a dubious trainer, should run well. COULOR ROUGE is bred for speed and may run well. AWARDING ran green in last effort, the tracks are good. CHERELLE should be useful over a trip.
AWARDING-TEMPUS FUGIT-COULOR ROUGE
4. PEACEMAKER was given a suspicious ride as a favorite. BOLZANO is impressive in works. DEFIANCE is bound to do well after the try effort in last run. GOLDEN DIXIE has put in attractive tracks, may run well. SARATOGA was given a poor ride in last run, the handicap appeals.
DEFIANCE-SARATOGA-PACEMAKER

BECKET-YOURE SO BEAUTIFUL-CABRIOLET
