1. NAGARJUNA was backed ambitiously under a rookie, obviously lost and bled, has not even been tracked once since then. INTERACTIVE was braught down to scratch and then scored without having been bet upon, last run she could not defy the penalty, has a rider switch for a try again.Last run of DONTWORRYMONDAY was highly suspicious, was not pressed till others moved up, has a good chance with rider repeating. MYSTIC LAVENDERS has low weights and a reasonable rider.
DONTWORRYMONDAY(8)-WIN
INTERACTIVE(6)/ MYSTIC LAVENDERS(11)-PLACE.
2. POWERS COURT has never showed out since the maiden win last year, may do well in this class as tracks are fine. SURNATUREL has been regularly tracked , has many negatives for win. EXEMPLAR ran on in lat run and has a huge rider switch. SHIVALIK DANCE has been well tracked for the new owner, was shocked as favorite in winters. UNIVERSAL LAW has worked fine, rider is weak.
SHIVALIK DANCE(9)-WIN
EXEMPLAR(6)/POWER'S COURT(1)-PLACE.
3. FLYING BULLET does not appeal at this handicap, has not been worked since last flop show. EMANCIPATION ran a forward race and has a rookie for another try now. JUST FABULOUS ran below level last time, is one paced. THE JAGUAR can upset at this handicap with a forward run, has come down in scales. CRAZY PINEAPPLE has the rider repeating after a useful 2nd. SHINNING BAY has a rider switch, has low weights to run a forward race.
SHINNING BAY(10)-WIN
JUST FABULOUS(5)/EMANCIPATION(3)-PLACE.
4. AMAZING REDD has always won in sprints, is showing notable tracks. HOSTESS ran way above her handicap in last run and has not been penalised much by the officials, can win .KING OF THE COURT had won his only race 3 years back, runs with a fine chance on demotion here.SECRET DIMENSION impressed in gates. ADRIPHOS has impressed in track and can strike if tried by the sporting owners. MANTA RAY has a try rider at low weights.
HOSTESS(2)-WIN
KING OF THE COURT(3)/ ADRIPHOS(5)-PLACE
5. CASTLE KEY is in tremendous form and needs to be backed till beaten. RUSSIAN LINK fought well and lost gallantly. SIR MAJESTIC has lots to do here, maintains form. VIVID IMPRESSION has to surprise some day. SUPER SUCESS is a good type who is receiving enough weight to be the strong fancy in this field, has mostly raced over a bit longer distance. ALBERTINO is the joker in the pack, can jolt.
CASTLE KEY(1)-WIN
SUPER SUCCESS(10)/ALBERTINO(12)-PLACE.
6. CADILLAC SKY is a lame horse who has taken down public money twice, dont back if favored again, has top weight. STAR HUNT has been sharpened up and can run well on a clean jump. FLOTUS from the gambling stable looks to be ready for a serious backing, ignore last run.Home bred SANTORINI SECRET ran a fine forward race, should be fighting out now.
FLOTUS(6)-WIN
SANTORINI SECRET(9)/CADILLAC SKY(1)-PLACE.
7. A competitive race with first timers likely to dominate. GRECIAN LIGHT is from a good sire and a dam who failed in her first 4 foals to get a winner, here she gave SMART STAR, this one has been meticulously prepared by the trainer and will fight out, ran a good mock recently. RUSTLER is the best performed of the lot, is tracking very impressively and has a good chance despite being ordinary bred. SCION is from a good British sire who was a stout miler and a well performed SADDLER'S WELLS mare, has shaped up very nicely and a couple of fast gates have brought him on. ADMIRAL ONE is half sister to good type AUBURN BEAUTY, ran a poor race in winters but has progressed much this season to be in contention with the good rider, may need more distance though. LEPTIS MAGNA is the grand dam of ALLIES SERENADE, & the three quarter sister to SERJEANT AT ARMS, has to mature.
GRECIAN LIGHT(2)-WIN
SCION(6)/ RUSTLER(5)-PLACE.
8. ATTRACTIVE BAY is a good handicapper and his 4th to FANTASY QUEEN gives him a fine chance to upset. CANNES gets a proper rider after long, let us see what improvement he can force. ROYAL DEFENCE was pulled last time, had failed earlier, all sorts of scheming is possible, doesn't appeal yet. AGUANTE has showed out in track, will like the cut of the track being a PLACERVILLE offspring. GOODWILL WARRIOR led in and flopped, is vulnerable still. OPEN PAGE has changed ownership etc, may be tried.
ATTRACTIVE BAY(2)-UPSET
AGUANTE(8)/GOODWILL WARRIOR(9)-PLACE.
