1. Pedigreed Mystified should win from Super Power. Local Warrior is done in by the penalty for the last win & the rider's father is the trainer of S Power, hence may not be in the race seriously.
2. On paper Lord Of Illussion looks a winner having raced 2nd to the classic hopeful Mountain Bear & speedy Passion To Perform. Imperium who was 4 lengths adrift to LOI last time may show some improvement. Mangalaya Prarambh by a so far flop sire is tracking well to figure on board.
3. Auchinlech was given a light ride last time & he has never gone the mile distance, hence he is a suspect. Badge Of Honor, Forza & Turf Magic are stayers. If the trainer, who is a known to for in & out running of his animals gives the sign then BOH should record an overdue win.
4. Sloane Square has been prepared well to upset Ruben Star. Jet Fire has also run some good races to be in contention today.
5.Super Woman was the public fancy in it's maiden run. It has a very mediocre field to beat today. Sangini & Precious Angel can place.
6. Sweeping Success should sweep the opposition off based on her 4th in the Fillies Trial Stakes. Snow Ranger was a notable 2nd last time out & Logan's Run was also 2nd to speedy In The Zone. An Equal Music is tracking very well to get in place if the rider of Logan's Run takes it easy.
7 . Roayal Treasure is speedy to pull it off from another speed pedigreed Nice Guy. Scintillating Style has tracked well to place.
Blogs of Note
- 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.

BANGALORE ST LEGER A MERE FORMALITY
Sunday, July 15, 20071. BLUE VISION has been steadily prepared for long & this full sister to the Indian Oaks winner should start her campaign on a winning note. REMARKABLE STRIDE & AFEA should follow the winner home.
2. RUBY ROCKET has been an enigma so far, she is owned by a betting personality & trained by the second best trainer in the country, yet her previous runs have been dubious. She may find it difficult to win if HIGH TOWER is sent out at full throttle by the connections. SARAZEN who has had niggling physical problems for long ran a decent 2nd last time to merit place attention.
3. A straight fight between ASSOSSIATOR & ANDRONICUS. The first name has a slight edge. ENFORCER is very consistent & may find the board again.
4. COUNTRY MAN a colt by a flop sire has been vey well prepared & given two outings without being stretched. He may win at the expense of COMMANDER'S WISH & SIMPLY DANGEROUS.
5. WHISTLIND STRAITS has been waited with & braught downin class. He may whistle down the necks of FOOTSTEPSINTHESKY ,who had won on same handicap in the winters & has been reasonably prepared. KANDIATE ran a forward race & may try to run away from the others.
6. It is a mere formality for SOUTHERN EMPIRE to gain the handsome stakes. MAM Ramaswamy will try to sweep the money for places as well, though GENTLEMAN'S DEAL will fight for 2nd place.
7. DIOMEDES has won in higher class prior to being sold to the present North Indian owner who has waited well for an ideal oppurtunity to stake a gamble with this speedy son of the fastest mare of the previous century. Today the 3 year old UPPER CRUST is likely to present such an oppurtunity. Whether the wager is taken or not will be seen once serious betting begins prior to the race, DIOMEDES has been quietely prepared to win from the favourite. FEELFREE has won decently last time & has been maintaining form to make a serious race of it today.
8. MOUNTAIN BEAR has a very solid staying pedigree & he won his last start in an easy fashion. He looks like defying the heavy penalty & win from Mumbai hopeful ELUSIVE STUDY & last time runaway winner ROYAL ALCHEMIST.
9. The Byramji family is at it again like so many times before. Both their runners RENASCENT & TOP OF THE CLASS have it in them to win . But keeping in view thier previous track record only one of these two runners will be in a serious fray. FINAL DEPOSIT who ran adecent 4th last time has a fair chance. COMMAND has awesome pedigree but no trackform for support.

Bangalore Races 15 July
Saturday, July 14, 20071. KIOKO to win from THE BRAVEST & ASPIRING SEVEN.
2. CHEVERON has run with better types at Mumbai & has been given an easy ride in VAN DER STAR'S win last time. He should score over the Classically bred SOUTHERN CHIEFTAIN & the speedy READ MY MIND.
3 FIRED UP who was quietely fancied when he ran at Mumbai has been prepaered well to beat this mediocre set up of YOU'RE BEAUTIFUL & MARIENELLA. AUDRINA is likely to be out for an airing.
4. SATIN WOOD has run in better company & provided he is given a green signal by his dubious connections he should easily win. He should put it across the speedy Panchakshari . AMAZING FOREST who has not bled during the season has come down & could upset.
5. Top Delhi colt BRAHAMPUTRA who found it tough against the class of 3 year olds is at atidy weight to upset the market fancy LADY ONE. ALL DANCING ran a very good second last time & he may also give the favourite a run for money.
6. PASSION TO PERFORM won well & has the breeding to go high in scales. He may win from speedy SUNNYLAND & the very well prepared AZUREUS.
7. GOBELIN was a notable 2nd last time & with the added distance which is likly to favour him should score over the staying MILL FONTAINE who has been seriously prepared during the last fortnight. ANTONIQUE who is also tracking well has also got an equal chance of making a race of it.
8. Longshot DAMGOOD may score over ONEGINA & WINSONS who have been consistent this season.

BOUR
Sunday, July 8, 2007BOURBON KING FOR BANGALORE DERBY
1.Hakuna Matata who was given a questionable ride when finishing on last time should win from last time's failed favourite Hima's Pride. Romantic Liason should place.
2. South Star who won easy last time & who is bred to stay should win from Hidalgo & the improving Conde Nast.
3. Pret A Porte , Oro Neiro & Royal Heir have an equal chance to win in this race.
4. Laughborough who is from a sprinting blood line should score from Blink who perhaps needs more distance. Quantico has also been prepared well.
5. Regent's Park ran a forward run last time. He can score over Allonia & Wonder Falcon.
6. Bourbon King should put it across Alvarita in the Derby. Western Command ran a good 3rd in the FTS to merit place consideration.
7. Ocean Crest ran 2nd to Bourbon King & has the potential to upset Dancing Highness & Pastiche.
8. Star Luminary has been prepared very well & he should score over stablemate Real Excellence & Arturo.
9. Mystified who is no comparison to his illustrious brother should win in this modest set from Hypnotic & Luckynumbersleven.

BANGALORE RACES 07 JULY
1.Reference is a speedy filly & should win from Brar's runner Rightherightnow & Adorna who has shown out in her latest tracks.
2 Tobin with a handicap jockey is likely to fight it out with top weight Double Elite. Aggasiz may not find the distance suiting her.
3. Bastian Bay has been prepared well & has the pedigree to win. Czar Alexander has been given two mock races but this being his first run he should not win as a favourite. Whisky Bandit has showed out in his works & should run a decent race.
4. Fantasy Ridge should topple Queen Rania who is conceding weight to the field. Reuben was fined last time for his indifferent ride on Bliss who has the capabilities to run into money provided the connections try their horse. It appears M Eshwar is pending his challenge for lesser stiff company at Mysore.
5. Woman In Charge won well last time & has competed with better company before, so she may repeat at the expense of stablemate Attain .Turbo Babe is at a decent handicap to upset. No Name should also place.
6. Diabolical is carrying a load & should find it difficult to contain low weighted Running Bull. Watch out for Coral Gables . If he breaks level from the gates he has the class to beat all in the fray.
7. Our Excellence is the Day's Best. He should collar the speedy filly Astraea.
8. Elusive Fortune has been prepared well to win from Give Me The Money & Raider's Son.
9. Seize The Night has covered a lot of ground in his last win & should repeat. Neyillah & Bee For You have the handicap in their favour to make a race of it.
