1.JEDI KNIGHT had failed as a favourite at this handicap wuth the same rider ,the trainer/owner combination does not evoke much confidence. WOLF is at an upsetting handicap. IMPERIAL DANCER is tracking well. PEAKABOO was pulled last time , he looks well prepared.GIRL NEXT DOOR may exploit the drop in handicap ,though the rider is average.
PEAKABOO-GIRL NEXT DOOR-JEDI KNIGHT
2.SENSUOUS TOUCH should steamroll the opposition . AWESOME FIGHTER is speedy & has a try jockey who will try to run away with the horse.LIVE IT UP has a speedy pedigree, may run close.ROYAL ARTIST was a close forward runner last time.
SENSUOUS TOUCH-AWESOME FIGHTER-ROYAL ARTIST
3. AL ZAZEERA is a game sprinter who despite his age shows lot of early speed.ANCIENT PRINCESS has a speedy pedigree & has been well rested & prepared for the day.PRINCESS EMILLY is tracking well.AMAZING FLORA has been running forward races over 1400m, may like the shorter trip.
ANCIENT PRINCESS-AMAZING FLORA-PRINCESS EMILLY
4. READ MY MIND won start to finish over 1400m ,he was an impressive 3rd to DIABOLICAL in a mock race. He will fight it out even over 1600m. MILFORD has the pedigree to stay,though his manner of running suggests he is a sprinter, he is the best in trackwork.MY FRIEND PAUL has been fairly consistent & will run a good race .ROMANTIC SCENE appeals on weight,he is well prepared .
ROMANTIC SCENE-READ MY MIND-MILFORD
5.SANGINI has been fairly forward in her runs ,she is from a stable which has animals placing but not winning. SIMPLY DANGEROUS was a failed favourite in one of his runs, may be at it seriously. SHISHAM has been well prepared & given a run.ANOOSHEEK has been on the tracks but his runs are backwards.
SHISHAM-SANGINI-SIMPLY DANGEROUS
6.WEST COAST EAGLE is well rested & prepared to fight out today.ROYAL SCANDAL has not been involved in serious runs during the last two seasons , he is at a decent handicap & has been tracking well.MAGICAL SPIRIT is a 1400m horse who is poorly placed at handicap, may be on the board.
ROYAL SCANDAL-WEST COAST EAGLE-MAGICAL SPIRIT
7 . SUAVE has tracked well & has the jockey with whom he won last year.PURPLE BLAZE is maintainng winning form.HAVANA was a good 2nd last time ,may win today.SNEAK PREVIEW is showing out in work, can upset.

- 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.
