PUNE RACES
1. FLASHING FLAME is over-raced, the distance is more. ROCCOCO has been over this trip before, the last run appears to have bought him on, should run well. MILES AND MORE belongs to a betting owner, should run a good race as he is a confirmed stayer.
ROCCOCO(2)-MILES AND MORE(3)
2. EXPENSIVE AFFAIR runs in front but fades out, gets another chance. BU ATTIFEL is in fine form. PARIS HILTON has a decent chance in a sprint. RAVE ON may run well under the allowance jockey.

3. YAAN does not have initial speed but finishes on like a jet, appeals on handicap. FOREST NATIVE is full brother to speedy CARLOS , the tracks are good. BORZU AGAIN showed improvement in last run, may run to win. ARABIAN GUEST was a notable 3rd while finishing on in last run.
YAAN(1)-ARABIAN GUEST(9)-FOREST NATIVE(2)
4. SPICA belongs to the higher class, the tracks show fluency. HEIFITZ is hiding true potential. PILLATUS returns after injury, badly needs a run. STELLAR AFFAIR has a good jockey, impressed in gates.
SPICA(1)-STELLAR AFFAIR(8)-PILLATUS(7)
5. TOUCH OF LAND ran erratically yet won, should improve. GLOBAL SPIRIT is on the up, the tracks are good. SLIK KIT has run better than the competitors here, comes into contention straightaway. SOPHIE is bound to improve. LA JOIE DE VIE ( JOY OF LIVING) has been well prepared, may need a run.PHOSPHOR may need a bit of distance.

6. CAMEO is a fine sprinter, the tracks are good. WILD TORANNADO may run on board . SPITZ failed in last run, should be given another chance. ROMAN BEAUTY is down in weights.
CAMEO(1)-SPITZ(7)-ROMAN BEAUTY(8)
7. VANTAGE won well & the tracks are indicative of a repeat performance. QUEENS COURT is being urged in works. GALACTICA is well bred to like this distance. ARBUDH who failed as a favorite may show better performance over this distance.

- 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.
