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.

BRIGADE’S PRIDE was a very prominent leader till into the straight in last run, can convert today. MISSY MOONLIGHT won a hard fought race against an aged horse, has to show lots of improvement.

BRIGADE’S PRIDE-VIRTUOSO-MISSY MOONLIGHT

2. GUSTAVO was an easy winner who is a candidate for repeat win. MARIE CURIE was a good 2nd against stable mate, has a rider switch. SNOW PEAKS warmed up to beat RUMOUR PROOF who won subsequently, may run well here. I WANNA DANCE has the weight advantage, the tracks are suggestive.

3. BUCEPHALOS is a good handicapper with this mediocre trainer, the distance may not suit this son of GANGA PURNA. SENOR ENCIMA has a good rider to utilize the present form. LOWNDES SQUARE is tracking the best and has a useful rider. GLITERRATO has been well prepared, may fight for win.

4. TSAVORITE was a decent winner who is looking good in trials. AGAIN GALLOP is working very well and may show out on his sire’s precociousness. THE DARLING BOY was a non interested runner who may improve. AWARDING is very well bred but entrusted to a very poorly performing jockey.

TSAVORITE-AGAIN GALLOP

5. GOOD COMPANION is in fine form and tracking well. STAGE LIGHT ran well in last attempt but has a poor jockey now. DARK HORSE has been pulled in most outings making the horse lethargic, this good rider has to really urge the horse for response, has the best handicap. SUNNY CONNEXION won easily and may show form.BADA RUPPAIYA has come down in scales, has to find form yet.

1. UNLEASHED is from a speedy dam line and has been steadily prepared over the last two months. ELITE LAND is full brother to BRIGHT FUTURE and can win based on the last run when he was out for experience. SKY GLIDER is tracking very well but I have my doubts on the poorly performing sire and a staying type dam. ABNOBA is from the best sire of present day and this full sister to AUCHINLECH can make a race of it if tried, she is speedy in tracks.

ELITE LAND-ABNOBA-UNLEASHED

2. OPTIMUS PRIME is shining out in tracks but has a tough handicap. SADDLE QUEEN was a very easy winner in lower class with the rider looking back. SHADES OF WHITE has been given a couple of runs, should go all the way, trainer is known for holding up his horses for coups later.

SHADES OF WHITE-SADDLE QUEEN

3. AFFIRMED CROWN has to fight out here as the field is very competitive. EDMONDO is showing lots of speed in works. LOCK AND LOAD was an impressive 2nd in last run has a fight on hand once more. DESERT RULE has been denied to finish on after leading, the horse is a sitter at handicap, the connections are waiting for the good odds. THE SPARTAN has come down by loads, the trainer is biding his time so far in the season.

DESERT RULE-AFFIRMED CROWN-LOCK AND LOAD

4. SUNNY SPELL was a good winner who is bound to improve. ALPHA BABY has a decent jockey. RIP WAN VINKLE has been a disappointment so far, the tracks are good. CAPTAIN’S LOVER was 5th in last attempt, comes into reckoning on basis of some fine tracks, the connections are unreliable types.

1. APACHE INDIAN led and finished a faraway 2nd in last run, will be trying to do better now. RIVER MINSTREL is the best bred full brother to ELITE EMPIRE and RETRIBUTION, may have come to hand as the tracks are inconclusive. PRINCE BRIJENDRA has been tried over a staying trip at Pune, should be in the fighting line with the good jockey. NARA is liking the hard surface and can beat the hopeful 4 years if he warms up like last time.

NARA-PRINCE BRIJENDRA-APACHE INDIAN

2. OYSTER BLUE had blown away the field in last run and continues to track well, the competition may come from stable mate who is receiving chunks of weight, let us see if the delhi based owner can get to repeat. WHISPERING WILLOWS has not been raced at merit by the foreigner in last run, has credentials. The choice of rider on DEEP PURPLE is perplexing, may be going or not. ENTICEMENT is full sister to PAMPERED PRINCESS, the speedy type a few years ago, may show out as tracks are improved. RISING GLORY , is sister to good type ENAKSI, has a handicap chance.

RISING GLORY-OYSTER BLUE-WHISPERING WILLOWS

3. BLESSINGS won in a poor field, looks tough to do well now. CAMBIASSO has been a disappointment so far, can not be backed even though he has raced against good types. BARBARA is keen one for this trip. STRAUSS is a well bred who goes with weight advantage with a decent jockey, belongs to a trainer who wins at good odds.

STRAUSS-CAMBIASSO-BARBARA

4. WEIZHOU has back breaking weight to carry. TSESEBE has been brought down a bit. CHIMERIQUE has a decent jockey, the trip suits. IRISH QUEEN has yet to be supported by the owner, may be the day. SWAHILLI ran miserably as a favorite, it may have been a case of intentionally not trying the horse.

SWAHILI-IRISH QUEEN

5. FLARING SUN warmed up in a sprint to land the spoils ion last race , now goes over a suitable distance. BRIGHT FUTURE won all the way, has to beat the penalty. MIDSUMMER KNIGHT appeals the most after his smashing win. ROSE OF TEXAS won in friendly circumstances, can not repeat.

MID SUMMER KNIGHT-FLARING SUN-BRIGHT FUTURE

6. Looks like another race for the owner who is getting used to picking up maiden’s events regularly as all the trainers and breeders are keen to get him to buy/train horses for them respectively. NATIONAL GLORY is brother to SACRED RELIC, looks in fine condition from works. OCEAN AND BEYOND has been waited with as others were to be tried, tracks are good. TWIN SPICE is well bred to topple the favorite as he is top bred brother to decent types OUR FORTUNE and CLARION CALL. DIGNITY AMPLIFIED belongs to a decent combination of trainer, owner and rider who have been consistent. The gate practices may have brought on the filly/

7. RIVER PRIDE is half brother to ARISTOS, has been raced at all distances to find the mark, may be a bit long here. SOLOR was given an easy non try ride by the same rider. BLUEBIRD is a well bred brought in who has tracked very well like others from this top trainer, looks good here. SATSUMA STAR is from a good racer, has been tracking well and should run well at this distance.

BLUEBIRD-RIVER PRIDE-SATSUMA STAR

8. ESTEVEZ is a speedy type who is conceding weight and is stiff on handicap. PHOSPHOR is tracking fast, can trouble the speediest here. SMOKIN ACES was undone by the outside draw in last run, can go all the way, the tracks are best. WILD TORRANADO comes into reckoning based on consistency.

SMOKIN ACES-PHOSPHOR-ESTEVEZ

9. ROYAL GESTURE is maintaining form. SILVER SANDS had won all the way and the rider is repeated. VIOLETTA is best bred and had emerged with a flourish from the rear pack to nail front runners in last impressive win. SEA HONOUR is a well bred who has been kept in stables for too long, starts his carrier as a four year old as this trainer is known for delivering only with older lots.

4. ASHWA PUSHKAR was a faraway 3rd in his first outing in a million, has worked well. BREAKING MOULD is looking improved after the last run. WARLORD has run a faraway 2nd to stable mate on last occasion, has the best jockey to fight out.

ASHWA PUSHKAR-WARLORD

5. The handicapper has not done justice to his job in this race. SUCCESSOR had won by 8 lengths from GIN AND TONIC and SHUBH SHUBH when conceding about three lengths each in the President Of India Cup. The horse had come from Pune and the ratings of that centre can not be compared to Delhi’s horses who are a poorer lot. In this race a bookie may offer odds of 5 to 10 paisa to cater for the horse to have breakdown in the race or for the jockey to fall down due to the incumbent weather or what have you. Apart from the mentioned one, SENEGAL should like the short sprint.

SUCCESSOR-GIN AND TONIC-SENEGAL

KOLKATA RACES


GURGAON-10 JAN


The main contender for the Kolkata Derby are ABOLINE and, FAIR OPTION who faught out in last contest and Oaks winner SANS PAREIL. Since P Shroff is having an amazingly successful time with his horses in the recent times one could also consider BRUCKNER in the same league. ABOLINE was seen to be shortening his strides over 2000m in last run which had come after a longish break and shift over from Bangalore to this city. Considering the class and the fact that he would have improved from the last run he is still the favorite to win the Derby. Frankly I do not see FAIR OPTION , the son of a mediocre sire winning the contest. BRUCKNER is also from a very mediocre sire and though he has shown tremendous tracks and freshness, he takes on a tough bunch here. SANS PAREIL won the Oaks in a mediocre field with hardly any staying lines in contention, she has to really run well to get the measure of the colts now.

3. BLUE THUNDER has the breeding of a top horse, has been prepared well, may have come to hand. RAJASTHAN ROYALS should be considered in a scurry, the tracks are very fast. RIVER DRAGON is a well bred who got nabbed by IL TABARRO in last run, has improved. SPARKLING SPIRIT was the ride of the French jockey Breux who got suspended for pulling, the horse can deliver at good odds as is the style with her trainer.

4. ROMAN LEGION can not be fancied here based on last two runs. OCEAN STORM comes into contention on his suggestive runs, may win. PURE POWER was a forward runner who has to come up a bit more.

9. LOGAN’S RUN is working well after placing, he is due for a win. STYLISH BAY was a forward runner against better types, gets a decent chance to score now. MUSIC FOREVER was a very improved winner, may do an encore. NEED OF THE HOUR belongs to scheming type connections, take your chance.

BANGALORE RACES



A VERY HAPPY AND PROSPEROUS NEW YEAR TO ALL FRIENDS AND VISITORS TO THE BLOG



1. SKYTRAIN is a better bred here who is working impressively and has a decent jockey. BRAVO has been well prepared and he impressed in gates. BLACK SUPER STAR has the benefit of a run with the same jockey. FLAME BACK has a weak sire but a speedy mare, the tracks are very encouraging.

2. GORDIAN KNOT has handicap appeal but the rider is out of confidence. SPREAD A SMILE is tracking well. ISINBAYEVA has the best rider, the horse has been fancied before over staying trips. TRACK WONDER may place.

MYSTIC DAWN is well bred , elder ANGEL FIRE has done well in sprints, the rider is good. GLITTERING GOLD is tracking well. MISSONI was a faraway 2nd who has the weight advantage over the main rival.

4. SHOW HORSE has come down in scales. CALYPSO STAR was pipped on the post, the horse has not been consistent but has the good rider. RUBY LEGEND has a positive rider switch. MASSIMILIANO ran fairly well in the only outing and should come up well.
