MUMBAI RACES
1. POMME DE TERRE had finished ahead of TABAR at Pune, has been a failed favorite for the trainer whose horses have a habit of loosing as public fancies. TABAR has taken a long time to come to hand, the tracks are unconvincing. SEEN IT ALL has been patiently waited with, may be ON. BLAU HIMMEL is again going to be a tryer under this jockey.
SEEN IT ALL-TABAR-POMME DE TERRE
2. THE BRAVE HEART has been a filler in many races, goes over this scurry where he may make it all the way as he has come down a lot, age not withstanding he is an upset candidate. MONARCHOS goes under sufferance once again. SECRET TALK has a chance here if ridden up front. ONUS PROBANDI is a winner of two races in a sprint in lower class, may be tried.
THE BRAVE HEART-ONUS PROBUNDI-SECRET TALK
3. TRIUNFO is running too soon after a grinding run, has a decent handicap chance with the jockey switch. RIVER GLORY had failed last season when backed down, has been well prepared, may be able to convert the weight advantage. SENTIMENTS has fitness problems. CELTIC MANOR has bare back weight and a foreign rider for a good trainer.
RIVER GLORY-TRIUNFO-CELTIC MANOR
4. PRIAPUS has been raced over middle distances. AGHA is an aged horse capable of running well based on last run. ROMANTIC IMPACT has failed to deliver in this class, has a weak field except for the favorite. BLUE DANUBE is in tremendous form to go for a hat trick at low weights.
BLUE DANUBE-AGHA
5. DIO MIO has ben given a run, the trip is ideal. SAINT VINCENT was withdrawn under disputable circumstances and the connections have pitched him for this grueling distance, may be a case of over confidence but the trainer is defying the logical ways this season. DESERT DYNAMITE is a decent stayer who is bound to be in the fray.
DIO MIO-DESERT DYNAMITE
6. STAR OF ROSES had won as a favorite and now has to face the field with a winner’s penalty, the tracks are good. GREY PHANTOM has improved. TENDER ROMANCE has been painstakingly prepared, the got abroad has the jockey flying in from Kolkata for this ride only. GOLDEN HEART has a decent breeding.
TENDER ROMANCE-STAR OF ROSES-GOLDEN HEART
7. BEYOND BELIEF is a good type for this distance. RED ROMEO is in at a good handicap and the run behind OASIS STAR puts him in top spot. CELESTIAL WAY has a tough task in this field. SEA PRINCESS is game for this distance.
RED ROMEO-SEA PRINCESS-BEYOND BELIEF
8. SPELLBINDER is a well bred who showed out with an emphatic win, can repeat as she is working well. ROCKEBY VENUS has been given reducing runs, may run well with the experienced jockey. LAKHA DEMA won well and may fight out again as she has started racing late. ROYAL PORTHCAWL is a failed favorite who has weight advantage to fight for win at this distance.
SPELLBINDER-ROYAL PORTHCAWL-LAKHADEMA
9. FIAMMA has to beat the penalty. ROAMING FAME is a speedy type who has the top jockey. ALOHAMORA is an unreliable type. HIGHLAND VISION is a winner from lower class who is tracking well.
ROAMING FAME-ALOHAMORA-HIGHLAND VISION

- 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.
