MYSTIC ENCHANTRESS is full brother to good type OHIYESA and the trainer must be fancying him at good odds.

INTIFADA-MYSTIC ENCHANTRESS-STAR OF HEARTS

3. MOONLIGHT DANCER was given an average ride last time, may deliver now. MISS MEXICO has a try jockey and is working well. LOOKING TO LUCK needs this run, the mock race may have bought him on. STICKIE WICKET DOTCOM likes a trip, has been given a run.

MISS MEXICO-MOONLIGHT DANCER-STICKIEWICKETDOTCOM

4. WINNING DESIRE won all the way and now goes with an allowance jockey to beat the penalty. ALL FOR CASH has been hiding true capabilities, the tracks are very suggestive. HERO’S DOMINANCE is coming to hand. HAPPINESS ran well enough to be in consideration now.

ALL FOR CASH-WINNING DESIRE-HAPPINESS

5. JOIN THE PARTY is being readied for a coup, the horse had run some fighting races in Bangalore last year. PERFECT BOND won well, has stiff penalty now.LOOKING TO LEAD is in fine form. GRIS RAPIDE has an immature rider after a fine win. ANSONIA is a speedy type aging horse who is looking very fit and appeals on handicap. CAFFE COFFEE is down in scales, the game horse has worked well. TINA’S TRIUMPH will be tried again as she is in fine form.

JOIN THE PARTY-ANSONIA-LOOKING TO LEAD

6. ARCHER was a speedy winner at good odds in maiden’s race, looks too good here, the connections are not reliable with public backed favorites. KING ADLER is bound to fight out, has impressed in trials. BLISS may have come up after last run. NICE GUY was in tremendous form last season, looks fit.

ARCHER-KING ADLER-NICE GUY

7. WAR HEAD is in fine form, top weight is a worry. EVANSTON was prepared and given a run, looks likely to win on backing. REGENT’S PARK is getting into shape. BRIANSTTA may grace the board again. MINCHU is at low weights.

EVANSTON-WAR HEAD-MINCHU

DAYS BEST====INTIFADA

DOUBLE---------ALL FOR CASH X ARCHER

LOOK BACK AT SIX MEETINGS OF BANGALORE SUMMERS

Monday, June 7, 2010

1. The general trend of racing so far has been punter friendly with 50 % favorites obliging, though a fair number have been at miserly odds. On the other side ,32 % “jodis” have been knocked out by outsiders winning. So don’t bank on second favorites to win, either go for the favorite or eat/lay on a “jodi” to be a winner.
2. As expected the offspring’s of BURDEN OF PRROF have done well like the last few years and so far 7 have won, more will be winning in the coming days. When in doubt go for his progeny. GASWAR has been the next best with 6 wins which shows how well he has done after being relocated at Galloping Acres/ Doaba farms whose mares stock has been nicking very well.
3. Jockey J G Sampson seems to be a real good pro in the services of Mr V Mallya’s trainers. His riding, temperament and judgment of the local conditions and opposition has been a treat . Apart from local champion Suraj , no one is in the same league. Follow the two to profit. In fact the blind followers of Suraj and Simpson must have made a bonanza on some of their wins were at good odds. I would also like to mention the tremendous improvement shown by apprentice S Zervan who is a changed rider from what he was in Western India. There is an acute shortage of good jockeys and one wishes for more of the sincere and positive kind who do justice to their mounts. Old timer jockeys have gone on the decline for various reasons, B Prakash, Y Srinath, Appu etc should be avoided when they are on favorite mounts, their present performance is disheartening, there are serious doubts about the intent as well.
4. No trainer has been consistent to be worth a mention except for the duo of Attaolhi and Dhariwal, a lot in their performance can be attributed to the BURDEN OF PROOF and SIMPSON factor. S Padmanabhan is back in business and he is the one who has always done well in summer seasons for last ten years or more. Like last year there should be some good competition from Arjun, Irfan and Neil who have some good ones in their yards.
5. The impressive winners to me have been SWEET CAROLINE, LOVE CONQUERS ALL, ELOISE, AZTEC GOLD, STRING ALONG,SUN KINGDOM, IMMENSE, CARLA in the youngsters group and SPRINT STAR, DUKE OF EDINBURGH, SHOTGUNN and SPEARHEAD in the mature group. These horse should do well in further racing .Of the beaten batch CON ARTISTE, SUNSET BOULEVARD, SIACHEN, ATHABASCA STAR, ART CONNOISSEUR, STAR ASSEMBLY, ONASSIS, TANZANITE, ALLEZ VITTE and MAKE MY DAY may redeem soon.

BANGALORE RACES


1. FRIENDLY BOND was running green under the aging jockey in last run, has a pretty weak field to tackle. MONTEDORO is tracking very well, should run a good race. LEGEND REBORN has a weak jockey, has weights in favor against the top weight. THE DARLING BOY has been a disappointment in winters, may show improvement.

FRIENDLY BOND-MONTEDORO-LEGEND REBORN

2. ANNA is coming to hand, needs this run. ONE LIFE TO LOVE had run a very encouraging 3rd when it was held up for an opening, the rider is mediocre. SCORCHING ACE is a failed favorite who may run on board. CHERELLE is the first horse to be tried for the trainer this season, has worked extensively.

ONE LIFE TO LOVE-CHERELLE-SCORCHING ACE

3. STORMY RED is by a good mare but a yet to prove sire, could not sustain in the straight in the last run, the rider has a fight on hand at top weights. VAYU PUTRA has come down in scales. PORTATONE is a speedy type who has to last out, has worked well. SPRAWLING ELEGANCE is tracking for fitness.

PORTATONE- STORMY RED- VAYU PUTRA

4. MAN DOWN UNDER has a decent chance with this jockey, has shown fitness in trials. DAMGOOD has come down to striking scales, may be tried. YES WE CAN won in a tight finish under a most ordinary jockey, is bound to run better now. SUGRIV was pulled by this jockey in winters, the horse looks to be in good condition, the trainer is one of those who has been an enigma in racing, one wonders how his owners cope up with their horses not performing or earning for years. If allowed to run on merit the horse has a good chance to win something for the hapless team.

SUGRIV-YES WE CAN-MAN DOWN UNDER

5. UNLEASHED has been showing out in tracks, the other horse from the same stables MAKE MY DAY is also a good type, which one is going to be tried, only the father and son know?. They are past masters at winning at good odds. STRING ALONG was a runaway winner and retains form, the well bred can repeat. MAGIC MILLION is working well.

STRING ALONG- MAKE MY DAY- UNLEASHED

6. PALAZZIO’S SON is the winner of sprinters cup, at top weight has to be really tops to score in this good field. D’ARTAGNAN is a speedy one who ran 3rd in sprinters cup, is tracking fast. RARE AND PRECIOUS has scales in favor, can warm up for a fight as he has worked well. ATLANTUS is in very good form. TICKET TO RIDE was an impressive runner in mock race. ORIGINALITY runs at much better scales now, has tracked well and can come back to form.

ORIGINALITY-PALAZZIO’S SON-D’ARTAGNAN

7. CAMMORA has worked well and likes this distance. DON VALENTINO is a good type from Hyderabad who is impressing a lot in tracks. SALONI failed as a favorite in last run, may fight out being fresh. YAS MARINA is showing out in trials, the last win was authoritative.

YAS MARINA-DON VALENTINO-SALONI

8. DUCKWORTH is a game horse for this trip. MOON MEMORIES has no tracks? CRIMINAL LAWYER is an uncertain type, has a poor field to beat. SPANDAU BALLET is tracking well, the trip is ideal.

CRIMINAL LAWYER-SPANDAU BALLET-DUCKWORTH

9. MAN UNITED has been very well tracked, it is unusual for this trainer. SHER DIL is a good handicapper. HAMPTON COURT is showing improvement in tracks. GOOD COMPANION was being fancied in the washed out race, has come down in scales. YOU’RE KISSES DUE ran an easy 5th in 3 year olds.

MAN UNITED-YOU’RE KISSSES DUE-GOOD COMPANION

DAYS BEST====FRIENDLY BOND

BANGALORE RACES


1. AGAIN GALLOP looks a good thing based on previous performance and the fast tracks, the meager rates will be a dampener. MYTHOS is working well and the half brother to OBAN should run well. RECHARGED has been scrubbed in works, should be looking to place. ALLEZ VITTE is a costly got abroad who has RIVERMAN (one of the tops) as the broodmare sire, the colt looks soft in tracks, can surprise with the good jockey.

AGAIN GALLOP-MYTHOS-RECHARGED

2. SON OF THE SOIL is going over an uncomfortable distance for the breed at top weight, has the jockey to pull it off. YAMAS has impressed in preparation in winters, the full brother to POWER GRID may warm up to a fight. THE GORDIAN KNOT is in with an outside chance. GUN POWDER has been showing zest in morning work outs.

YAMAS-SON OF THE SOIL

3. MY MUSKETEER and KICKING KING had finished on from the rear bunch to get on board in one of the most well contested race of the season, both were at good odds and will be fancied based on that run. YES I CAN is the winner of a race who has a better jockey now. ZAMALEK has been running in patches, may upset.

ZAMALEK-KICKING KING-MY MUSKETEER

4. SHOTGUNN has been showing out in tracks, the last win was very stylish, the handicap is stiff. SIX SHOOTER has been a disappointment, may run well. TANZANITE has the scales in favor now, the rookie jockey has to ride well for a positive result. GREENBRO has run well in sprints, the jockey is good.

SHOTGUNN-TANZANITE-GREENBRO

5. HIGHLAND CROWN is best at handicap but no tracks after shifting here and running first time on the sloppy track are a disadvantage. TIMELESS TREASURE was a bit late when going down to SPARK OF GOLD as a favorite, the added penalty and the extra distance are both worrisome for this son of Razeen. SPEARHEAD will be fancied based on his going away win last time, may be burdened by the extra trip as also the negative handicap.. GLORIOSA was slow out and ran poorly in last run, the distance suits.

TIMELESS TREASURE-SPEARHEAD

6. CAPRIOSKA has been well prepared, needs a bit more in distance. FLAMING LAMBHORGINI has been judiciously worked, has won at a higher handicap before. STILL WILL is a game sprinter, may throw a scare to the fancied runners. ALPHA BABY was very impressive last season in winning thrice, has a chance to carry on with the good work. DREAM PARK is a speedy one who will lead the way.

ALPHA BABY-DREAM PARK-FLAMING LAMBHORGINI

The feminine named colt AILSA had worked very pleasingly last winter and is maintaining form. FAME AND GLORY is brother to decent types ROYAL AMBER and RUFFIANO, the tracks are very encouraging. DUCHESS OF YORK has a very ordinary jockey, the breeding draws attention. SPARK OF GALAXY has been given an easy run, has speed to surprise.

AILSA-SPARK OF GALAXY-FAME AND GLORY

7. TIME FLIES belongs to an old hand owner , the horse has been given illusive runs in winters, watch money flow. ON A ROLL was being quietly fancied after a very long time last week when rains terminated the proceedings, the horse is due to9 deliver at lucrative odds only. PINNAKINI was a steady favorite in the canceled race, now has more serious contenders in the fray and the small time trainer may sleep out today. LITTLE SPLENDOUR has been given an easy run, will run a forward race now.

TIME FLIES-ON A ROLL-LITTLE SPLENDOUR


DAYS BEST====SHOTGUNN

ELEMENTTO STYLE-ARABIAN MEMEORIES-HAKUNA MATATA
