DELHI RACES
The race card for Delhi gives the feel of Gymkhana races with 50% races in the lowest class where it is most difficult to separate the hopefuls from hidden schemers.
1. BLACK VIRGIN is a speedy one who should run well in the first run of season, can upset. ENGLISH POWER is tracking well. FOROZAAN has the benefit of a close run in the season’s opening day, may score now. CONQUEROR’S FLAME returns from injury , may be waited with for check on fitness. MANTHARA has come down to scratch and has now been scrubbed in tracks, should place.
FOROZAAN-MANTHARA-BLACK VIRGIN.
2. TAKE A CHANCE own in a tight finish and should find it difficult to repeat. MASTER CROWN did not run as expected last week, has a chance. SILVER FLAME can sprint well here. PRETTY GOOD is by the speedy sire and may runaway in open low class.
PRETTY GOOD-MASTER CROWN-TAKE A CHANCE.
3. KA CHING is an aged horse who may throw in challenge with a forward attempt. LILY is a youngster who is tracking well and should win easily here, the rider has to hold his nerves. DEV PUTRA has worked well. JOVIAL is the speedy one who has handicap in favor, but expecting Raza to score twice so quickly will be two much.
LILY-DEV PUTRA.
4. FEARLESS TIGER won in a very close heap, it will be difficult for this better rider to defy the penalty. LITTLE CUT has been given a run, has speed to do well with the allowance rider. TEZ RAFTAAR is tracking fine. MALABAR GOLD has done good in work outs, may surprise. HAPPY GO LUCKY is the other one from the same stables as the first and second mentioned, has an ordinary jockey to build on last fair effort. BEST OF LUCK is looking sharper after the opener, may fight out.
LITTLE CUT-MALABAR GOLD-BEST OF LUCK.
5. ASHWA PAYALIA and PACE MAKER have won in higher class before, last week both ran like duds, improvement may be expected. ROSE is looking in fine trim and has age on side. FASCINATING MEMORY has won at these weights before. AIR FORSE ONE ran well below expectations, may defy logic and do well.
ROSE-AIR FORSE ONE-PACE MAKER.
6. REVENGEFUL KNIGHT is tracking week. GENIOUS BOY should benefit from last run. SPLENDID MAN is tracking well, distance suits. KIANA has managed to win the fillies trials and that is all, needs a run. DON’T BE SILLY showed lots of speed and has form to repeat easily.
DON’T BE SILLY-SPLENDID MAN-GENIOUS BOY.

- 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.
