MUMBAI RACES
1. ICON always done well at this centre, has worked well. STAR OF GIBRALTOR is in awesome form and should be hard to beat. BLING had finished on suggestively in last run, has been convincingly beaten by SOG before.
STAR OF GIBRALTOR-BLING.
2. WORD OF HONOUR can run well, the jockey is a non tryer. HERZELIYAH is bred for speed, has worked well. HEAVENLY PRIZE is showing out in works, , the half brother to WILD TORRANADO should be fancied by the gambling owner. VICTOR IVANOV is a failed favorite. INNER HARMONY can do well at low weights.
HEAVENLY PRIZE-HERZELIYAH-VICTOR IVANOV.
3. STRING OF MY HEART is a very speedy one, top weight is a bother. GREATNESS is in fine condition, has early speed. REBECCA has been tracked along good types and looks improved. LITTLE WARRIOR is by a world famous sire and has been kept under wraps by the canny owner, may surprise with the allowance rider. ORIENTAL SAPPHIRE is the other good bred got abroad who is coming to hand.
REBECCA-GREATNESS-STRINGOFMYHEART (Upset-LITTLE WARRIOR)
4. DICTATOR is a good sprinter, the added distance may not be to the liking. FORWARD CHAGE was a catchy runner in last run who has not won for long. VIBGYOR has been worked, may be tried. GUNS N ROSES was the unlucky looser who stumbled and lost a certain race last time, can be in the hunt again.
GUNS N ROSES-FORWARD CHARGE-VIBGYOR.
5. BALACLAVA is bred for staying and has been sharpened up with a mock race. ROYAL CREST is a well bred who should do well with this rider. NEATH is half sister to stylish NEFYN and is a prime contender here. VOLTERRA is by the top sire from a black type mare and is showing out intrials, may need a run.

6. BELMONT is tracking well. DAYS BEST is showing out in tracks, the well bred brother to speedy VIOLETTA has a fair chance. SCARLATTI has the rider but the breeding needs more distance. SILVER BIRCH is an impressive got abroad with the right connections and looks fit for the opener. ASTROMIA has not done badly in last two runs.
SILVER BIRCH-ASTROMIA-DAYS BEST.
7. HYMN PATH should like the trip in the weak field. PERFECT STRENGTH has been waited with, may be tried. PRINCE BRIJENDRA lost on the post, may run well again. CELEBRATIONS can build up on last run.

- 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.
