BANGALORE RACES
1. TOWERS OF HANOI has been given 15 tracks since
last run, can show lots of improvement even with a work jockey at top weight.
VOLT has been on the up, win may continue to elude this one. ASTONISHING has
impressed in works, has come down by quite a few kilos. FRUIT KING had failed
as a favorite in winters, has been sent on regular tracks, may run well with
this rider. THE GENTLE DON is still a maiden, was a prominent runner last time,
has come down a lot in ratings.
TOWERS OF HANOI-THE GENTLE DON
-VOLT.
2. NOCTURNAL HUNTER was a keen runner last time,
gets a jockey to perform. SWEET ANGEL has run well last time, somehow the owner
is not getting any winners despite a number of horses. GOLDEN PRINCESS should
win easily in this group, study the close race in Mumbai just next to ALAINDAIR
, but the stables are most unreliable. JEWEL LADY is a speedy oldie with a good
rider.
GOLDEN PRINCESS-NOCTURNAL
HUNTER-JEWEL LADY.
3. FIRE STORM has top weight, last run was good,
may be fancied. HILLTON is on demotion, has been tracking well. AFFRIKAH runs
after a long break, has been prepared and has handicap chance. SAVAGE HEART has
a very weak jockey, may not run well. THEJAGUAR remains unreliable.
AFFRIKAH-FIRE STORM-HILLTON.
4. MAJESTIC REWARD had won going away with rider
looking back, will fight out. BRIGHT LADY has run against some good types in
Mumbai, has worked well thru the season and has a chance, has a ordinary sire.
TO THE MANOR BORN has been summering well in morning works, may be out for an
airing for the breeder owner to test her only at the home centre. STIMULATE
appears to be a good one from the weak sire, maintains form.
BRIGHT LADY-MAJESTIC
REWARD-STIMULATE.
5. ARYAN WARRIOR has
been given a run and has shown speed in works. BLACKBIRD is from a non winning
type sire, the run in winters was against some better types, horse may do well,
lack of a race is a negative factor. MANTRA was a forward runner who is
pleasing in works, will have a bold show. BERING SEA has been given a run, the
trainer strikes at good odds only, horse has worked well.
MANTRA-BLACK BIRD-BERING SEA
6. NEXT
MOVE has a rookie who has to be able to run the horse well in a fight, last run
is an indicator. PACK UR BAGS has been given a run, gets a strong rider now.
Watch out for BALA’S GLORY who has been a non performer for years and has last
won in higher class. SEBRIGHT has not run for long, looks fit from tracks.
PACK UR BAGS-NEXT MOVE-BALA'S GLORY.
7. RUMOUR HAS IT has improved much, but despite a
fine win he can not be considered while conceding weight to same age group.
LOVE IS LIFE is another maiden’s winner who can improve. OUR LOVE is on the up
and may do well. WHIMSICAL has lots in favor now, looks forward. APPY’S PRIDE
has been tracked well.
WHIMSICAL-APPY’S PRIDE-RUMOUR HAS
IT.
8. SCENIC BLAST is a speedy one who will lead
home, may sustain under this rider. SMITHSONITE surprised all with a runaway
win after coming out from hibernation, will try to repeat. SIMPLETON is a
similar one who runs after long, can speed in. POINT TAKEN has been fooled
around with by the previous trainer, can do well.
