SHERLOCK FOR GOVINDAPPA MEMORIAL TROPHY

Wednesday, January 24, 2018


MYSORE RACES


The start to this week has been a horrible one for followers of the sport, both at Hyderabad and somewhat in Kolkata as wager money has been looted on well backed non performing favorites.It appears all race course officials were either on holiday or simply oblivious to the fact that systems and norms are necessary to install some confidence in people to get involved in racing, is horses with no form keep on winning at the cost of awful runs of the favored ones then there wont be many to fill the stands.

BANGALORE RACES


A challenging scenario faces handicappers and the race goers today since some of the horses have not raced for more than 4 to 6 months, some raced in Mysore main season and some have raced recently in Mysore winters.
Some of the horses have been working for long and some have been worked indiscreetly away from reporting eyes as authorities have been missing or have been defunct in a way .
