CHENNAI RACES
1.
EAGLE PRINCE failed as
favorite, a deliberate loss as the rider kept him far too back and allowed the
race to be won by RACE FOR THE STARS, the subsequent tracks show the horse in
fine nick, is half brother to SPARTAN X.
WHISTLE PODU was not in the
hunt in maiden outing and ran as such, has not been tracked openly since the
run, the dam was a decent performer at Kolkata.
EMELDA finished on gamely
against the well bred KNIGHT ENVIED, is an ordinary bred from a non raced dam
who has produced much rubbish in 7 previous racers, this one appeals for its
run.
GEISHA GIRL is another
ordinary bred half sister to DOUBLE SURE, has been given a number of gates.
INDIAN CORAL is a nice bred
full sister to CANTABRIA, is working impressively.
EMELDA(4)-WIN
INDIAN CORAL(6)/WHISTLE
PODU(2)-PLACE.
2.
RAFAELE ran a fair race in
first outing, has potential in this class in sprints.
STAR CONVOY had run 3rd
to EYES OF FALCON in a scurry earlier, went for easy outing last time, may be
trying under the allowance rider.
EYES OF FALCON won hard
ridden from the way back beating the hopefuls in the shadow of the post, has capability
to repeat with rider repeating.
FORT ST GEORGE has not won
for long, has not been tried this season so far.
SPIRIT OF ZEON has a try rider again, had won under him at
about this level last season.
EYES OF FALCON(3)-WIN
STAR CONVOY(2)/FORT ST
GEORGE(4)-PLACE.
3.
DEMRARA is a miler, ran a
fair 3rd to TORBET, earlier 3rd to PENANG under this
rider should be the benchmark for consideration.
ROYAL COMMANDER is a stayer, rider fell last time, earlier
win was an authentic one, has tracked fit, may repeat.
STAR TEMPLAR is the youngster
who appeals for age , handicap and manner of last win, cruising up comfortably,
has all positive indicators,is from the most unreliable connections otherwise.
PENANG is the other
youngster who impressed in last win, compares well against the last named (who
was cleverly held back in gates to be slow off) , study the earlier race in
Nov, race 23, is better placed now.
STAR TEMPLAR(4)-WIN
PENANG(6)-PLACE

side, is winner of 4 sprints, has not obliged for about a year, has not been
stretched in runs.

only.

with a good finishing effort under the lower grade rider who repeats.

SHADOWS OF LOVE(8)/CROWN OF
STARS(2)-PLACE.
