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

 

4.

ASIAN WARRIOR is hiding true  capability, has credentials at this handicap.

CROWN OF STARS ran a forward race and has a rider switch.

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

LORD OF KINGS showed out in a mock, is working nicely but has a short fuze, all his 3 wins came over 1000m only.

SHADOWS OF LOVE impressed with a good finishing effort under the lower grade rider who repeats.

ROYAL PROTOCOL(5)-WIN

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

 

 

5.

GLORIOUS LAND was a good 2nd to GODS PLAN, rider repeats.

THOMAS HARDY won comfortably and retains form in tracks, should do well again.

COPPER QUEEN showed the breeding as she trounced the field in last win, should repeat unless the intent of trainer changes.

RENEGADE ran a fair 4th to TORBERT, gets the rider who won on him in the previous outing.

ADMIRAL NELSON has the try rider repeating over ideal trip.

COPPER QUEEN (4)-WIN

THOMAS HARDY(2)/RENEGADE(6)-PLACE.

 

6.

NAGDA has been  tracked for fitness, races after a long break.

STAR WAVES showed out with a fluent win, has a rookie to shake off the penalty.

BUTTERFLY is due for a win, the Mysore rookie has been called up, will try to take her all the way.

GLORIOUS VICTORY has been shown a number of gates, may be tried.

FUN LOVER  scored at good odds in lower class, rider repeats.

BUTTERFLY(3)-WIN

NAGDA(1)/STAR WAVES(2)-PLACE

7.

SUPPREME COMMNADER is a lethargic horse, had won his only race many years ago, has tracked well and  rider repeats.

BETTY BOOP has fine form , rookie may ride well.

SAY MY NAME gets a try rider, last run was terrible.

BEAUTIFUL PRINCESS was backed well over a trip despite being a maiden even at this age and obviously bit the dust, what now.

FIRE STRIKE has been worked discretely otherwise why give a ride to this rider in first run.

BETTY BOOP(3)-WIN

BEAUTIFUL PRINCESS(5)/SUPREME COMMANDER(2)-PLACE.
