Bangalore Races 13.07.2013

Cardigan Bay, Artic Attraction, Placervilles Glory and Wind Surfer seem to be in with a chance. Quite an open race, but, if I am to make a choice it will be Wind Surfer followed br Artic Attraction.

As i had written earlier, Spiritual Star would have beaten Cirque De Soleil in race number 273 on March 23 2013 but for not running green at the most crucial part of the race and Cirque De Soleil running today as a 91 rated animal after two wins this season and Spiritual Star still running in a 40-65 race and with a better rider to guide its fortunes that is Suraj Narredu vis-a-vis S Zervan Spiritual Star should be a good thing tomorrow.

Wind Force was really running green throughout the race last time and with Blinkers on today might win, but still, I think the race should be avoided.

Let us have a look at the result of Fillies Trial Stakes. Amelia finished first, Beauty is Truth was second. Marinsky was third, Southern Sky was sixth, Highraaz was seventh and the favorite Starry Eyes finished in the ruck. Except Beauty is Truth all others have chosen to take on The Derby tommorow and the irony is Beauty is Truth is to take on a maiden opposition where after almost two seasons and so many maiden races being completed only the leftovers are left. If Beauty is Truth cannot win tommorow then I do not know how to pick a winner.

This being a Terms race for 3 years old Apparition is getting weight all round. It has run 4 times and won two of the four races one the maiden and a race for 20-45 category on may 25 this season. On the other two occasions it has not touched the board, first was in the Kunigal Brreders Produce Stakes in Mumbai where it finished tenghth but was only six lengths away. The second time was in the Fillies Trial Stakes this season wherein it finished ninth but was still only 6.5 lengths adrift of the winner. Hence, I feel, Apparition, should win this race. The only threat I see is My Lakshmi who won well though was not fancied and with a weak rider to guide.

I think the time has come for Game Dancer to have its last hooray. I will back it in win and place tommorow.

I Say if was not slowly away by more than the three lengths it lost to Spiritual Star in race number 98 on 23.06.2013 it would have definitely finished much closer, though, I don't think it would have won. Hence, my first choice will be I Say followed by Shivalik Fire. If you back one dont forget to hedge with the other.

I think with P S Chouhan to guide Right On Time I think should win. The horse has won at a rating of 30 gone upto 45 and ran a close second in the higher class loosing by one length to Next move who was carrying 1.5 Kgs less and was being ridden by P S Chouhan. Next Move won its next race again at a rating of 52 and here we have Right On Time as a 33 rated animal in the lower class. Right On Time I feel should win this race without much ado.
