Mysore Races 30.08.2013

Today trainer Z Darashah will be presenting a cup instituted in the memory of his late father Safi Darashah. He has only one runner during the day that is Behram in the first race. Behram in the last 10 months has been cleverly brought down from a rating of 61 to 35 and with a allowance claiming jockey in the saddle will run effectively at a rating of 27. Out of the six victories of Behram the last three were in the higher category that is 40-65. The horse has been tracking well too and I think Mr Darashah will want to take home the cup for sentimental reasons.

1.BEHRAM    2. Too Cold To Hold    3. Royal Prodigy

Lovely Lady is cut above this bunch and should not find it difficult here. Triumphant may follow. Sunday Cruz if a jobber will definitely place. It is at a rating of 43 and can run in the lower category of 20-45 also. But, the jockey choice indicates might be a jobber.

1. LOVELY LADY    2. Sunday Cruz    3. Triumphant

Flying Tricolour, Cielo Signore, Alcazaar and Divine deliverance look to be the main contenders here and I am unable to decide among these. Make your pick.

Keukenhof is another who looks best in this set and should be followed by Azure fireand Mr Carpe.

Immense and Bold Police should fight it out and I personally like Immense.

Talisker basically is not a sprinter. Absolute Majority has gone up in handicap. Hence, I do not like these two market fancies here. As I had mentioned in my earlier posts the handicap of horses belonging to trainer Sharat Kumar does not come down very easily. Smooth Glider is one horse of this stable which has come down well. In August 2012 the horse has won at a rating of 81 in Mysore beating Cape ferrat. It had gone up tp 90 and now has come down to 68 and with an allowance claiming jockey will effectively run at 64 a neat drop of 17 points from its last win. As far as the form is concerned in the seven starts in the recently concluded Bangalore season it has placed a close fifth 2.75 lengths behind the winner in the first start and [laced a close third 1.75 lengths behind the winner in the second start.

Looks to be quite an open race with Indian royalty, Royal Surprise, Hard To Pin Down, Sumitomo and Potomac being the contenders here. Make your pick from these.
