MUMBAI RACES 01.12.2013

For Archie the race I feel is over bar the shouting.

In its last run Warrior Prince was done away by the draw. It was drawn 22 in a 1000 m race, else it might have turned the tables on Mykonos (ran a good second to Dancing Prances in the higher class), and with Sandesh available to guide it should not loose.

Thumb rule and to be avoided.

Cyclops, The Big Bull, Vanguard and Malkia look to be the main contenders here. I personally would go for Cyclops.

Discourse, Grand Gibraltar and Your Royal Majesty may fight out for the honors.

Glorious Reward and Sydney may fight it out.

Providence and Indian Touch should fight it out, and , I personally would go for Providence.

Toroloco, Onasis, Storm Tracker and Neona are the prime contenders here.

Haunting Moments and Star of Babylon may fight it out.

A thumb rule race and to be avoided.

My bets for the day:

Warrior Prince for win

Cyclops for win

HYDERABAD RACES 01.12.2013

Please refer to my blog on Hyderabad races of 27.11.2013, wherein I had stated that if Cornwallis is the favorite it is to be avoided as jockey Chary's performance on favorites is dubious. I for one was not totally satisfied with Chary,s effort. Today I feel that Cornwallis should not loose today.

A thumb rule race and definitely to be avoided. Having said this I would like to point out some facts to you. Katahakali, has had 57 career runs, and has not run in the lowest class till date. Yes, it is its first run in 0-25 category. It has won four times, first at a rating of 35, then at 40, and then at 50 and finally again at 50. Just give it a thought.

Deal Maker and Musical Note should fight it out.

Kohinoor Wish though looks class apart but being a handicap race has to concede lots of weight all round. Anyway, being a thumb rule race better avoid it.

Shamrock Lady is cut above and too superior to this bunch and should not loose.

Graceland, Looking for Love and Princess Cruise look to be the main contenders here.

Another thumb rule race and to be avoided. However, the race does not look to go beyond August Kranti and Itsy Bitsy.

My bets for the day:

Cornwallis for win

Shamrock Lady for win.

BANGALORE RACES 30.11.2013

Ethopian had a good mock race on 02.11.2013 and was to run on 09.11.2013. It was the ante post favorite but was withdrawn as it was found to be lame on right fore due to a sprained splint. It has given two good spurts on 20.11.2013 and 25.11.2013. Inspite of a weak rider in C Harish I feel the horse will not loose on sheer blood lines and the track work. It is a half brother to Totalitarian (reached the highest class in Mumbai), Royal Charter (reached a rating of 74 and won at 61 in Kolkotta) and Black Dahlia ( won at 59 in Kolkotta).

Nesto is bred for speed and is tracking well too. It is full brother to Quick Fire who had its maiden run on 27.10.2013 and won very impressively in Pune. Although there is a difference of one year between the two, ther are running with a difference of only one month. Hence I feel that Nesto will win.

A thumb rule race and definitely to be avoided.

Silhouette, Tradition, Optimus Zone and Zizzi may fight it out. Make your choice from amongst these four as the winner will emerge from these only.

See Bright, Chiron, Magnomical, Zermatt and Cocktail Circuit all lool to be in with a chance, I personally feel that the better riding of Suraj Narredu might make See Bright come through.

Diamonite has had 15 career runs. Out of these, it was ridden by jockey Suraj Narredu six times. Out of these, it has won four times and once jockey suraj had a fall and did not finish. It has lost only once by a neck to Cirque De Soleil. Diamonite was rated at 54 and Cirque De Soleil was at 51(three points less). Cirque De Soleil has won its last race at rating of 76 and this season on Nov 15 narrowly lost to Zultanite in the highest class (Cirque De Soleil was at 91). Hence, I feel, with Suraj Narredu to guide, Diamonite just should not loose here.

Marinsky has had a very good mock race. Its run in the Fillies Champion Stakes in the summer was also very impressive. Alcazaba's last run was also very much improved. Both these horse should fight it out.

Prince of Darkness and Rebuttal's hope may fight it out.

The Guardian, Natural View and Raaga look to be the main contenders here.

KOLKOTTA RACES 29.11.2013

Although the day starts off with a thumb rule race, I feel that we can have a good bet in this race. Iron Lady out of its seven career starts was on the board the last five times and has finished a creditable second on two occasions, both times I feel a better effort in the saddle might have turned the tables. Today with the leading jockey of the country A Sandesh in the saddle I feel it will not loose.

Snow Ball after winning two races in western India migrated to Kolkotta at a rating of 50 and won a race at a rating of 48 (a 40-66 category race) and was penalised 13 points for that win and had gone up to 61 rating points. The horse has been very cleverly brought down in handicap and is today rated at 46 and is running in the lower class and is being entrusted to Ps Chouhan I feel should not loose.

In the Twilight and Petaloid may fight it out.

Royal Scots is running on demotion. It has won in the same class with Sandesh in the saddle who is back on it again. Noble and Nice had a very good and impressive mock race. I feel that one of the two will win here.

Double Do looks cut above this opposition and I feel should not find it difficult to win here.

Valerosa won well last time. Modus Vivendi after migrating to kolkotta from western India has had two good mock races. I feel that these two should fight it out.

Arktouros, Berlusconi and Snowscape should fight for honours here.

The most confusing race of the day. The reason for my saying this is if you watch the mock race held on 23.11.2013 the commentrator says that Treasure Island has finished second and in the print media also it is reported as such. But if you watch the mock race it is very clear that the horse finishing second is donning the colors of Mr. Deepak Khaitan and in the race today the horse is in the colors of Dr. MAM Ramaswamy. Treasure Island is the best bred and had a very good mock but is not being ridden by the stables first jockey. Pretty Woman had a good win and is carrying a penalty for that. Then you have Marilyn who is also well bred and had a mock race and is entrusted to the stables first jockey.

Scuderia looks the best of the lot and should not loose.

My bets for the day:

Iron Lady for win

Snow Ball for win

Double Do for win

Scuderia for win

MYSORE RACES 27.11.2013

The Back Bencher and Ultimate Princess have the benefit of a run. Although the former has finished ahead, I feel the run of Ultimate Princess more impressive and it will come on and finish ahead today. Then you have Dancing Tableux and Rising Rani the first timers who have been tracking well. Dancing Tableux who was accepted to run last time was withdrawn because of a BTF ban. I personally will go in for Dancing Tableux who is the most well bred of the lot and has been tracking very well too.

A thumb rule race and to be avoided, but, I feel that Gambit and The Senator may fight it out.

Bandito and Coffee Time are the main contenders here.

Again a thumb rule race and to be avoided. However, Aerial Acrobat, Amber Star and shining Fame are the main contenders here.

I feel Absolute Pleasure is a bit cut above this bunch and the race is over bar the shouting for Absolute Pleasure.

Maverical won well last time and in a very smart time too, but, the jockey choice today is pathetic to say the least. I feel taht Erica though running after a lay off might account for this set here.

Crisp, Demanding Format, Lad Lady and Ashkan are the main contenders here. Since Ashkan and Lad Lady are stablemates lets ignore Ashkan as it is being ridden by an apprentice. Crisp I feel is more of a 5 or 6 furlong horse. That leaves us with Demanding Format and Lad Lady. The last time when they met on June 26 2013 Demading Format had taken over the running in the straight and was shaping like a winner when Lad Lady came with a long stretch run and had the measure of Demanding Format by two lengths. Lad Lady is worse of by 3.5 Kgs when compared to that run. But the point to be noted here is that Lad Lady was ridden by Trevor who  i feel is not a very forceful rider and only horses who are superior to the bunch win in his hands. Srinath will be at least 2 to 3 lengths better. Hence, I feel that Lad Lady should not find it difficult here.

Historica and The world is Mine may fight it out.

My bets for the day:

Absolute Pleasure for win

Lad Lady for win

BANGALORE RACES 23.11.2013

If not for jockey Ryan Marshall, I would have suggested Faith And Toil as a good bet for the day. Hence, Tic Tac Toe, for the simple reason that it is entrusted to jockey Suraj Narredu also comes into the reckoning.

Clever Trick is just too good for this bunch and I feel will not get beat.

A very ordinary bunch of runners. An avoidable race.

Conrod met one better in Vigorous last time and should not find it difficult to score here. It can be backed with confidence.

Castle Stuart, now that it has seen the winning post, should definitely repeat.

Wind Wonder has been very heavily penalized for its last two runs. It was penalized 20 points for its first win and 28 points for its second win. Thus has gone upto a rating of 71 from 28 in just two wins. I personally feel, that it might be difficult for it to defy this penalty. Light of Success on the other hand had the beating of Santa Monica (who won twice at Hyderabad) carrying 2 kgs more. Hence, I feel that Light of Success will come out trumps.

Sovereign Rule is a half brother to Saddle Up a multi classic winner in India and who won races abroad in Malaysia and Singapore also. I personally feel that Sovereign Rule will go one better on Saddle Up. Southern Emperor, who is right now one of the leading pretenders for the spot of the best horse in the country (having won the Mysore Million, 2000 Guineas and the Mysore Derby and today rated at 108) was made to look pedestrian by Sovereign Rule on level terms. Sovereign Rule still running at a rating of 48 should be a racing certainty if it ever was.

Pack Your Bags with jockey Suraj Narredu to guide its fortunes might pull it off.

My bets for the day: Conrod, Clever Trick, Castle Stuart, Light of Success, Sovereign Rule and Pack Your Bags

BANGALORE RACES 22.11.2013

An ordinary bunch of runners. Aashikara, Ungoogleable and Glamour Boy may fight it out.

Bold Majesty has the benefit of a run under its belt. However, I, feel that Blitschenelle,  Star of Destiny and the stablemate of Bold Majesty, Fortaleza will give a tough fight. I personally would go for Fortaleza.

If within a year of winning a race in the 20-45 category you cleverly bring down your horse to the lower category of 0-25 and entrust it to the best jockey in the country, it would be foolish to look beyond for a winner. YES I am talking about Well Known. Although it is a thumb rule race I still feel that a bet should be on  on Well Known.

Agostini and Regal Boast are the prime contenders here. However, I feel that the difference in the weights and the riding of Dasrath Singh might carry the day for Regal Boast.

Valahak ic cut above the class in this set here, and I dont think it will get beat.

Here again, Turf Striker looks superior to the bunch and should bring the beacon home.

Dominica, Nocturnal Hunter, Presidents Rule and Isle of Fire look to be the main contenders here. Make your choice from amongst these four.

Although the race was declared null and void, still Absolute Red was backed to the exclusion of its rivals and won well too. On that run it just should not loose today.

MUMBAI RACES 21.11.2013

As usual the day starts with a thumb rule race. However, Vaile Rouge has been shifted to the stable of trainer Narendra Lagad from S N Joshi, definitely a positive switch. Narendra Lagad has another runner in New Star who has been running below par till now and will a spring a surprise whenever its master intends to do so. Hence, I feel that the race belongs to trainer Narendra Lagad.

Reckless looks too good for this bunch and I dont feel should find difficult to tackle this lot. Out of its thrre starts, it has placed a very good second in the hands of hopeless Shelar and in the next outing with a very bad draw ran a close third to Beforememoryfades (who won again subsequently on the first day of this season). It was drawn sixteen and Kamlesh could not put the horse on an even keel throughout the race and the horse ran green.Should make amends.

Mauna Kea and Summer Eclipse should fight it out. Make your choice between these two.

Aigaion has had a very impressive mock race. If its Pune runs are taken with a pinch of salt, then it comes out as the best runner of the bench. Mint Approach and The Ministerian are also in the reckoning.

I think here is a horse which can be made the best bet of the day. I am discussing Silsila, which is bred for spped and is running in a scurry. Consider this. In its first outing, it has the beating of Yoy're The Boss, Panthera and Yello Zone. You're The Boss, today, is rated at 43 (won at a rating of 31). Panthera, today, is rated at 59 (won at a rating of 40). Yellow Zone, today, is rated at 55 (won a race at a rating of 46). When compared, Silsila is running at a rating of 32, tracking well, a youngster, easily becomes the best bet of the day.

I will ignore the last run  of Dancing Prances. I fveel it is a little cut above the class and will not find it difficult to account for this mediocre bunch.

Quick Fire again here is cut above the class and should not loose.

MYSORE RACES 20.11.2013

As usual the day starts with a thumb rule race. However, the horses in contention here are Truth And Faith, Stars And Stripes and Rich Rogue. Out of these I personally like Rich Rogue who has really come down a lot in handicap. But for jockey Vinod Shinde I would have been tempted to have a bet on Rich Rogue.

This again is a thumb rule race, and the horses in contention here are Secret Treasure ( just because it is a 3 year old), Abbys Baby and Magnifique. I personally like Magnifique.

Persian and Ice Splendour should fight it out and I feel that Ice Splendour has an edge.

Alabama looks to be the best of the lot and I feel should not loose today.

Kripa, Flash Time, Ayman and The Alchemist seem to be in the reckoning and one of these might win.

Yakeen and Duma are the main contenders here and I feel Duma definitely has an edge. In fact, both started their career together in the same race and Duma had the beeter of Yakeen by 3/4 of a length even  after a slow getaway.

So Fast is cut above this bunch and should not find it difficult to win here.

Esoterical, Time Flies and Sky High should fight it out. I, for one, feel that Sky High inspite of M D Paswan in the saddle looks to be a better proposition.

Real Potential and Little Athena should fight it out and the better riding abilities and capabilities of Jockey John might give an edge to Real Potential

HYDERABAD RACES 17.11.2013

Go For Gold looks to be in rousing form and with a positive change in jockey should not find it difficult to tackle this lot. I will go for a bet on Go For Gold for win.

Being a terms race, Racing Ahead is much much better placed when compared to all other runners. But, its last run in Mysore Derby was so bad that it might be a little risky to back it. Avoidable.

Cornwallis was withdrawn last time out as it had hurt its leg the morning before the race, as I was told by the owner of another horse which was running in that race. It has had two gallops recently, but jockey Chary,s record on favorites is dubious. Avoidable.

Rohini Star, Star Engagement, The Best Man and Queen Of Court appear to have an equal chance and one of them will definitely pull it off. I for one, am unable to pin point on any of these runners.

If Machine Gun stays the distance, (which sometimes proves very disastrous in Hyderabad) it should win from Ray Of Hope. Avoidable.

Vijay,s Conquer and Sweet Candy should fight it out and I feel Sweet Candy if ridden well should easily account for Vijays Conquer. I will make a bet on Sweet Candy for win.

Tejaswini looks cut above this class and should not find it difficult here. I will make a bet on Tejaswini for win.

Beau Ideal and Lovely Angel should fight it out, and, I feel that Beau Ideal appears to have an edge.

My bets for the day:

1. Go For Gold for win

2.Sweet Candy for win.

3. Tejaaswini for win

MUMBAI RACES 17.11.2013

Janis Jay should win from Belmont. My first bet for the day will be on Janis Jay for win

For Starry Eyes the race looks to be over bar the shouting. But, the odds I think will be so cramped that it would be futile to place a bet.

Port Blair looks a bit short of work. Off course if you try and search for work of Remember Me you would be surprised that there is absolutely no work compared to a solitary gallop of Port Blair. However, let me clarify that in its 11 month long career Remember Me has had 2 spurts in Jan 2013, one in Feb 2013 and Two spurts in  March 2013.It has had no track work during the entire Pune season where it has placed a good second thrice. Hence, I would go for a bet on Remember Me for win.

Alaindair and Silver Streak should fight it out, and Allaindair looks to have an edge. However, I for one would avoid taking a bet on either of them.

Isadoro,  with a change i.e., with Blinkers on might pull it off, as the opposition looks a bit weak. I am going  to have a bet on Isadoro for win.

Sheer Class looks to be in a different league altogether, Beforememoryfades should follow and I would go for a bet of Forecast pool in this race on Sheer Class-- Beforemamoryfades.

Shivalik Storm has the best bloodlines and is being ridden by the current champion of western India. However, betting might be a risk, avoidable.

Ghanghorr, Star Gazing and Bella Figura look to be the main contenders. Make your pick from amongst these three as the winner definitely will be one of these three.

My bets for the day:

1. Janis Jay for win

2. Remember Me for win.

3. Isadoro for win.

4. A forecast bet on Sheer Class- Beforememoryfades

BANGALORE RACES 15.11.2013

Spiritofchartwell is a bit above the rest and I feel should win here. I am going to place a bet on Spiritofchartwell for win.

Inspite of the stable first jockey B Sreekanth choosing Shrewd Master, I feel that Simply Clever will be a better horse. Black Areca who is also bred for speed and being ridden by the champion himself might go close. I will take an each way chance on Simply Clever.

A thumb rule race and better avoidable.

Igah Igah Igah, Volans, Mountain Splendour and See You Later look to be the main contenders here. I for one am unable to pinpoint any one runner. I might have gone for Volans but for the fact that when it  twice last season first in race number 27 on 26 may 2013 and then  in race number 107 on June 29 2013 it was running with BB (Basket Bit) and HB (Hanging Bit). Today both these equipments have been removed which has put a little question mark.

No wonder that Pacific Blue might end up as the first favorite as it has run second to Rock With You (who is running in the highest class now) wherein the trainer was suspended for six months and the jockey for an year for not permitting the horse to run on its merits. But I will be a little vary of Smokey Sid who I feel has the potential to win some more sprint races in its career. Anyway, the winner will emerge from these two only. Thats for sure.

Zermatt and Glycys Bay should fight it out for the honours.

Again a thumb rule race, wher, Cirque De Soleil, Chase the Sun and Zultanite look to be the front line contenders. However, an upset winner, as it so very happens in these races is also not ruled out.

Irish Song has incurred a penalty of 27 points for its last win which is very rare and quite a bit of penalty. Now, lets have a look into the career of One Time Magic(a full brother to Irish Song belonging to the same stable and group). One Time Magic won a race at a rating of 48 Aug 21 2012 and was penalised 25 points. In its next run it placed second at 73 and was further penalised 3 points. It won its next start at 76 and was further penalised 13 points. It placed a close second at 86 and was penalised 3 more points and lost by 1/2 a length to Panamera at a rating of 89. Hence, I feel that Irish Song should be able to handle this penalty. There are two negative points against Irish Song. First there is no track work available after the last race and there is a change of shoe from Aluminium to Steel. Well, I might ignore the shoe but am a little worried about the work part indicating fitness. Having said all this, I still feel that I should make a bet on Irish Song for win.

Here is a unique case of the horse being tried only in Aluminium shoes. Out of its 48 career starts, it has run only 9 times in Aluminium shoes which works out to less than 20%. And out of these 9 runs in Aluminium it has won 5 times (the last three wins in this same class) and came second thrice and only once was off the board, which works out 88%. Tommorow it runs again in Aluminium Shoes and is a fit case of an each way chance tomorrow.

My bets for the day:

1. Spiritofchartwell for win

2. Simply Clever for win and place

3. Irish Song for win

Trainer Vishal Yadav holds all the cards for this race as all of his youngsters look very forward. However, purely going on bloodlines, I feel that Dancing Tableux may pull it off.

A thumb rule race, however, as I said on 25.10.2013 Golden Time looks ready to strike and in its last start it has met Dominica which was too good for the bunch on that day. I am going to have an each way bet on Golden Time.

This thumb rule race is better avoidable.

Historica and Little Athena should fight for honors.

Gun Powder and Sivanta may fight it out.

Belle Etoile looks cut above this opposition and I am going yo have a bet on Belle Etoile for win.

For KETURAH the race looks to be over bar the shouting and here again I am going to make a bet on Keturah for win.

Quite an open and avoidable race.

Sand Dune, Arctic Rose and Carissa are the main contenders, and I feel that Sand Dume might pull it off. However, make your pick of these three only.

Winds of Victory and Natalia should fight it out and I feel Winds of Victory has an edge.

For Fastest Finger the race looks to be over bar the shouting, however the odds on it will be so low that it would not be worth taking a bet.

A thumb rule race, however with Suraj Narredu to guide its fortunes Amarpal may do the trick, however, it is not advisable as a betting proposition.

Silver Cruise's last run in a 1000m race ,which is not its forte, was very suggestive. Looks like it has come to hand.For the record, It has beaten Exclusive Lady( by 3.75 lengths in a 1600 m race last winter), the only other challenger in the race, carrying 1 Kg more, with N Rawal astride. Today with Suraj Nareedu in the saddle and carrying 2Kgs less I dont think it should find it difficult to land the spoils here. I am going to make a bet on Silver Cruise for win.

The manner in which Allianz Arena has won its last start (maiden win in its ninth start of its career) suggests that a minimum of one more win has to be there immediately. It is also related to Bespoke a sprinter of very high repute (having reached the highest class, with a rating of 115) from Western India, belonging to P. Shroff. I am going to have a bet on Allianz Arena for win.

Transition and Bernabeau should fight for honors and I feel that Transition has an edge.

Fair and Square and Amazing Weapon are the main contenders here. The edge, definitely shoild be given to Amazing Weapon for the fact  that it was a jobber for the first time in its career, in its last start, and was beaten by a horse ( Go for Gold) which has won very well agaain next time. Whereas, Fair and Square had to play the brudesmaid part on numerous occasions. Moreover, there is a huge positive change in the jockey from an apprentice in Mukesh Kumar to C. Henrique. Both these horses have had their last run on the same day in back to back races of the same distance that is 1100m. Both ran in the same fashion of a start to finish tactics. I have watched the video of both races a number of times but you cant take away anything from either of the runners. However, for the reasons nentioned earlier I will go with Amazing Weapon for win.

The sheer riding brilliance of Suraj Narredu may see Overshadow through, otherwise, none of the runners inspire any confidence as a betting prospective.

My bets for the day:

1. Silver Cruise for win

2. Allianz Arena for win

3. Amazing Weapon for win

Dear Friend looks to be the best of the lot and should not find it difficult to prevail. I am going to have a bet on Dear Friend for win.

A thumb rule race. However the race looks to be between Classic Wish and Blue Diamond. Make your pick from these two.

Apprise has hit a purple patch and is posed foe its fourth consecutive win. However, I feel it might not be easy as The Himalayas and Audacious will also fight for honours and I feel that the winner will emerge fron amongst these three.

Though Chayanandan has been entrusted to Suraj Narredu, Still, I feel that it may not be enough to beat Ice Rain. I am going to have a bet on Ice Rain for Win and SHP.

Here I feel that Suraj Narredu may guide Ziv for a win.

Always Bullish and Vijay's Best will fight for honours here.

Drayton has been very cleverly brought down in handicap by making it run in various distances which do not suit the horse. Moreover, the best jockey available to guide its fortunes I dont see it loosing. I am going to have a bet on Drayton for win.

My bets for the day:

1. Dear Friend for win

2.Ice Rain for win and SHP

3. Drayton for win

KOLKOTTA RACES 10.11.2013

As usual these days the day starts with a thumb rule race. However, Abrienda which  is well bred and making its debut might pull it off. Ijlal who is running within four days with a better jockey may also run well.

This thumb rule race certainly looks avoidable.

Carnival Point and Ademaro should fight it out and between the two my vote goes to Ademaro. and I think I wil have a bet on ademaro for win.

The race will be between War Games and Fire Angel.

Axstone was distinctly unlucky in that first it did not take a level jump and was slowly away and after that the saddle also shifted back. I feel that for Axstone the race is over bar the shouting and I am going to make a bet on Axstone for win.

Lantana Lady, Multimagic and Snowdrift are the main contenders here and the winner will emerge from amongst these three.

Arkoutros, River Blitz and Charlemagne look to be the best of the lot.

Stormy Wind and Amarilla will fight for honours. Make your pick from these two.

My bets for the day:

1. Ademaro for win

2. Axstone for win

BANGALORE RACES 09.11.2013

The day starts with a thumb rule race. However, I feel that Distinctive might pull it off and a small each way bet can be made.

Bold Majesty as per breeding is the best and is tracking well too. Shaft is also bred for speed. These two should fight it out.

Another thumb rule race, however, Estilita running only its second start and Standing Tall which has been entrusted to Suraj Narredu for the first time should fight it out.

Secret Punch and Cecil look to be the best of the lot. However, as it happens in the lowest class, it happens in the highest class too. A surprise winner may emerge too.

Whistle Jacket and Truman should fight it out and the running of the race and a little nit of luck may decide the winner.

Kafka, Placervilles Glory and Cool More are the main contenders here and the winner will emerge from these three.

Shinecock Hills and Arcric Attraction will fight it out.

Supreme, Bella Pinky and Beautiful are the main contenders.

I cannot pinpoint a single horse today which is clearly superior to the bunch and a bet could be made.

BANGALORE RACES 08.11.2013

The day starts of with a thumb rule race. Avoidable

Jackie Oh, Force Ensign and Regal Boast are the main contenders here. If not for jockey Appu, anyother better jockey I would be tempted to take a bet on Regal Boast.

Another thumb rule race, but here again Trainer Sharat has a runner which has come down in handicap to a very tidy mark and can win a race whenever the connections decide.

Evraz, who after its maiden win last start has been working extremely well and the kind of blood lines it possesses I feel it should not find it difficult to tackle this lot here and I am going to have a bet on Evraz for win.

Icelander and Real Steel should fight it out and the running of the race and a little bit of luck would decide the winner. However, I personally fell that Real Steel may come out trumps here.

Strombolite, Alfons De Borja and Whispering Gallery seem to be the main contenders here Strombolite has won 2of its 4 starts and came second twice. Alfons De Borja has won its maiden start well.Whispering Gallery out of its 5 starts till date was withdrawn thrice for different reasons and has run only twice and won both times by a distance. Off course it was disqualified the first time for the presence of a prohibited substance. But I personally was very much impressed by its manner of running and feel that it would carry the day. Hence I am going to have a bet on Whispering Gallery for win.

Hard To Pin Down, The Guardian and Jeraleine should fight for honours and I personally like The Guardian of these three.

Absolute Red, Stimulate and Ancient Title are the main contenders here. Make your pick from amongst these three.

My bets for the day:

Evraz for win

Whispering Gallery for win

The cumulative figure is a loss of Rs.200.00

The amount carried forward is Rs.14,800.00

KOLKOTTA RACES 06.11.2013

Again the day starts with a thumb rule race. However, if we just look at the record of all the four runners, Shaam Sunder has won only once at a rating of 8 and today runs at 23. Vaani has won twice at a rating of 9 and then at 6 and today runs at 22. Eros also has won twice at 18 and 24 and today runs at 20. Compared to these Beethoven has won 5 times first at a rating of 20 then at 24 next at 38 then at 41 and finally at 52 which was in August last year. Today it runs at a rating of 20. An avoidable race.

Another thumb rule race and to be avoided.

Xavier won its last race (beating Irish Connection sqarely at level weights, who on Derby day has won a 41-65 race very easily with I Khan in the saddle) in January this year a 40 - 65 race at a rating of 51 and was ridden by Imran Chisty. This horse has been cleverly brought down in scales and I feel with Imran Chisty in saddle should not find difficult to tackle this lot. My bet is on for win on Xavier.

Chhundu and Gorgeous Girl look to be the main contenders here and I personally feel that Gorgoeous Girl might win.

Dont be fooled by the poor mock race of Blue Lightning as I feel the main purpose of the mock was to make the horse get in and out of the gates as of the three runs in its career it was withdrawn twice at the gates. I feel the race is over bar the shouting for Blue Lightning and a win bet is on.

Iverness out of its seven starts till date has won thrice and placed second twice. It has had a very impressive mock race and has also been tracking well. Adabella also has 4 wins and 1 second from 8 starts. These two should fight it out. You can make your choice between these two. 

Good Looking and Bucharest both imports from western india look cut above the rest but the choice of jockeys on both the horses does not inspire any confidence.

My bets for the day 1. Xavier for win and 2. Blue Lightning for win 

ANALYSIS OF BANGALORE RACES 02.11.2013

The capital b/f for the day is rs.15,600.

The capital carried forwrad is Rs.15,600-600= Rs.15,000

WISHING YOU ALL A VERY HAPPY DIWALI

BANGALORE RACES 02.11.2013

These horses even after a year of running are still maidens, hence will be tricky to single out a horse and make a bet. However, I feel that Cullinan, Summer Gold and Flashy Ways might fight it out.

The dam of Cocktail Circuit has won 16 races abroad which is quite a remarkable feat. But Cocktail Circuit has only disappointed till now. However, I feel that today it might pull it off, still I think it is not a betting proposition.

Like the first race, here too are maidens competing. However, I feel that Vigorous on its sheer bloodlines should not loose and I will have a bet on it today.

Magnitude Star is one of the rare horses of Trainer Sharat Kumar which has come down in the scales. The race should be between Alcazaba and Magnitude Star.

Mannat looks too good for this bunch and should not find it difficult here. I am going to make a bet on Win for Mannat.

Royal Salute, Rumour Has It and Ace Mesmerise look to be the main contenders here and I personally feel that Ace Mesmerise should come out on top and I am going to place a bet for win.

Immense, Jersey Shore and Rock With You look to be the main contenders here. However, being a thumb rule race an upset winner also may emerge from the rest.

The winner should emerge out of The Muse, Summers Breeze, Jeyems Pride and Volt. Make your choice from these four.

Violent Storm and Wrekin may fight it out.

My bets for the day Vigorous, Mannat and Ace Mesmerise for win.
