Pune 30/08/14 Analysis and choices

Race 1:Class V race over a mile 

Three youngsters take on four older horses in this bottom class mile affair 

Its High Time and Porto Banus are two older horses that appeal here

But then am looking at an youngster to win this race,Bethpage will be the more fancied of the trio,on pure merit and run benifit is the horse to be beaten here 

Then there are two other horses in Adams Wing and On The Quest,the latter has run with relatively superior company and with the benifit of a mock race and a change in rider to an apprentice is my choice here 

My Choice:#2 On The Quest Win 

Race 2:A race for 3 yo maidens over 1000 mts 

The terms are such that the horses who have run and not finished second or third,are eligible to run in this race 

True to the fact,the horses who have turned up here are mediocre to tell the least 

On pure preperation and based on relative form,Born To Win is the horse that everyone has to beat here,is showing out on the tracks and is the top contender here 

Flynn and Ulrika are two other horses that comes into my contention 

However,please have a look at Remarkables,who had a forward run over the 6f trip and is now running over the 5f with a change in saddle support and two easy tracks,my personal fancy in this race 

My Choice:#5 Remarkables for win 

Race 3:Class IV race over 2400 mts 

Grenadine,the filly who won ove 1800 mts,in the same class now steps up by 600 mts in trip and will be the most favoured horse in this race,especially when she is being ridden by ace jockey 

Despite being wonderful on paper,I feel this race is more open than it really seems...... 

Fleetwood Mac,Pumba,Open Offer or even Savage Garden (the proverbial dark horse) have a chance to win here 

But Dixie Delight appeals a lot in this race,its las run over 2000 mts was eye-catching and with that alone,this horse can travel the extra 400 mts and has a very good chance of bagging this race ! My personal fancy 

My Choice:#2 Dixie Delight for win 

Race 4:Class v race over 1000 mts

Yash Narredu on Sir Song,will be the horse they all have to beat in this race,the another youngster in Spear of Trium is the main challenger in this race,Stormy Day and Dark Williams are other horses that come into serious contention in this race 

However,there is a horse called Good Memory,in the fray! Will be ridden by T.S.Jodha,have been showing some good speed in the trails and is the Darkhorse in this set

My Choice:#8 Good Memory win 

Race 5:A class IV race over 1200 mts 

Soothsayer,the winner in the last outing with the same jockey on board is certainly the horse to be beaten in this race ! 

In time who ran a good fourth last time out,now gets services of a claimer and as such with that run benifit and handy track spurts is the main challenger 

Two other horses that may interest some attention in this race are Pretty Hot and Jewel

Jewel's last run is best ignored,has been prepared well and now with ace jockey on board is the horse that can improve and may well win this race,my personal fancy 

My Choice:#5 Jewel for win 

Race 6:For class IV horses over 1200 mts 

Quizical and Cha Cha Cha should dominate the proceedings in this race 

Last start winner Dior,Abredus and Wiki Wiki are the others who can make this race interesting 

I usually done opt for a filly who is going to carry weight over 1200 mts,however Quizical seems like the one that can do it,last win was easy and now over this race is my personal fancy 

My Choice:#1 Quizical win 

Race 7:A terms race over 1200 mts 

Dancing Prances has two brilliant runs this season,now while running over 1200 mts,is the top contender for this race 

Dancing Phoenix is known to be a speedy customer too,cannot be ignored in this race 

Rosie Sunshine after much promise early on has not been able to strike it on the big stage,the outsider if any here 

My fancy is Mariinsky,the winner of the Indian 1000 guineas and the S.C.Jain sprinters at Mumabi failed to justify the top billing at Hyderabad,now with preparations which seem good and Trevor the regular jockey doing duty,is my personal fancy for this race 

My Choice:#1 Mariinsky for Win 

Race 8:A race for maidens over 1400 mts 

LORD JIM HAS BEEN PREPARED WELL AND BARRING ANY ACCIDENT SHOULD ROMP HOME,AT THESE ODDS THE BEST OPTION IS TO WATCH THIS RACE! 

Race 9:A race for 3 yo maidens over 1400 mts 

This seems to be one of the most open of all races in the card,Pesi Shroff's horse Constantine is the one they all have to beat,with a run benifit and a got-abroad should run a good race 

However this race has many credible challengers in Paurus,Pure Bliss,Replica and Ukelele

Paurus and Ukelele will be in contention as they have some relatable form! However the two other mentioned horses are no mere pushovers,the debutant in Replica is my personal fancy,this filly is bred well and is running over the right distance on debut,thus has a chance to run a bold race on debut ! An eachway chance 

My Choice:#7 Replica win/place 

Race 10:A race for horses in class III over a mile 

16 runners,with some very good horses in the fray,makes this race an interesting one to solve. 

Rule Downunder is the horse they all have to beat in this race,carried top weight and moved pretty well to corner the front runner in its last start with authority !!! 

The other youngsters in the fray include,Speed King,Strawberry Crush,Westaphalia are all there in the contention 

The Bangalore summer seasons last start for Speed King is one to be noted,as this horse has finished behind the subsequent classic winner Godspeed in a million race

Of the older lot,although Haunting Moments seem good on paper,The Big Bull and Hawker appeal more on their class factor than anything else..... 

It is touch and go between the youngsters and the older horses on my paperwork,I was pretty much inpressed with Rule Downunder's last victory,although penalised heavily I expect this horse to win here and is my personal fancy for this race. 

My Choice:#4 Rule Downunder for Win 

Note:Investment plan will be posted before 11 am
