Sunday Pune Races 31/8/14 Analysis and selections
Race 1:A race for class V horses over 1200 mts
Technically,a maiden handicap race for 4 yo only ! This is now one must approach this race,on that count the top weighted Cut Diamomd comes right into contention as the top contender in this race,with able jockey support and running with two equipment changes,this horse is certainly the one to be beaten
Zaagros has finished a good fourth to Dior on its seasonal debut,now going over this same distance,is certainly the main challenger for the former
Annabeth is the horse that can expect to do well here,ran well on its seasonal debut and this trip should suit its running style
This is a very open race,my personal fancy among the three is Annabeth,purely because it has a run benifit and a slight edge in the scales. It has a fair chance to win here
My Choice:#5 Annabeth win
Race 2:Class IV race over 1000 mts
Sunshine Heart and herzeliyah are two winners coming into this race,the former won over the same track in its last start and is the horse in form,they all have to beat in this race
Highway Express has all chances to be termed as the main challenger in this race,has a fair chance to win here
However my view of the race is that either Passion Prince or Zoe has the best chance of pulling it off in this race ! With Windsor Queen being the one that can play the part of party spoiler in this race
Zoe has been running some good races,last run failed to collar Titeleist may be given another chance and Passion Prince who is searching for his elusive first victory may just have it here,its touch and go between the two
My choice is Zoe,simply because it has run a good race last start and if it puts up another show on that likes should easily win here
My Choice:#10 Zoe win
Race 3:For maiden 3 yo only over 1200 mts
Pepito and Golden Lilly are the two horses that can be termed as the prime contenders in this race,the former is well experienced and the latter gets a switch in saddle support with a benifit of a run
Ocean Dream is bred well,last run was nothing to write about,the trainer has given only one solitary track after the last run yet on breeding alone merits serious consideration
However,Simply Sweet after a decent debut over 5f has run in two races with superior company,and is now making its seasonal debut amidst some good preparation is certainly the horse my money would ride on this race
My Choice:# 7 Simply Seeet Win
Race 4:A terms race for 3 yo only over 1800 mts
This prep race for the Pune Derby has attracted 3 entries,may the best horse win !
Race 5:A class II race over 1400 mts
One of the most interesting races of tomorrow's card!
Caruso who has a run advantage with an apprentice,switching over to Zervan who has atlast posted a win this season,is the top contender for this race
With Adam in the fray (two wins out of two starts) running his third race in class II,have no idea how many have come this far and won in class II in their third run! Thus there is a presence of lucrative odds for this horse
Remember Me is known to enjoy this trip,has a feel of a track over Mykonos's 1000 mts and is definitely one of the prime contenders
Then there is Honest Pleasure,who ran behind Papakura,showing out in the straight by covering good ground,another strong contender here !
My personal choice for this race is more out of believing in a certain horse's ability rather than going by the unwritten rules of racing,I guess the horse Adam has loads of ability and should be the horse to be beaten in this race !
My Choice:#9 Adam for win
Race 6:Class III race over 1200 mts
ZEDA who won its last outing over a five furlong trip goes out with the same jockey over this extended trip and is the horse to be beaten in this race
Mine Forever is skipping class IV and is running in class III after clearing its maiden ranks,is its main challenger
Desert Wings gets a change in saddle support,although the distance may be sharp,had run behind very good horses in its last two outings and cannot be ignored in this set
Then there is Supreme Minsterel and Neptune's ocean who can make this race interesting
Keep an eye on Divine Solitaire,had a decent Mumbai season,had a run on the local track,not seen in workouts after that run yet has all credentials to cause an upset here
My Choice:#2 Desert Wings for win
Race 7:Terms Race over 1800 mts
Circle of Bliss and Starry Eyes are the two horses that can be expected to run a game race
Scarlet O Hara is from Bangalore,had once ran behind the wonder filly Amazing Grace,being a last start winner and seemingly fit cannot be ignored
Same goes for Victoria Falls,just cannot be ignored due to its form,taking on quality opposition for the first time
Starry Eyes after its last run behind Dancing Prances is going out with ace jockey this time out,has only COB to beat on paper,has shown a lot of class before and here comes an opportunity for it and I believe this horse has the best chance to win this race
My Choice:#1 Starry Eyes win
Race 8:Class IV race over 1400 mts
Durer who ran a scintillating debut at Mumbai will go out as the top contender for this race
Stiletto who was caught by the superior Rule Down Under in the Pune straight is the main challenger here
Mambo Magic has run some game races and is poised to make its presence felt strongly here,the dark horse
Dyna who has run well after a longish gap as a favourite,is logically the best horse in the field,tracking well and with the same jockey aboard is my personal fancy for this race
My Choice:#2 Dyna win
Race 9:For maiden 3 yo over 1200 mts
Apache hasn't run to expectations on its last start,may improve
Blend of Elegance and Troppa Bella are coming out of the same race,the latter seems to have a definite edge in this race
But the race should be confined to Sweet as Honey and Egyptiana,the latter is tracking well and has a fair chance to win here and is my personal fancy
My Choice:#7 Egyptiana Win
Race 10:class IV race over 1000 mts (5yo+)
Polar Zone is the horse they all have to beat here in this race
New Star,Starsonboard and Ancient World are the other contenders here
Last start winner Starsomboard seems like the one that can extend its winning form again due to many factors which include a run benifit this season and going over a trip she likes the most,my personal fancy
My Choice:#1 Starsonboard win
