Race 1:#2 Square Moon, who being a winner over the 12f trip earlier is taking on a lone youngster in Bold Appeal  who is a derby runner to his credit yet on staying prowess and also receiving weight should finish ahead of him Race 2:#4 Congressional, who ran a good race in the Indian 2000g last year in the same track over the same trip has never won at Mumbai and now finds itself in a small field with one horse to beat and as such should be in the thick of the things at the all important end,odds is a concern though Race 3:#7 Star Councillor, after a run benifit over a shorter trip this horse whose breeding sugegsts a liking for the now slightly extended trip appeals the most to clear maidens in what looks like a very open affair Race 4:#1 Solange ,who has run a fair fourth in the Indian 1000 Guineas has to give weight and beating to what looks like a moderate field with a decent gelding in Multiglory  making a comeback and Personify  who found galloping shoes in i...

HELLO FRIENDS,                               Bengaluru's racing on Friday was competitive and despite not having a single winner from the given choices was happy to see many close contests and cards like that with open completion will be the way to go,hope we get many cards like that in the future,today's card has 8 races slated and will start leisurely at 4pm and close at 8pm with a Triple Million being the feature of the day,here are my choices with comments hope they are useful. Race 1:#1 Shivalik Story ,who won over the same trip in the same class last time out is placed well again and should take advantage of that and put up a good show. Race 2:#6 Snowing, who has been running some good races had earlier led the field into the straight in the Gr.I Indian Oaks during her classic year and such has some class and is working well now and may run a good race here in what is otherwise an open contest with staying ...

Hello friends,                       The friday card for Bangalore consists of 9 races with The Karnataka Police Cup as the feature of the day,here are my selections with comments. Race 1:#2 Colorato, who has been subject to change in ownership and also stable is prepared well and may run a good race here with a P.S.Chouhan on board,it has run a forward race when the now classic winner Brilliant Cut cleared his maidens at Mysore and on that note stands a decent chance if odds are not too low Race 2:#7 Common Wealth, appeals here due to three reasons,now being a got-abroad may be this horse could be precocious,second is that its trial performances are encouraging with the same jockey who is slated to ride her and the third is the jockey himself who is declared to ride here may be overweight but then despite of that fact the trainer opting for his first jockey means the intent is positive and as such is my personal fan...

Hello Friends,                          A card of 8 races has been framed for the mid-week racing at Mumbai,here are my selections with comments. Race 1:#3 Blackbean, who had won in class V open over the same trip at Pune in the same class has since been running in class IV since then and now dropping down in grade and over the 1000m trip should run a fair race and is a decent chance Race 2:#3 Savage Beauty, who has won twice over the 2400 trip at pune has been putting in some decent yet not so good performances over 1800 and 2000m in the same class,now with a change to the winning jockey and a step up in distance to 2400 is a decent chance and is my personal fancy. Race 3:#3 Alishas Pet, who had quite a forgettable comeback at Pune is working well in the trial tracks and has seen better company before and as such is decent chance here especially with Sandesh on board  Race 4:#7 Miss Arazan, who on ...

Hello Friends,                         Evening racing has to wait one more week and thus the first sunday of 2016 has a rather "compact" card with 7 races,The  bookmakers association Million will be the feature of the day but then the contest between Derby hopeful Costa Del Sol and Pune derby winner Bullrun will be the the cynosure of the day.Here is analysis followed by personal fancies for the day Race 1:A class IV race over 1200m (5yo+) (DIV-2) The Magician ran a good race against youngsters in its last start and Fast Future's penultimate run is a good pointer too thus making them both possible contenders in this race Queen of Venus has the pull in weights and the presence of ace jockey,a dangerous combo A look at the trial tracks suggests that Shivalik Breeze is capable of a good show,was a decent performer earlier on in its career and now with a run benefit this season and a claimer to lessen the burden see...

Hi Friends,                     A card of 9 races are slated for the day,The Bangalore Oaks the 3rd classic and in that is an  interesting one at that will be feature of the day,here are my selections with comments and hope they are useful...... Race 1:#1 Admiral Messi, is now lucky to be running in this div-2 race and when luck favours someone like this they should grab it with both hands,has a good jockey and being a same distance winner before has a decent chance in the opener Race 2:#3 Mariko, in this NO WHIP race has all but to make sure that the apprentice boy guides her properly,the horse is well placed and should run a good one depending on whether the boy keeps his cool,decent chance. Race 3:#4 Thomas More, is from sire who is promising and a dam who is a black type winner and a class II winner amongst her progenies in Renee  makes him my fancy here,if he wins here well and good and if not one for the notebook ...
