Hyderabad 21/12

Hi all,

First race day post vaccination.Hope nothing much has changed.Feature event of the day should witness a match race between Orochi and Maximise.Orochi won impressively carrying crushing weight,earlier in Monsoon always ran in Grade races beating superior horses like Arabianknight,Diabolical.Maximise won effortlessly in monsoon over 2400mts,well rested ,working well,has good initial speed but has to beat Orochi.In youngsters race Queensfortune looks very good, should win easily and is my days best bet.Zorbanaut is certain to place.Among professionals Prasadraju and Sateesh are expected to be in lime light.Following are my views for other races.

Race1:Belledancer(4)-win
Belledancer:Has good initial speed,drawn advantegously in innermost box,working well,will be hardnut to be cracked.
Pampering:In its last run it was leading till last 100mts over a distance of 1100mts,is working well and in this shorter will lead till beaten by Belledancer.
Sparklingsaphire:Halfsister to Standing ovation,working regularly can place at longer odds.

Race2:Queensfortune(8)-win
Queensfortune:If it can reproduce even half of what it displayed in its last run,should win easily.+ve change of shoes and jockey r added advantage.

Orochi:Won impressively carrying crushing weight,always ran in graded races in monsoon beating quality opposition,looks very good at this weight.
