Mumbai 29th March

Hi all,

Following are my views

Race1:Belligerent/Beaconlight

Belligerent:Working regularly in tracks and pool,In last race finished ahead of Firevault,doubledelight which went to win,earlier in Pune ran close to Brad,and in last mumbai season was seen finishing on well to good horses like Rosebowl and setalight,gave 2 good gatepractises and now running with "Blks',can pull it off.
Beaconlight:Was seen gaining places in final furlong,entrusted to allowance claiming jockey,can extend its best here.
Rattle:Finished ahead of Belligerent in last race,but habitual slow starter,hence avoided.
Solar:Was moving lethargically thru out in its last run,can be ignored for win.
Anemio:Finished 25lenghts behind in its sole run,no track work after that,cannot win.


Race2:Anastasia/Empressofindia

Anastasia:Was bit slow in start,was last till bend,came with burst of speed,but was running green in its last run where stable prefered other horse,now entrusted to Mcgullah who had the feel of the horse in lone track work,gets the first preference in this set.
Empressofindia:In its last run was handy close 7th till bend,could not accelerate in straight,thereafter systematically prepared,can upset.
Moonflower:Bumped at start in last run,was seen moving well in final stages,working regularly,will not go without fight.
Riverglory:Only track work after last run,last run was prominent till bend,then fizzled out,cannot be trusted for win.
Notability:Was up with front bunch till last 400mts,could not accelerate,has no chance here.

Race3:Premier perception

Premier perception on basis of its impressive second to Monopoly stands out clearly in this junk race where Rococo,Forcado,Strathendrick are running for first time and The Rising,Nativestrategy,Wafadar,Red Dawn are not seen in tracks for long time.Starowar has services of good jockey but distance is sharp,so by default Premier perception has best chances to win in its pet distance.

Race4:Arts

Arts has threat only in form of Cinquecento but one can safely assume that Banja would not go against Mama.Captainsmart in place looks good option for place.

Race5:Catalyst/Chios

Catalyst:Never travelled this distance,working well can pull it off in this set.
Chios:Heavily penalised,working very well with good horses,should be in 1-2

Race6:Te Quiero/Ganador

Bad race. Te Quiero and Ganador have some chance as they are running in pet distance and seen in pool.

Race7:Snowden

Snowden should not have much difficulty in winning this race.Grandwarrior is running after long lay off of nearly 1 year.Goldenkingdom and Sirtaj will need this run.

Race8:Icebreaker/Attractress

Icebreaker:Best filly of the country after Setalight,should not have much difficulty in winning the race,only thing she has to take care is that she does not get weakened in long straight of mumbai.
Attractress:Wonderfilly from Malakpet,had a feel of Mumbai track in Guineas2000,working very well with "Blks" and sporting the same for race,distance is not a issue,should run a good race.
Phenomenale:Last run was too bad to be true,vanquisher of Dancingdynamite in Pune derby,this filly has good chance to enhance her reputation.
Barbara:Winner of lower class,never travelled beyond mile,can be ignored.
Congrats:Its previous runs suggest it may not be able to sustain itself after 2000mts.
Nora,originality,Riyasat,Veerawang:Never travelled over mile,can be ignored.
Corfu:This Kolkotta horse may not be able to make any impression here.

Race9:Daffodils/Rubidium

Daffodils:After clearing maidens last Mumbai season,ran forward races to too good horses like Redromeo,Autonomy,ran unextended races in higher category in Pune,ignore last run in this season where it could not get clear passage in final furlong,if fit can make a race out of it.
Rubidium:Vanquisher of Bluejay in Pune,Finished good second to superior Moonstorm{2nd win}in higher class,has good chance.
Sophie:Eventhough running for first time in this season,its lone Gatepractise was impressive,can upset.
Easter Lily:Still a maiden,failed to carry topweight in lower class,will try to run away at this weight.
Highland Bounty:Needs stronger saddle assistence,ignore for win.
Blue Jay:Needs stronger saddle assistence,cannot be backed for win.


Race10:Maseeha

Maseeha has an edge over Silvertern and Nitrous{may not be able to sustain this distance}.

Daysbest:Anastasia(2-3)
