Mumbai 2nd May

Hi all,

Following are my observations for Saturdays races.

Race1:(5)Statjford/(8)King Of The Ring-Jodi

Race for horses which have run during the current Mumbai Meeting and not won

Statjford:Knocking on door this season,now running with "blks"has best chance to register a win in non winners set.
King Of The Ring:Good runs this season where it was seen finishing on well,here in this poor bunch can expect to win.
Nonios:Was ridden badly last time,appeared in mock race after that run,will extend its best here,good place bet.
Rags To Riches:Poor performance this season till date but looks to be prepared well,can upset.
Morality:Endowed with good initial speed,may place in this shorter distance.
Wind Storm:Non winner till date,not seen in track and Pool for last 45 days,ignore.
Aiming High:Poor performance so far,ignore
Last Nights Sonnet:Unable to sustain itself over this distance,but in this very poor set can kick till end,may place.
Bold Act:Always ran in longer odds,no chance.



Race2:Real Dream/Sunburst-Jodi

Race for horses which have run during the current Mumbai Meeting and not won

Real Dream:Ignore last run in superior company,has been showing forward forms in earlier runs and should run a good race.
Sunburst:Last run was suggestive,will not go down without fight.
Highland Vision:Failed inspite of champion jockey astride,can hope to finally earn a winning berth in this set of non winners.
Royal Hunter:Met interference in both starts,is in forward condition,can upset
Black Partridge,The First Lady:Running frequently, not race fit.
Alohamora:Non impressive performance so far,nothing meritous to consider its chances.
Cloud Cover:Forward runs in higher class,gave one impressive track work on 14th april with "blks",seen in pool regularly but only thing which creates doubt is total absence of any preparation work for last 15 days.
Molto Bella:Cannot improve as it will be attracting penalty under Calender notification regarding improved performance within short span of time.




Race3:River Star-win Mohabbi-Shp/Place
Race for horses which have run and not placed 2nd or 3rd.

River Star:Both runs were in superior company,working impressively wth "blks" and sporting the same for race,will run a bold race.
Mohabbi:Impressive last run where it was travelling well all thru,will definetely be in 1-2.
Numismatist:Ignore last run where it was bumped at start and badly interfered near last 400mts,can improve on that run.
Creme De La Creme:Is in forward condition,may place.

Race4:Buster(1)-Win

Buster:One of the few horses which win in 40-66 class immediately after clearing maidens,is working very very well,can carry this weight over this distance.
Rising Hero:Trainer is firing all cylinders at fag end of season,this horse has won a race over identical distance,but here it has to beat Buster.
Rage Of Angels:Showed some form in midst of season,last run was dampener,not prepared.

Race5:Amberogio-Eachway

Amberogio:Last run suggested that it regained its old form,no risk of breaching of Calender notification regarding Improved performance of a horse within short span of time,can be backed confidently
Successor:Ignore last run as it was running after almost 2 months,is working well with "blks" and sporting the same for race,will run a bold race.
Ekhabinskya:Is in great form this season,cannot be ignored.
Chimerique:Running after long lay off and in wrong distance,most probably this run will be a exercise run before heading towards Bangalore.

Wild Temper:Running in wrong distance,ignore.
Elementto Angel:Winner of same group in lower class,has no chance here.



Race6:Snowden(7)-win

Snowden:Won impressively beating superior Slickkit,should run a good race and may return as winner even in this higher category.
Rubidium:Last run can be ignored as i feel that it was not ridden properly,with better saddle assistence this time can finally earn a win for his luckless trainer.
Daffodils:Ignore its last two runs where it ws drawn disadvantegously in outer box,if jky rides a judicous ride,can place.
Here Comes The Don,Major Wager:Failed to beat half of the field of same class even once in its last 3 outings,ignore.
