Hyderabad 18th Jan

Hi all,

Following are my views for Monday races.

Race1:Young Soldier(7)-Win

Youngsters races are always tricky.Sterling Cruise is blazing tracks but one cannot completely rely on that,many factors affect performance of horse.One should always prefer horses which have run couple of times.Young Star lost in blanket finish in its last run and in last but one run was badly interfered by winner in last 50mts,should run a bold race and return as winner.Sorbitrate has impressed in mock race held on Jan4,is now aided with extra gears Rubber Bit,will place for sure.Askioz can sneak in place for longer odds.


Race2:World Wide(7)-Win

Horses which have good initial speed will have upper hand in this 5 furlong race.World Wide runs like a wild cat and leaves the field in cold,good work outs are indication that it may run away to victory in this set.Ted Lapidus is the another one which has good initial speed and will place ahead of Dancing Harbour.


Race3:Lambourn(9)-Win

Lambourn has improved after couple of runs,will be in contention.Aspire ran good in its last run,can place again.Flashy Conquest has improved gate manners and running pattern,can surprise them all,good long shot place prospect.


Race4:Copertina(7)-Win

Copertina is better placed in scales when compared to Kings cruise,Arabian Dancer and Chespeake and can beat them all.Kings Cruise will extend its best but has tough job on hand.


Race5:Sparkling Sapphire(7)-E/W

Inspite of finishing off board in its last three runs,Sparkling Sapphire's rating has not been reduced clearly indicating the fact that handicapper rates him higher,now entrusted to its fav rider and can exploit the inexperince of aprentices astride on other hopeful horses.Cygnet is entrusted to its fav rider,shown in track and can upset,good place bet.


Race6:India Gate(7)-Win

Ignore last run of India Gate due to distance unsuitability,has good chance to win in this set.Belle Dancer and Glorious Bay will bein contention for prime honours.


Race7:Crocodile Hunter(2)-Win

Crocodile Hunter should win this race if it has not suffered any setback.Global Presence may place ahead of Come Together.Zycon does not impress in this set.


Race8:Alberton Star(3)-Win

Ignore last run of Alberton Star where it was hanging in,can win this race.Acciaccatura has reached its peak,now will run easy.Tristar won well last time,but the horses from this stable never run according to form book,if on job they run very well or else simply languish in back either due to slow start or trying to come thru rails.

Race9:Acquisition(9)-Win

Acquisition looks vastly improved and with strong saddle assistence has good chance to win this race.Krithiman can hold on to runner up berth ahead of Miracle.
