Sunday, December 30, 2012

  
Everyday is not Sunday

I want to thank all you guys who have generously complimented me on getting 7 winners out of 8..Well Kohinoor Thunder stole the show or else it would have been a straight 8..BTW Kohinoor Thunder returned bleeding.

I take this opportunity to tell that iam lucky to have such generous,understanding and intelligent readers.Just last week this blog was struggling to find even one decent winner but still i was not ridiculed or insulted.Thank you guys!!!!


Not an ideal race card which has two lowest class race,2 races for oldies

Race1:Oasis Vision(4)-Win

Terms race for 3 yrs old and up.Only oasis Vision and Odalis are 3yrs old rest all above 5yrs

Oasis Vision was seen devouring ground rapidly in its last run where it failed to beat Indian Epic by whisker,has good chance to win.

Da Xia is winner of same age group,will run easy.

The Leader has won well but now facing relatively tougher opposition.

Odalis is best suited for 1200mts,will do all the running before petering out.

Rosemead gets top rider but its last win was in same age group,has lost form completely.

Ruffiano is tracking very well and running consistently this season,even though long in tooth can end up in 1-2

Race2:Cypress Way(2)/Valley Crossing(3)

Cherry Hill is non winner,gets top rider this time,looks very difficult to me.

Cypress Way is now running without TS but not in tracks for last 35 days,has won a race in this class in last winter season,Monsoon campaign was to reduce handicap.

Valley crossing is non winner  ridden by a rider who is yet to get a winner this season even after 27 rides,in last winter finished good second over 1100mts,can upset.

Victory sky is running in this class for the first time and trainer has opted for +ve switch of rider and shoes,earlier was under Deshmukh,won a race over 1800mts as hot fav but 2 yrs back,no idea abt its present state..

Sugar Deal is non winner for 58 runs,ignore
Bold Brigade has lost form completely,non winner for 2.5 yrs,failed in this lowest class also

Race3:Caladuim(1)/Maid For Love(8)

Caladium is running in this class for first time,now runs with +ve switch of shoes,tracking very impressively,can win.

Max Baby may need more ground.
Maid for love is non winner,now gets good rider.
Hard Hit is nonwinner,failed as fav in same class,can be ignored.

Race4:Smrithiman(4)/Ice Mountain(2)

Kansas City Mac is best for 1400mts,will not be able to carry this weight inspite of top saddle artist astride.

Ice Mountain is on downslide ever since it won a race in class 2 almost 2 yrs back,has reduced handicap significantly,runs with +ve switch of shoes and rider with good preparation,will be on job.

Smrithiman is running in most apt distance and will be the one to be beaten here.

Eloquence is running with +ve switch of shoes but i do get a feeling that it is looking for class down,will run easy here.

Race5:Chemeli(6)/Over Taker(7)

Yet another race for oldies.

Rich And Famous may be fancied in this lower class,earlier failed as fav in same class,will not be able to sustain this distance.

Krithiman in hands of ace jockey lost in ordinary company,now runs with +ve switch of shoes,winner of class 2,this horse is on downslide,no signs of any good form

 Palace Affairs and Striking Gold will not be able to sustain this distance.

Chemeli has come down in handicap rapidly,failed as fav with same rider astride due to slow start,but now at this handicap should not be ignored.

Over Taker has been lightly penalised,can repeat

Race6:Golden Palace(1)/Front Line(8)

Golden Palace's second to Vijays Dhara beating finishing ahead of Kohinoor Wish and  Surya Lakshmi,has very good chance to win this race.

Melody Queen at this handicap does not impress.

Vijaykeerthi needs more groumd,agreed it won in 1400mts but tht was in class 2 not in this class

Frontline has come down in ratings by 3.5kgs,never ran in this class,if not looking for class down then can upset.

Hero's Choice won well last time but one cannot ignore the fact that it is unreliable type,lethargic slow starter in some races,surprisingly in mockrace has not done well

Jabel Queen is non winner for 17months,has changed stables from S A Abbas to M Srinivas Reddy,has top rider who can extract best from it

Race7:Coral Spring(7)/Greek Fire(3)

Race for youngsters.Five of them are winners.

It is obivous that winners will be preferrred.

But iam more inclined to select Coral Springs because it has not been duly extended to full potential,both runs were forward and last run was very very good,can beat this winners.

Greek Fire was impressive winner.

Race8:VijaysChamp(3)

Vijays Champ is blazing tracks,is winning as it likes,can repeat

Flying Spur and Aerosmith for minor placings

Hyderabad 30th December-->Selections and comments

Saturday, December 29, 2012

Card looks good.


Race1:Emerald Reef(6)-Win

Emerald Reef was slowly off in its last run yet finished notable second,run in a mockrace thereafter and is impressive in final fast trackwork,has good chance.

Robust was fav in last run,slowly off and finished 30lengths behind,gave gate good gate practises with Blks on,will be fancied again,at best may place.

Ace Star is consistent,last race was in wrong distance,can place here.

Devils Advocate won well but the company was very weak,may run easy this time.

The Challenge is non winner,has failed as odds on fav earlier,not consistent.

All The Fun is non winner,has failed to live upto the expectations after showing signs of some form in monsoon.

Jaz Elle is looking for class down,ignore here.

Race2:Magic Spell(4)-Win

Race for youngsters.No pointer except for trackwork.Magic Spell looks best on track and can come good.Kohinoor Thunder is being urged in tracks for response.Globetrettor has been prepared in typical L D Silva style,will run good and can be in top 2.

Race3:Rainbow In The Sky(7)-Win

Race for youngsters.

Rainbow In The Sky  was slowly off in its last run yet managed to finish second ahead of fancied runners,impressive in trackwork thereafter and can upset.

Choclate Soldier in last run faced tough opponent in form of Kallu Mama,hence ran unextended,earlier on debut good second,working well thereafter and has chance.

Shimmering Ice is impressive in tracks,can surprise.

Grace Land looks to be of nice type,working well.

Race4:Moments Of Roses(2)/Silver Lid(6)

Bad race.

Silver Lid did well in mockrace indicating return of its form,can do well.

Star Striker's second behind Specialist in Monsoon is noteworthy but looks like it is unable to carry this weight,

Deccan Storm won in same age group,may run easy now.

Moments of Roses is non winner,running in this distance for first time,this rider has won on many such maiden horses in last 2 weeks,can come good here.

Sheiks Emperor's rider was reprimanded by stewards for not put determined efforts,has to carry top weight,looks difficult to me.

Midnight Beauty was winner in lower class over distance of 1200mts,no chance here.


Race5:Kohinoor Victory(3)/All Pepper(4)

Competitive race with as many as 6 contenders.

Drayton now runs in lower class in oldies group,has to carry top weight,just two entries from stable,looks like they will go easy on this.

Suchiman has failed to deliver even in modest company,Top rider astride and running in right distance but weights will be a stopper.

Kohinoor Victory has been consistent,is at tidy handicap and has good chance to upset.

All pepper won well last time,lightly penalised,working very well,will run close to eventual winner.

Star Prospect now runs with +ve change of shoes,as as youngster showed lot of zeal even winning  a race in this class,is on downside for last two years,picked up a race in lower class but in this class and in this set looks very difficult to me.

Young Sapper gets top rider,has rapidly come down in scales infact lower than its winning mark,previous runs suggest it is lethargic and needs lot of pushing and urging to extract the best,i would avoid win bet on this.

Race6:Blazing Asian(1)/Strategic Command(4)

Blazing Asian in last run was badly interfered in last run,was in wrong distance,after than run has been prepared very well including a impressive mockrace,can win.

Arabian Dancer in this class can be ignored.

Kings Cruise will run easy this time as a win here will push to cat1 and at this age coming back to this class may not be possible.

Strategic Command will be on job as i expect stables of M Srinivas Reddy to be active on Sunday.

Aneres in this higher class will not be able to do much.

Race 7:Windsor Manor(1)-Win

Kuchipudi [R110] is highest rated in this terms race,can be ignored as it has never won in a terms race,all in handicap races only,non winner for 1 year and not in tracks.

Indian Epic [R108] is second highest rated ,is facing lot tough set here,looks very difficult.

Windsor Manor [R99] last run can be ignored,will make amends this race and has good chance to win.

Surya Lakshmi with change of equipments won well last time,will not be able to settle well in this fast pace race.

Race8:Transition(8)-Days Best

Transition is knocking door,has come down in handicap significantly,has very good chance to win this race.

Rebut will not be able to carry this weight.

Inner Strength lost to better horse but one cannot ignore the fact that it was getting weakened in last 50mts on No False rails day,on this day of False rails its chances get diminished further.

Rocking Racer is blessed with speed but outer box will mar its chances.

Camacho speed is non winner,can be ignored here.

Bangalore 29th December-->Selections

Friday, December 28, 2012




Card looks tricky.Many entries from stables of Sharat Kumar,most of them with no trackwork or -ve shoes.One cannot deny the fact that this is the most confusing and unreliable stables.Watch out for betting trends, my view is that if they are in range of 4-7,they will be fully tried.No point in betting on odds on fav from this stables,if so can be ignored and other value bets can be looked for.

_________________________________________________________________________________
Race1:

[3] Rise To Glory: Now runs with +ve change of shoes and rider,working very well,should win.

[2] Steel King: Has come down in ratings rapidly,now runs with +ve change of shoes,earlier in last summer won handsomely when ridden in A shoes,will be on job,place is certain.

[4] Bourbon Rock:Now entrusted to better rider,has benifit of mockrace and runs without blks,can upset.

Other horses
[1]Weak Rider [5] Absence in tracks [6] Jky non winner this season [7] Distance sharp,lower class winner [8] No form [9] Needs more ground
