Hyderabad:Opening days pointers

Not an ideal start of the season.121 runners have accepted to run on first day of season out of which most of them are running in wrong distances or with negative change of shoes under weak rider.Usually trainer K V Srinivas Rao shines on first day with Prasad Raju also pitching in with some upsets and surprises.As expected Deshmukh will remain in limelight thru out season.


Race1:Brahmani(7)-Win [WD]  Attenbough(5)-Place 4TH]


Elegant Approach may be strongly fancied due to Bangalore sojourn and subsequent impressive trackwork but it has tendency of getting weak in final furlong and top weight will only add to its misery.


Brahmani won very very impressively in winter clocking very handsome finishing time,thereafter ran listless in strong company,looks very fit and should not have much difficulty in winning.

Attenbough can sneak in place at longer odds

Race2:Racing Tycoon(7)-Win  [LOST] Supercool(8)-Place [2ND]

Racing Tycoon who stumbled in its last run looks well prepared and can win in this poor set

Super Cool is working impressively and as such should place.

Maharidhi(5) can sneak in place at longer odds.

Race3:Camocho Speed(8)-Win  [LOST]  Marquise(11)-Place [2ND]

Camocho speed was seen finishing on well over 5 furlongs,now runs in extended distance,well prepared and can cause first upset of the season,place looks certain.

Winjoy has been problematic,now runs with XNB,will be in contention.

Marquise failed when fancied can sneak in place.

Golden Jewel is tracking well but may not sustain.

Race4:Agasthya(5)-Win [LOST]   Cannon ace(6)-Place [Third]

Ignore last runs of Agasthya,will be on job and can win

Cannon Ace should place.

Race5:Divine Ganges(8)-Win [LOST]    Fearless Mission(5)-Place [UP]

Nano Storm and Vijay Keerthi require more ground to warm up.

Cristiano suffered a big setback in last Monsoon,now runs after long lay off,looks well prepared but may need this run.

Divine Ganges can upset if the jockey can handle properly.

Fearless Mission can sneak in place at longer odds.

Race6:Vijays Jet(9)-Win [WON]  StarSaloni(7)-Place [2ND] 


Vijays  Jets looks outstanding and can be considered as days best.


Star Saloni has good credentials to finish in place money.


Race7:Hawkspring(5)-Win [LOST]   Our Mascot(6)-Place [UP]


Hawkspring is well poised to score an encore here.

Our Mascot would have been ideal first choice if not for jockey and -ve change of shoes.Finishing time of last run was too good to be ignored,if tried can upset.

Race8:Pedalo(6)-Win   [LOST]  Golden Palace(7)-Place [UP]

Pedalo looks outstanding and should win.

Both Golden Palace and Rosemead have good chance to place at longer odds.

Race9:Palace Affairs(7)-Win [LOST]    Flowers Of Music(2)-Place [2ND] 

Bad race.

Palace Affairs is tracking well and gets preference over others solely on that count.

Flowers of Music can place at longer odds.

Days Best:Vijays Jet


Double:Pedalo
