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.
