Hyderabad 14th Feb-->Selections

Rally of bad days continues..Hoping for some respite on this SPECIAL day of Hyderabad season.


As the season draws to end one should note that Timings are becoming faster.Horse with second wind are having clear advantage over front runners.Many hidden horses are suddenly sprouting wings and defying all handicapping logic.

Multiple entries in 5 races from notorious bogus stable of Ld silva.Iam surprised and pained to see  a professional who till last few years was undisputed champion being reduced to unreliable person


Race1:Lady Of Grace(6)

Art Connoissuer has lost form completely,in last run was struggling to keep up with pace,can be ignored.

Break Away runs in this lower class but should have sported A shoes,absence from track is another reason to ignore.

YoungPower is back to lowest class.One must note that in this class on No False Rails Day it could not sustain till end over same distance,now on this False Rails Day has lesser chance,absence from track is another reason to ignore.

Lady Of Grace has disappointed in last two starts in same class,has witnessed handicap reduction,quietly prepared and made to run with multiple change of equipments,can surprise.

Sugar Deal is lethargic in start and cannot be trusted as it failed to impress even in modest set.

Race2:Vijay Splendour(5)

Vijay Splendour will settle will this time and should win.

Staminoizd gets better rider this time and can place.

Roses in Bloom running after 3 months,tracking well but the fact it was trying to run out in its debut run and no measure taken to rectify that cannot be ignored.

Meri Marzi can place at longer odds.


Race3:Max Baby(3)

Max Baby  has slipped down to  ideal handicap and can win now.

Emerald Touch may be ignored for stablemate.

Vijetha in same class under same rider displayed poor turn of foot,cannot be trusted.

The Best Man can place in this set.

Prayer Call ran good third in its last run,will place again.

Race4:Attenborough(2)

Kings Cruise will find this distance sharp.

Attenborough has been running consistent,last run was denied clear run,can raise winning gallop at all important end if stable Prince Prashant is not fancied.

Hurricane Dancer has remained non winner for two seasons,one gets the feeling it may do well in lower class.

Marquise is best for 1000mts.

Prince Prashant returned lame in its last run,likes to come off the pace and if initial pace is too hot it may not be able to do much.

Sun Bird is non winner for two years,stable mate Kings Cruise will be fancied,looking for class down ignore.


Race5:Key Note(3)

Ld silva has placed 3 runners in this race.

Kohinoor Supreme can stage pillar to post victory in this set.

Scubario with this rookie cannot be expected to do well

Key Note is in form and can force a win.


Race6:The Challenge(7)

Star Value is down in class but urged for response in tracks,ideal distance is 1200

The Challenge has been lightly penalised,can repeat.

Bang On Target can place at longer odds.

Race7:Komo Komo Komo(8)

None of the horses have outstanding credentials.

Something is brewing in Joel,there are positive signs of a coup but one thing that is bothering me is that it is at  rating of 26 and if it is unplaced here it can run in lower category,anyways small e/w would not do harm.

Komo Komo Komo has better credentials than Queens Necklace and Arudra.

Race8:Ashleen State(5)

Last time i tipped Bloody Mary without knowing the fact that its owners are have some issues with officials and as such not attending races.

Ld Silva's other ward Garabaldi belongs to purely gambling owners who would freely tip abt their horse when it is installed as hot fav ,if it wins good luck to them.

i would rather tip Ashleen State for consistency and stable
