Mumbai 28-04-2013

Race 1: Very open race unsure which of his runner will Lagad try which makes is difficult best to avoid the race.Horses 1-7-8 are my shortlisted 3 if ridden on merit.

Tips: Starsonboard,    Upset: Ancient Odyessy,(note)

Race 2: Another race where any thing goes and best to avoid make note of Lucky Red, who has been brought down in class for the pune season may spring a surprise.

Tips: To The Moon, Upset: Lucky Red,

Race 3: Stella, is long overdue for a win if tried today which is likely she should win.Fairy Empress, is the danger note.

Tips: Stella,            Upset: Fairy Empress, 

Race 4: The fancied 3 of Casino Jack,Star Builder, and Jens Secret, have a edge over the field I am going for the one with a better handicap and jockey. This race however has a a open look with a few surprise packets entered here, Horses 4-5-6 have the merit to cause an upset Strike Again, has run some good races and has a fair chance over this trip and Zeki, who has come to hand has the work jockey who has prepared her can upset note.

Tips: Jens Secret,Strike Again,                 Upset: Zeki, 

Race 5:Purple Mokara, has the best racing form in this set however this is her third race of the month plus being a filly in this heat it will be difficult if she wins good luck but not worth a bet, Matrioshka, comes second best was given a bad ride last run should be the one to beat.Watchout for My Diva, and Double Diamond, as both can upset the last named is probably being brought down for pune so avoidable.

Tips: Purple Mokara,                    Upset: My Diva,

Race 6: Protector Of Paris, will run a better race then before but with so many first timers its hard to say. the choice of jockey on stablemate Archimedes, is strange as he is tracking very well. Best to avoid.

Race 7: Very unusual for Pesi to run a horse after such a long break is tracking well can win but not outstanding by any means. Alaindair, was a impressive winner last time and Bombardier,who is one of the most improved horses in the set can beat the favorite. Make note of Golden Princess, she is blazing the track and is on a very good handicap can upset.

Tips: Bombardier,              Upset: Golden Princess,

Race 8: Avoidable race or take a chance on Star Of Babylon, who is tracking well.

Race 9: Emerald Valley,

Mumbai 21-3-2013

Race 1: VB gamble horses both of Antias animals have a very good chance and all being equal Tomorrows Dreams, will be the one to beat.Arabian Lord, is the joker in the pack and is the most consistent of the horses.

Tips: Tomorrows Dreams,                Upset: Arabian Lord,

Race 2: Myla Rose, 

Race 3: Hurricane Wind, has a slight edge on jockey merit.

Race 4: Presence, is running among his peers for the first time I have always felt he is a nice animal that will be in class  1 in due course. the sparingly raced Raptor, is way above this class of horses if all is well he is the danger dont worry about the jockey.

Tips: Presence,          Upset: Raptor,(note)

Race 5: A very open race and all runners have a equal chance its best to avoid or look for a Value each way bet here.Viva Zapata, is down in class and is running his pet distance should be the one to beat.By The Way, is the dark horse

Tips:(note) Viva Zapata,By The Way,

Race 6: A very open race Hawaiian Princess, has a slight edge as she is a improving horse.Quid Pro Quo,  is the danger.

Tips: Hawaiian Princess, Upset: Quid Pro Quo, 

Race 7: Oxbridge, has a fair chance to win here however Hot Pepper, and Lavender Brown, will keep him honest.

Tips:Oxbridge,  Upset: Lavender Brown,

Race 8: Bad race best to avoid Allegiance, Capri,and Highway Express, are my picks in order of preference.

Mumbai 20 04 2013

Race 1 : Bad race best to avoid.
Tips: Neptune,  Ice Age, 

Race 2: Mountain Force, has a slight advantage here as the heat and distance can affect the fillies.

Tips: Mountain Force,

Race 3: Soneeyo, and Nush, toss up riding skills will matter.

Race 4: Baroness, has a clear advantage over the field due to experience and the jockey.To The Manor Born, and Fontanelle, are tacking well and if they are good animals it is likely they will beat the first named best to avoid.

Race 5: Stolen Relic, seems a nice horse should be the one to beat.Mountain Wind, is a joker in the pack here and can upset note.

Tips: Stolen Relic,         Upset: Mountain Wind, (note)

Race 6: Rio, has an edge here should be the one to beat. Modus Vivendi, ia the obvious danger.

Tips: Rio,

Race 7: The manner in which Wentworth, is tracking it is evident that she is a good type and is the one to beat.Carlton House, has a very good gallop and is the obvious danger.

Tips: Wentworth,Carlton House,

Race 8: Hay Day, is at a good handicap advantage and should be the one to beat.Wish Upon A Star, and Reinstate, are the danger.

Tips:(note) Hay Day, Wish Upon A Star,

Mumbai 7-4-2013

Race 1: A very interesting race with many runners likely to be tried and a gamble on few horses at higher odds is likely.Dreams R Mine,New Star, and Eveready, are the horses I am talking about. The last named is the best of the lot on paper has always run and done well in terms races to is running first time in handicap that too VB which is a huge drop in class but the fact that there is no track-work and a long layoff suggest something is wrong if the paddock conditions are good take a chance. the second named is a nice animal once again sparingly raced so fitness is the ?? but don't worry about the jockey in this set the horse will be tried and should finish in the fray.I am fairly confident that there will be a gamble on Dreams R Mine, and if I am right he will be the one to beat as he is tracking very well.

Tips :(note for a Gamble) Dreams R Mine,              Upset: New Star, (note)

Race 2: A bad race however there will be a gamble on Only White, and if I am right he will be the one to beat.Ibis, should run a good race in this set.

Tips: Only White,Ibis,

Race 3: Sariska, is a filly and will be running her 3rd hard race in 24 days its a lot specially for a filly best to avoid.Festival Night,Fireheart, and Erotic Flame, should be tried here and should be the ones to beat. The first named is ready to strike and should be the one to beat. The last named is the joker in the pack here note her for a upset but keep in mind she belongs to H Metha and Co.

Tips :Festival Night,           Upset:  Erotic Flame,

Race 4: It is interesting to see a horse rated 76 is accepted in an 80 and above race so its obvious that Sumo, is good enough to beat this set according to the trainer.There is absolutely no doubt he lost a certain race last time thanks to the jockey but the question is who did he actually beat and if you compare that with the rest of the field you will realize that he has a tough task ahead of him as this is a very good set of horses.He can win but wont be easy and it will be the jockeys skills that will get him there.Spirit Of Mercy,  is best on handicap between horses 2-3-4 as they have run against each other in races 35-145-262. Mighty Crusader, can easily over looked here as he has no form but if you consider his last run where he finished 5lths behind Haciko you can expect him to improve a lot today as a mile is his pet trip and I personally feel if ridden on merit today he will win with ease.

Tips :Mighty Crusader,Spirit Of Mercy,

Race 5: Have got no clue what Razeenaa, is doing in this class should be the one to beat.Make note of Impressive Touch, as Imtiaz has opted to run her in a higher class is very well placed on handicap and can upset don't Ignore.

Tips: Razeenaa,             Upset: Impressive Touch,(note)

Race 6: Being a Class 1 sprint its difficult to judge as the race can be run 10 times and the result will be different as jockey skills and timing the runs is the key and make note any of the 6 runners can win I am going with best 2 jockey in the set.

Tips: Amadeus,Master Bullet,(toss up)

Race 7: Open race for youngsters but Trisara, is the one to beat looks a very speedy animal.Emperor Of France, and You're The Boss,  also cant be overlooked specially the last named best to avoid the race.

Race 8: The Karl Umrigar trophy is one of the most prestigious races in Western India and Pesi is very closely attached to this trophy, If my memory serves me correct since he has become a trainer he has won this race and I am sure he has kept his best for the last.In saying that today his ambitions will be tested as there are many horses here that are prepared with this race in mind and may the best horse win.Ace Fantasy,  Falco Nero, and Sydney, are first timers but are blazing the track the last named named was very impressive on his mock race and should run a very good race the second and first named wont make it easy for any one. Alaindair,Haunting Moments, and Insignia, have had the benefit of a run and are very well prepared and should be the ones in the fray the Last named should win here if all goes well.

Tips :Insignia,                 Upset: Haunting Moments,

Race 9: Looking at the field you can safely end your day with Zakynthos, today. Danger if any is Soneeyo, 

Tips: Zakynthos,                   Upset: Soneeyo, 

Days Best: Zakynthos,
Double: Insignia, Zakynthos,
Kaichi or win bets: Razeenaa,Amadeus, Insignia, Zakynthos,

Bolt from the Blue:New Star,  Mighty Crusader,

Mumbai 31-03-2013

Race 1:If all is well Roswald, will repeat.

Race 2: With most of the horses being ridden by not on job jockeys or gamble jockeys its hard to see who will be tried here to challenge  
Capri, Horses 6-12-13 have a fair chance to upset if tried. Asahi, has beaten horses that have come on to win races later this season but a long lay off and no track so hard to say. Lucky Red, is a horse to note, not sure if there is intent but will run a good race no matter what.

Tips ;Capri, Asahi,Upset: Lucky Red,

Race 3: Pesi has opted to run Winston, in a span of 3 days to avoid a wining penalty which is a rare occurrence in his case its obvious he feels the horse will win. Jimbo, is now well rested and is fresh can upset.

Tips: Winston, 

Race 4: This is a race for prestige and all horses will be tried the well bred first timers  Beforememoryfades,and Mint Approach, are tracking well but first run so hard to say the first named is better.Horses 2-3-9 have had a run and are prepared well with this race in mind. Intesar, in particular looks ready to run them off their feet and should be the one to beat. You can never rule Pesi horses out in big races Badshah, does have a outside chance.


Tips ;(note)Intesar, Beforememoryfades,          Upset: Badshah, 

Race 5: Star Fire Lady, Equinox, and Striking Girl, have a good chance if tried in this very open race for un genuine horses.Best to avoid.

Tips: Striking Girl, Star Fire Lady, Upset: Equinox, 

Race 6: A very bad race best to avoid Star Builder, should make the most of his handicap provided the intent is there.Reinstate, and Brunello, should be in the fray.

Tips: Star Builder,Brunello,

Race 7: The term of the race favor Hemisphere,Manyatta, and Montezuma, the last named is a filly running in a span of 3 days hence avoided. the first two are well rested and ready for a battle jockey skills will matter but i give the second named a slight edge.

Tips:(note) Manyatta,Hemisphere,

Race 8: Acclaimed,Blazing Fire, and Summer Eclipse, are tracking very well and should be the ones to beat.the choice of jockey on the first named is strange but going by track will be the one to beat. the second and last named are also good and look speedy not sure about last named but the second named will definitely be tried.

Tips ;  Acclaimed,          Upset: Blazing Fire,(note)

Race 9: A gamble race and any horse can win with the right intent Sariska, Three Roses,Follow Me, and Macho Uno, are my short listed horses.

Mumbai 17-3-13

Interesting card today A Sandesh has very good mounts today and it will be a good day to follow him.

Race 1: not a lot of horses with any form most have fitness issues on paper Midnight Lady, has some form but has blood vessel issues and belongs to H Metha so proceed with caution. From the rest there isnt much to go by but Mcqueen, who has finished within 10l or less in all her 6 starts has come down a lot and in this company even if not tried will at worst place I have a feeling he will be tried and is worth a small eachway bet.

Tips: Midnight Lady,           Upset: Mcqueen,(note)

Race 2: A similar race to the first one Windmill Lady, has the best performance of the set and should be the one to beat, horses 1-4-5-8-9 all can run well provided they are tried There is a likely gamble on Casino Jack, and if money comes his way he will win.

Tips: Casino Jack,

Race 3: A very interesting race which can go anyway and jockey skills will matter.

Tips: Blue Ace, 

Race 4 : Toss up between Mountain Force, and Honest Pleasure, Jockey and handicap favor the latter.

Tips: Honest Pleasure,

Race 5: Sea Pearl, and Amara, should fight for honors here the second named is better but it will pay to watch the flow of money on him as he belongs to H Metha. The first named will be right there and can upset>

Tips: Amara,       Upset: Sea Pearl,

Race 6: Fond Memories, and One Wish, toss up can go any way. The sparingly raced Lavender Brown, is well bred and tracking well to mile wont be a issue if his paddock condition is good he can upset here.

Tips :One Wish,  Upset: Lavender Brown,

Race 7: Invincible, Cosmic Dancer, and The Ministerian,  the first two have shown a lot of improvement in there track work and both look to be the ones to beat. The last named has a good outside chance and can run close as he has run in far superior company and should run a good race.

Tips: Invincible, Cosmic Dancer,          Upset: The Ministerian, 

Race 8: Starry Eyes, is a very good animal but 4 runs in 60 days for a filly is not a ideal scenario plus the fact that she is going over a mile and conceding weight doesn't help her cause best o avoid or halve your bets. saying that there are not a lot of horses of her caliber running here which can work in her favor but still avoidable. 3 Horses that have a very good chance of beating her here are   
Circle Of Life, who finished a impressive second over a mile first up and now is stripped fitter should improve and take advantage of the handicap.Janis Jay, who was impressive in her debut too and will improve a lot after that run has a very good turn of foot and should be the one that can upset and Lastly Southern Sky, who ran a very impressive race first up dint look ready at all now she has been stripped fitter and will be the one they have to beat.

Tips:Southern Sky, Circle Of Life,          Upset: Janis Jay,

Race 9: Mars, is my first choice in this wide open race should run a good race and is the one to beat. Make note of Presence, he is one under rated animal who will run a very good race here and will make his presence felt should be in the top 3 winning is very likely.

Tips: Mars, Presence, (note)

Race 10: A Bad race best to avoid many chances 

Tips: Song Of Sparrow,Ice Skates,     Upset: Rubens,
