Pointer for Pune 25 Aug 07

Race 1: Wieght is a major factor to discount the top 3 horses as they are maiden and up in wieght and distance will be a big ask.My pick is 4. CRIMSON RED who ran a forward race after being gelded in the Aug Handicap has the handicap advantage and should win from 5. PURSUIT OF POWER with a decent jockey on his back today the race should be between the two.

Race 2: Very open race where a gamble cant be ruled out in my opinion on form TEASER should win well here however the danger will be from 7. RAINBOW SHINE or 8. SHARAPOVA on whom I believe there will be a gamble today. On track 1. HITZ is out standing and even with oza can surprise this set but whoever win will have to beat Teaser.

Race 3: From a punting point of view this race is best left alone,At best 6. MEMORABLE DAY will place.The winner can come from first timers on this track 10. BLOOM is a nice horse and has been prepared well on this track hence can spring a surprise. but it will be a hard race to pick a winner as about 6 horses are in with a fair chance .They are 3/5/7/8/9/10 good luck if you can pick a winner I will place a small eachway bet on 7. PRINCE LOCHINVA

Race 4: On handicap and with a befit of a run 6. STRAWBERRY FIELDS is better then 2. GRUEZI . But the horse that stands an out standing chance in this set is 7. ROYAL FLASH who belongs to a gambeling stable but at this handicap are sure to try their luck and can suceed if all goes well Hence I tip 7. ROYAL FLASH to win from 10. ZEPHYRELLA and 6. STRAWBERRY FIELDS .

Race 5: If THE HURRICANE wants to win here he will have to work hard to beat 3. ROYAL HUNT who is my choice to beat the favorite.

Race 6: 5. REGAL REFORM should win well in this set 4. SHARP MEMORY looks a good bet in place.

Race 7 : Bad race 1. TE QUIERO if on job should beat 8. MAGIC WORDS if not the latter should win well.

Days Best: R Reform
Treble: R Reform,R Flash and R Hunt
Upsets: Hitz and Bloom

All the best
