Mumbai 22-12-2013

Race 1: can go any ways as VB over 12 flg so best to avoid the pace will be slow and Zafirah, is likely to make it start to finish and if the field takes her for granted she can upset. Its best to avoid this race.On Paper Scalanaya, does have merit but I don't think she is a stayer.

Race 2: Anahi, and Hawaiian Princess, toss up the latter has a slight edge due to the jockey factor.

Tips: Hawaiian Princess,

Tips: Victorious Cause,Song Of Africa,

Race 2: Electra, who is down in class and running 4yo and over has a good drop in class and running among her peers if she takes a level start she will be the one to beat. Laurus Tikati, is tracking very well and siting on a nice handicap should make the most of it and should be right there if serious.

Tips: Laurus Tikati, Electra,

Race 3: Papakura, who's last run is best ignored is very well placed on handicap and should run a good race. Scarlet Pimpernel, is runnig after a long lay off not sure on his fitness. If Monza, run a genuine race then she will win.

Tips: Monza, Papakura,

Race 4: Port Blair, and Way Out, toss up the second named is running on this track for the first time hence is not back-able the first named will improve a lot from the last run and should be the one to beat. Rio, is the dark horse here can upset.

Race 5: A wide open race and can go any way. My top 3 are Que Sera Sera, Yellowzone, and Ultrasonic, the second named runs best fresh and can win her and the first named is the danger to all today.

Tips: Yellowzone,                          Upset: Que Sera Sera, 

Race 6: Interesting race Amazing Grace, is a filly running her first run over 10 flg is tracking well but in a field of 12 genuine runners its difficult to say as she lacks experience. Very rarely does Pesi run a filly in a span of 10 days its obvious he believes Dreams Of You,is better than her last run as she lost because of the slow pace today will be a different proposition.Looking at the bigger picture my shortlisted 3 are Dreams Of You, Dixie Delight, and Penny Lane, the last two have had a huge drop in class and are very well placed on handicap and will be the ones to beat. The second named will relish the long straight of Mumbai and is the most experienced of the lot hence my first pick.


Tips: Dixie Delight,Penny Lane, Dreams Of You,

Race 7: THE DELTIN CASINOS INDIAN 1000 GUINEAS (GR.1)

1) Ainra,: Pace maker who will make a scorching pace that will help a few outside draw is the issue.
2) Amelia,: Was very strange for Pesi to pack her up after her classic win its obvious that he wanted to spell her for her mumbai classic campaign. her current preparation and the mock race suggest this is the race she is targeted for because it is her optimum trip she will run a very good race has a tremendous turn of foot and should give S Zervan no excuses.

3) Arch Duchess,: Another pacemaker with a wide draw.

4) Beforememoryfades,: Very impressive winner first up ran a very good race and is the most improved filly in the set her acceleration and the manner of victory was a clear indication of her class and she will be right there to beat them all.

5) Circle Of Life, has had no luck in the race for the last two runs with hughes aboard hope her luck changes and she does not stumble or get in traffic jam once again should run a good race if all goes well.

6) Isn't She Special,: Not here maybe after this run.

7) Keukenhof,: A very genuine and talented animal gives a 100% every time will run a good race again but will need more than that in this field.

8) Mariinsky,: Has done nothing wrong besides travelling all over today she is running among her peers for the first time and will need more to prove what she has, I personally would stay away from her today as she is not outstanding.

9) Mauna Kea,: Was a much talked about horse after her debut and if she wins here the talk will start again, She is a very strong galloper and the fast pace will suit her a lot but class will let her down.

10) Mint Approach, : Has not lost a race on this track but there is always a first . Today the company will be tough on her.

11) Sheer Class,: Here is a horse that can spring a surprise, Sparingly raced due to some issues but has a bright future once she comes right. In her last run she was fractious and was hanging a lot suggesting she was a bit under but that run will do her a lot good keeping in mind she dis run a good second last run and her previous win where she ran after her long lay off she will relish the fast pace of the race and is the one that can upset.

12) Starry Eyes,: Is well prepared but I am not too sure of her class Has won 3 races beating Scenic Warrior rated (53), Janis Jay Rated 48 and Forest vision rated 28. And has been beaten fair and square by Marinsky and Amelia cant see that changing now.

13) Trance,: Will love the long stretch run and the fast pace will be finishing on in the fray although see is a bit down on class she will run a fair race and I wont be surprised if she finishes on board.

Over all a very open race but the top 4 contenders are 2-4-5-11. I am inclined to give Circle of life another chance but wont be surprised if Amelia or Sheer class win.

Tips: Circle Of Life, Amelia,              Upset: Sheer Class,(note)

Race 8: Kazuri, has a benefit of an easy run and will improve a lot should be the one to beat. Royal Sapphire, and War Command, seem to be in a forward condition and should run good races.

Tips: Kazuri,                     Upset:  Royal Sapphire

Race 9: There will be a Gamble on Mambo Magic, today and if I am right he will win.

Tips: Mambo Magic,

Race 2: Spanish Fly, and Dance With Me, Toss up the first named is running after a long layoff.

Race 4: Golden Princess, if tried is ready to strike and can beat them all today.King Of The Court, is coming of a long layoff but can be in the picture.

Tips: Golden Princess, King Of The Court,

Race 5: Camorra, who set a scorching pace last time will be fitter and well after that run trackwork is very good too and Sun Kingdom, who is coming back to form have the class to beat this set the first named has a advantage due to jockey. Nadia, is horse that can upset will run a good race today.

Tips: Camorra,                       Upset: Nadia,

Race 6: Samara Sun,Nessie, and Sans Frontieres, are my top 3 in this wide open race.

Tips: Sans Frontieres,

Mumbai 8-12-13

Race 1: A very interesting race all 8 runners are in with a fair chance if tried and it is likely that at least 6 horses will be tried here.Ace Of Diamond, and Always There, are two horses that have been off the radar brought down in class. Both will be tried  today and will be the ones to beat.

Tips: Ace Of Diamond, Always There, 

Race 2: Historically S Zervan has proven to lack judgement in the pace of the race when there is a small field and Jeremiah, can lose if the jockey is over confident here.

Race 3: Open race Brave Fighter, and Jens Secret, are my top two the first named has an edge due to jockey. An upset cant be ruled out here and if there is one it will be Aravali, 

Tips: Brave Fighter,                      Upset: Aravali, 

Race 4: Youngsters so hard to say Rajsamman, is speedy but immature and is too fast for his own good and in the long straight will be caught up.Star Benevolent, has come to hand nicely and will run a very good race today will be a danger to all. Zaagros, and Presence, are two horses here that have a very good chance but the strange choice in jockeys is an issue however keeping in mind that this is a trophy race intent is very likely, Presence is by far a superior animal and if sound will win here. 
Peritomoreno, is running for the first time so hard to say in this experienced set.

Tips: Presence,Star Benevolent,                      Upset: Zaagros,

Race 5: First timers so hard to say.High Expectation, and  Koalaa, will run a good race.The first named will be the one to beat.

Tips :Rekindle,   Upset: Polynesia, 

Race 7: Dancing Phoenix, manner of victory was very good and in a 5 flg race will be hard to catch. Keeping in mind this is a terms race and the horse that is best suited is the old Weizhou, who still has a bit of fight in him but I am not too sure today. Make note of Emerging Star, here he was not ridden on mert last run was just a lung opener and malesh always tries him in a 5flg.

Tips:Dancing Phoenix, Upset: Emerging Star, 

Race 8: Wide open race horses 1-2-5-9-14-16 have a fair chance to win. Archimedes, and Shygirl, are definitely the best of the lot but both are awkwardly drawn and that throws the race wide open. the first named looks very well prepared and should be right there no matter what the excuse and is the one to beat.Sailor, and Superlicious, who are tracking well also have a good outside chance but once again awkwardly drawn malesh has opted to suraj when he will be carrying over weight shows intent but sailor is better of the two if tried.Tell Me More, is the joker in the pack he always runs best when he is fresh age is against him but I am fairly confident that he will run a good race and can upset or should place at good odds. Since this race is The ATTILA Trophy a sentimentle bet on her half sister Queen Of Venus, can go a long way.

Tips: Archimedes,Sailor,                  Upset: Tell Me More,

Race 9: Bad race best to avoid Scarlet Of Hope,  is the one to beat at this handicap.Shockalot, can upset is tracking well.

Tips: Scarlet Of Hope,                                          Upset: Shockalot,

Race 2 : hard to say as first timers Black Areca,  will be the one to beat. Booker Jones, is bred for speed and if fit can upset.

Race 3: Open gamble race many chances and many visible tries best to avoid View From Above, is he takes a level start will be the one to win. Royal Romario, is tracking very well and should be right there along with Mountain Storm, who is sitting on a good handicap.

Tips: View From Above, Upset: Royal Romario, 

Race 4: Applejack, has a good handicap advantage here but if Apollo King, or Sussex Downs, are asked to gallop they can upset. The last named is definitely a better horse than the favorite who is here stable mate.
