Race 1: El Camino, looked very good in the mock race and looks a nice type that is coming to hand. But Brazil, and Rashun, are also in with a fair chance in particular the first named who was given two very easy runs today with Sandesh intent is clear and if the jockey on the favorite is thing of another Storming Home finish he will be beaten.
Tips: El Camino, Brazil,
Race 2: Athens, was a impressive winner last time and is the one to beat.
Tip: Athens,
Race 3: Interesting race, This race is a per cursor for future classics and all runners here are destined for a bright future. Illidan, is a favorite because of his finishing effort last time and a failed coup, The horse has been stripped fitter after that run and is probably destined to target classic in other centers but keep in mind in the last race the last 400 was run in about 25.3 which indicate the front running horses were slowing down so not worth basing your bet on that finish and it will pay to look at the rest of the field. Shivalik Showers, has been prepared well and has run in good company in mumbai will be one of the main contenders, Majesterian, is an interesting horse, it will pay to review her last run and see the ease at which the horse was finishing on now well prepared and with the step up in distance will be one they all have to worry about. Zazou, is another interesting prospect here did not have any luck last time was seen finishing on and was easy all the way now stripped fitter and at a handicap advantage against the favorite she has a fair chance. Savage Beauty, is an interesting prospect here has had two mock races and looks like she has been prepared with this race in mind although this is a very good set of horses she will ru an very good race only problem is she does not like the whip.
Tips: Majesterian,Zazou, Upset: Savage Beauty,
Race 4: This is another interesting and with a small field and all 4 runners like to dictate the pace it will come down to a very good finish and make no mistake any of the 4 horses can win. Caesars Star, is at a slight advantage here as the fast pace will suit him and he is the only horse that has run in graded race and the rest are on the upward spiral. Best to avoid the race or take a chance on Caesars Star.
Tips: Caesars Star,
Race 5:Difficult race, The terms of the race favor Clinton, who also loves this track short of a run but with a mock race looks well prepared, Form favors Heatwave, who with Sandesh can prove to be a thorn, Acclaimed, is running with the big boys today and he will be tested, The big boys are Commander,Supreme Star, and Clinton, and if you look at last pune seasons form the last named stands tall. The fist named will run a very good race today. Best to avoid this race or take a chance on the following two.
Tips: Clinton, Upset: Commander,
Race 6: Antartica Zone, Sombrero, Dancing Splendour, and National Gold, are my top 4 horses here the first two named have the form and should fight for honors the last two named have a very good chance of upsetting in particular the last named who is at a very good handicap and is 3yo running a handicap race for the first time can upset.
Tips: Sombrero, Antartica Zone, Upset: National Gold,
Race 7: Reality, and Two Oceans, should fight it out Minister, is the danger and can upset.
Tips: Reality, Two Oceans, Upset: Minister,
