Mumbai 28.12.2014

Race 1: 4 horse race but a very interesting one. Argyle Pink, first run with no trackwork its likely that the horse has been prepared on a private track last win was at a similar handicap and distance last year has the best jokey in the set and that seems to be the only advantage. Cumbre Vieja, and Bonobo, have run together twice and the second named has finished far ahead on both occasions but the first named was never extended on both occasions and was eased up 200 meters from the post today positive jockey and Blinkers on expect a start to finish mission on him he is the one to beat. Azadegan, has finished and un extended 4th only 2.5l behind word of honor at a similar handicap and if you take that as a gauge of his potential he is better then Cumbre Vieja, and Bonobo, and is tracking very well too on that basis is my first pick. An open race but look for a value bet.

Tips: Azadegan, Cumbre Vieja, 


Race 2: Youngsters and first timers so hard to say I prefer early foals as they are more mature hence Phoenix Fire, is my pick but its best to watch this race.

Tips: Phoenix Fire,

Race 3: The Big Bull, is a much improved horse and will be the one to beat however Celtic King, and Wentworth, will give him a run for the money. the last named is very well prepared and looked very fit and strong in the mock race needs more distance but is fresh and on a decent handicap and should be right there. The second named is the joker in the pack positive change of jockey and the fact that he has run well against good horses suggest he has a very good chance of an upset.


Tips: The Big Bull,                Upset: Celtic King, 


Race 4: Interesting race with a lot of front runners and fast horses which will make the finish very interesting. Artiste,Soothsayer, and Blue Flame, are my top 3 picks being a fast run race it will suit the swoopers and the second and third named are the ones to watch the last named should run a very good race today and can win if tried. Make note of  Golden Lilly, and Move In Time,  here who are probably not on job and looking for a demotion but should be considered for minor combinations as if they are given light they can create a flutter specially the last named.


Tips: Blue Flame,Artiste,                                          Upset: Soothsayer,

Race 5 : Hard to go past Amazing Grace, but Master Shifu, will keep her honest today dont be surprised if the favorite is caught napping.

Tips: Amazing Grace,

Race 6: Made To Measure, was an impressive winner last time and should be the one to beat however there are two horses here that can be overlooked.Essence Of Love, and Born To Win, the last named is a nice animal and should be in the fray with sandesh in the saddle. Expect a lot of improvement from the fist named will be right there today.

Tips: Born To Win,Made To Measure,               Upset: Essence Of Love,

Race 7: Ravello,Don Corleone,Kazuri, Hidden Asset, Valentino, Himalayan Queen, and Arrete, all have a fair chance to win here as they all seem to be in great shape. Best to avoid or look for value.

Tips:  Ravello,Don Corleone,          Upset: Hidden Asset, (note)

Race 8: Another wide open race but make note of Khaleefa, and Sunshine Heart, as both these runners will improve a lot after their last run.

Tips: Khaleefa, Extreme Love,UpsetSunshine Heart,
