December 28, 2019

Sunday races




At both centres limited contenders in most races . Looks like favorites will have upper hand in many races. Not a day for those looking at long shots 😑

Good luck.

BLR races



1. Livisilla. Gallic.

Race for maidens , field consists predominantly of debutants in race For 2 year Old's.

Forest Flame is tracking very well and has a good rider. Will run at low odds. Not worth a bet for obvious reasons.

Golden Oaks may need more distance , besides rider has poor judgement.

Gallic with benefit of run may do well with better saddle support.

Livisilla & Drusilla are from same stables. One of them has scope to do well here if they take a good jump from gates.

Capital Gain is tracking well.

2.  Mayurana. Orogenesis.

As good as class VB race as most 3 year Old's are non winners / non performers finishing double distance behind. Being no whip race leads to more confusion.  Picking best of junk is easy. Pick least fancied horses.

3.  Kanthaka. Turf Prospector.

This is original class VB junk race

4. Sahara. Constantinople.

Bernardini is on promotion. Hence difficult to Win. Top weight does not help matters.

Blue Moon has seen better class , top handicap may affect its chances.

Shortlisted horses have potential to do well based on its previous performances.

Poseidon is due for a win . Could place.

Most other runners have no credentials.

5. Crack of Dawn. Mighty Red.

Class 3 Cup  race for horses which have not Won for ages / maidens. Only 5  mediocre horses  in fray reflects lack of confidence of trainers over this trip.

6. Life Awaits. Side Winder.

Feature event of day. Class 1 where horses 378 may be out of depth going by previous runs. A couple of horses are promoted from class 2 , few winners at Mysore. Few riders are junk. Are these the only horses rated 60+  in blr. Not a class 1 race by any standard.

Attorney General won after 2 years in lower class. Hence not a certainty.

7. Whizzo. Zhu Zhu Zest.

Another race where older horses have least  chance to succeed thereby horses 5689 eliminated.  Horse 10 has poor form and 7 is maiden .

8. Tazamour.  Dragon Mountain

Same remarks as race 2.


One of those days where 7 out of 8 races have non performers in fray.


You need to be Lucky 😑 at the races today

December 27, 2019

Madras , most races only 2 place payouts. Unless there are some value bets no point in wagering as Odds will be low due to limited runners.  Thursday card seems very healthy ,  atleast there is some hope to EARN due to big field.  X'mas day card very drab.

3. Queens Hall. Shreyas Pet.

4. Tudor Treasure.  Glorious Destiny.

Monday Hyd races


6 rides for AK all of which may be fancied.  Sunday was blank.  Card looks dicey. Look for value bets. No point choosing horses offered at low odds.


1. Lombardy. Royal Valentine.

Royal Romance is also good from first timers

2. Recumbentibus. All Star General.

3. Mahashakti. Exclusive Art.

E.Art runs after long break. Low odds.

KB low odds.

Open race.

6. Artistrry. Pentagon.

No whip race . Can't back favorite.

Good day

December 21, 2019

Selections for - Dual Centre races -


Shortlisted horses for Hyderabad.


1. Lightning Pearl. Whiskey Martini.

Kapell Bruke finished ahead of LP in # 44. There is scope for reversal of form.  KB will start as favorite , worth taking chance on LP.  

Race for 2 year old's , many a time form is reversed or some debutant shows up with a Winning performance.

Amongst new comers , WM has superior bloodlines to create a flutter. Those who wish to avoid Jodi can look at this horse for upset.  Shanu Shanu is bred for speed.


2.  Blazing Speed ,  Country's Pet.

Junk horses , obvious there is no merit. But then someone has to finish ahead of rest. Hoping these 2 do well.

3. Reno Star , Flamboyant Lady .

Older horses have no chance to even Place. 

From the 3 year old's in fray R.Star looks to have better credentials than GG , not only on form but saddle support. Flamboyant Lady has a fair chance to Place , prev run was over uncomfortable distance + superior company.

4.  Marinetti. Sporting Smile.

Blazer is woefully out of form.  Miss Marvellous needs a full rider .  Horses 678 have least chance to even Place.

Ayur Shakti has been doing well in recent outings. Has a good chance to Place. 

Sporting Smile appeals due to low weights in handicap race.

5. Unstoppable. Tapatio

Lot of non performers in fray. One can only go by Ratings , rider declared & probable odds on offer. 

6. Exclusive Blue / Havelock Cruise.

PV is yet to lose in Hyderabad. HV has Won last 2 starts. 

Going by the way PV has Won in recent outings , it may start as favorite. HV has raced with Consigliori which is better than PV.  Jockey Akshay can help reverse standing with PV .

Exclusive Blue last 3 outings handicap was stiff due to which the horse struggled to keep up with pace . Has raced with Impavid which is definitely superior to PV.  With change of stables and low weights a better show cannot be ruled out.

7. Dillon , Sun Dancer.

Junk race , younger horses given preference.

Jockey Akshay Kumar is seen in most races. Punters can expect him to Win 5 races but reality is often different.  Foolish to suggest all his mounts or even bet on his Winners if  Win odds is meagre. No harm in losing money betting on a higher priced horse ridden by him. Punters need to see his form for the day and decide accordingly. A couple of early Wins , then best to skip rest. They may Win but makes sense to keep away , opt for Place bets on some other horse.


@ Mumbai


1. Divine Timing. Blazing Bay

No clear favorite as all are non winners seen in handicap race. Weights will have an impact. Those running after long layoff are best ignored. Lot of fancied horses are seen in outer draw. So there could be issues at the start . Hence Opting for 2 long shots .

2. Castilian , Headway.

Jodi race , going with First named due to handicap.

3. Tudor Hall , Elation.

Older horses have ZERO chance to even Place.  Horses with pull in weights as well as  superior saddle skills opted.  Galloping Goldmine can at best Place.

4. Flying Visit.

Roberta has let down several times. No point backing it for Win. Flying Visit Place may be a safer bet. Those willing to take a risk can back it for Win too.

5. Maxine , Birkin Blower , Rising Sun.

tough race , since many first timers with unknown potential competing with a couple of experienced horses. One can only go by instinct as few trainers have multiple entries. Horse has to jump out of gates smartly & keep straight course.  Difficult to bet confidently. Hence option is to go with long shots. Low investment high returns.

6. Sultan Suleiman. Knight Templar. Wizard of Stocks.

No detailed analysis 😏😀. Not in any order as such. Hoping a couple of these do well.



7. Antarctica.  Felix Felicis.

Junk race for horses rated below 30. How many fancied horses have ever won these types of races . Minefield. Why not lose attempting to Earn big than Lose BIG attempting to earn Less. 😉


Good day , hope you enjoy the races .

Mumbai choices


Card looks simple but as often is the case results may turn out to be different 😶 too too many fancied horses from P.Shroff and wont be surprising if punters expect him to lead  winners in all 5 races. Foolish to bet on short priced favorites so if any shortlisted horse runs at low odds , ignore.

December 1, 2019

Hyd choices



1. MidNight Dream. Prince Valiant.

PV may start as favorite. Not a certainty at this handicap.

MD has a fair chance to do well.

Marianetti & City of Wisdom are contenders for place.

2. Southern Meteor. Secretary.

Horses 238 have no chance. Air Salute is maiden. Running Fire concedes weight.

So looking above 2 horses.  Secretary gets a proper rider after long time.

3. Beyond Limits.  Tapatio ( Edited )

BL won on debut impressively. Faces couple of good horses , looks tough here but can oblige.

Ayur Shakti & Red Snaper are contenders for minor placings.

Keep an eye on Royal Treat failed favorite on debut. If body weight normal can take a chance for place.

City of Blossom over 1400 trip is doubtful.

4. Royal Green. Vancouver.

Looking at an upset in this race.

5. Tootsie Roll.  Golden Fortune.

347 have no chance. Nayadeep may find this field tough to handle leaving 125 as contenders.

PP is younger horse obvious choice but first trip over mile + handicap not in favour. At low odds not worth a risk for Win.

6. Kariega.  Ice Floe.

Paso Robles has beaten ordinary bunch. Hence ignored for Win.

Horses 3 & 7 have least chance. Cape Kidnappers most experienced . With only 2 payouts best to skip.  British Empress has done distance earlier. Well bred.  Has a good rider , late finisher .Can so well.

Kariega has credentials based on its recent tracks. Well bred & has best local rider . Worth taking each way chance for the Odds.

Ice Floe can be considered for Pedigree of Rider & Horse.

7. Ashwa Arjun. Button Wood.

Low class race .

Good day
