GOOD BETS FOR THE DAY

TWO 4 EACH WAY
SIX 8 PLACE
EIGHT 6 EACH WAY
ELEVEN 6 PLACE

Noble Prince / Mountain Bear for St Leger

Long card of 11 events framed for the day and here are my views ;

1.Emerging Power and Bridge too far are the Contenders in this VB race.On handicap Emerging Powers looks better.The Horse was not allowed to perform to its potential under the earlier trainer.Last run was suggestive.Should be a Good each way bet.


2.If all's well with Encouragement, can WIN.Classic Spirit for Place.

Avoid Raging Chenb for WIN.

Master Planner has been doing well over longer distances only but seeing the latest track work , looks like there could be a gamble as most of the runners in this race have no record to fall back upon and might tire out in the home strech.

3.Kingdom of Love and Fiery Fortune are the Horses which can be considered for a Bet.

Alvida has done nothing till date to garner
support.

Ivanka has been a NON winner since 2007 after considering the enquiry for the ill judged ride last time ,chances are not looking good.The Jockey declared to ride also does not inspire confidence.


4.Red Dawn and Born to Lead for WIN or Each way based on racetime Odds.Hidden Dragon for Place.

Nectar Jewel may upset.

Cosmic Flower may not Bloom and is likely to be for the bookies.



5.Pacific Zone can challenge Monarchos who will be fancied.

Marmaris / Xiamen may place.



6.Speed is the essence of the sprint race and Pacemaker is capable of Winning on a start to finish mission.

Crespo / Tearaway and Tantik can put up a fight.Initmacy CAN only place not WIN.


7.Race for youngsters always thro out surprises. I would go with Fire Vault , Ravishing and Splendid Monarchy.The others do not impress me.


8.Engleheart will be in the limelight.

Enceladus and Pepe Junior are the ones which can come 2nd.

Avec Plaisir will find it difficult to even PLACE.



9.Mountain Bear ,Noble Prince and Imperial View are all bred to stay the distance.

On present form Noble Prince gets first preference.

Iam not sure if Sweeping Sucess will be able to repeat her earlier sucessess.A colt / Gelding is likely to annex this CUP.



10.ICE BREAKER , Salatoro , Golden Symbol.

The entries from the KND group all sport funny names and are not likely to pose any problems to the above mentioned Horses.


11.CLASSIC Star and Tommy Carmichael are tracking well.

Kalpavrushka may be fancied but consistency is not expected from the stables of this trainer.So ignore.

Black Dahlia is capable of a UPSET.



Good day

SELECTIONS FOR MUMBAI 30 MAR

DEAR ALL,
HERE ARE MY SELECTIONS FOR TODAY’S CARD. ALL IN ALL A VERY RIDICULOUS DAY OF RACING. MANY COMPETITIVE RACES. WINNER PICKING HAZARDOUS AND DIFFICULT.
1)BRIDGE TOO FAR SEEMS TO BE GOOD HERE. BUT THE HEAT IN MUMBAI IS AT RIDICULOUS LEVELS, AND 61.5 KGS SHOULD BE A DETERENT TO IT. CABINDA SHOULD FOLLOW IT HOME, EQUALLY RELUCTANTLY AT THAT.
2)VICEROY, RACING CHENB AND MASTER PLANNER COME INTO THE RECKONING HERE.H(APPY).J(OCKEY).ANTIA WILL MAKE THE ADJUSTMENT AND GO WITH VICEROY AND PROBABLY PASS HIS GAMBLE HERE. A SMALL PLACE BET ON VICEROY IS RECOMMENDED.
3)SMALL NUMBER OF RUNNERS BUT INVERSLY PROPORTIONATE CONFUSION.PONYTA, IVANKA, KINGDOM OF LOVE AND ALVIDA COME INTO THE RECKONING HERE. PONYTA SHOULD PLACE HERE, AND CAN MAKE IT WITH SERIOUS ODDS. TAKE A VERY SMALL CHANCE THOUGH.
4)RED DAWN, BORN TO LEAD AND SURAJ COMES INTO THE RECKONING HERE.BORN TO LEAD SHOULD WIN THIS FROM SURAJ. ALSO FIREFOOT HAS THE BEST JOCKEY ON IT, BUT IT SEEMS TO BE DIFFICULT FOR IT TO WIN HERE.
5)XIAMEN, STELLER AFFAIR, EKOFISK AND MARMARIS COMRE INTO THE RECKONING IN THIS VERY COMPETITIVE RACE. PICKING A WINNER COULD BE DIFIICULT AS WELL AS LUCRATIVE HERE. MY PICK XIAMEN TO BEAT STELLER AFFAIR HERE.
6)NOBLE REPLICA, HITZ, CRESPO AND INTIMACY CAN WIN HERE. LEAVE THIS ONE ALONE AS I CANNOT POINT OUT THE WINNER HERE. ALL I CAN SAY HERE IS THAT HITZ SHOULD PLACE HERE.
7)OF THE HORSES THAT HAVE RUN FIRE VAULT WILL BEAT THEM ALL BY ATLEAST 5 LENGTHS.I HAVE NO INPUTS ON THE FIRST TIMERS HERE.AND VERY HONESTLY I DO NOT KNOW HOW TO READ THEIR TRACK DATA. THAT IS WHY YOU WILL NEVER SEE ME TIPPING OR DISCUSSING FIRST TIMERS. AS FAR AS I AM CONCERNED ALL OF YOU SHOULD EAT, ON MONEY FIRST TIMERS RELIGIOUSLY, BECAUSE IN THE LONG RUN I AM 100% SURE YOU WILL END UP PLUS.
8)SCHUBERT AND ENGLEHART SHOULD BE THE ONES THAT SHOULD BE CONCERNED IN THE FINISH HERE. LAGAD IS UPTO TRICKS HERE, I THINK, BY PUTTING THE BETTER JOCKEY ON THE LESSER ANIMAL OF THE TWO.MY SELECTION IS ENGLEHART TO BEAT SCHUBERT.
9)SWEEPING SUCCESS AGAIN NAAH. I AM NOW PRETTY SICK OF THIS ANIMAL ALL OVER THE PLACE. IT IS BEST ON THE NUMBERS, BUT 400 METRES MORE AND THE HEAT WILL PLAY HELL IN HER LIFE. I EXPECT ARABIAN KNIGHT TO DO WELL HERE AND WIN THIS ONE FROM NOBLE PRINCE.
10)GOLDEN SYMBOL WILL BEAT THE ANIMALS WHO HAVE RUN PREVIOUSLY.CRESCENDO SHOULD COME SECOND BEHIND GOLDEN SYMBOL. ON THE FIRST TIMERS I HAVE NO COMMENTS.
11)BY THE TIME THIS RACE IS GOING TO BE RUN, I THINK IT WILL BE TIME TO START THE DRINKS. SO DO EXACTLY THAT BECAUSE THIS ONE IS THE MOST COMPETITIVE RACE IN THE DAY. CANNOT DECIDE WEATHER THIS IS MORE LOUSY OR THE 3RD RACE IS MORE. BETTER TO LEAVE THIS ONE BE AS THE FOLLOWING HORSES CAN WIN. CATALUNYA, TOMMY CARMICHAEL,TOP ACTION, KALPAVRUKSHA, BLACK DHALIA AND MORPHEUS. CATALUNYA SHOULD PLACE HERE. AND FOR JACKPOT SEEKERS PLEASE PUT ALL 10 ANIMALS IN THIS LEG.
TODAYS SPECIAL: - EAT, DRINK AND MAKE MERRY RATHER THAN TRYING TO MAKE MONEY ON THIS ILLOGICAL DAY OF RACING.
GOOD LUCK.
RB.

SELECTIONS FOR BANGLORE 29 MAR

HI ALL,
HERE IS WHAT I THINK.
1) AHIRA SHOULD WIN THIS IF A FIRST TIMER DOES NOT WIN IT.AND I WILL ADD, AHIRA WILL PLACE, FOR SURE.MINT WILL FOLLOW HERE.
2) STAR NEWS, DAWSONS CREEK, DRAUPADI AND SPREAD A SMILE SHOULD BE CONCERNED HERE.I LIKE STAR NEWS AND DRAUPADI IN PLACE HERE.REST IT COULD BE ANYONES RACE, FROM THE ABOVE FOUR.
3) BAD RACE THIS ONE WITH DIAMOND SHOWER, ENFORCER, BORN BEAUTY HAVING A CHANCE TO WIN THIS.I WOULD PLAY DIAMOND SHOWER IN PLACE IF I HAD TO, AT GUN POINT.
4) CAPRIOSKA SHOULD WIN THIS BY 3 LENGTHS FROM GENTLE KNIGHT.THE ONES LIKELY TO FOLLOW THIS DUO ARE CARTWHEEL AND MUSIC FOREVER.
5) FLEETING ARROW AND ARCHIPENKO ARE SAFE AS A JODI. NO OTHER HORSE CAN WIN THIS.MY CHOICE IS FLEETING ARROW TO BEAT THE MUCH THOUGHT OF ARCHIPENKO.M(ISCHEVIOUS).NARREDU IS A EYE WASH ON RIMPUCHE AND I HOPE THE BYRAMJI FATHER SON DON’T GET KINKY IDEAS. FOR RAMU FOLLOWERS HIS BEST ANIMAL HERE IS SCENIC MELODY.
6) LOGANS RUN SHOULD BEAT FLAMING LAMBOGIN HERE.IF OLD FORM (JUNE AND JULY LAST YEAR) IS ANYTHING TO GO BY THEN DANCING HIGHNESS COMES OUT GOOD.NET NET LOGUNS RUN SHOULD WIN THIS.LIONHEART MAY GET WINGS HERE, SO KEEP A WATCH OUT FOR HIM.
7) ECUADOR AND STAR BLUE THE JODI IS SAFE.I GUESS THE BETTER JOCKEY WILL PREVAIL, THOUGH ON NUMBERS STAR BLUE IS COMING OUT BETTER.MISTER TROOPER MAY FIND PLACE HERE.
8) BASTIAN BAY, ACE ACT AND LUCKYNUMBERSLEVIN ARE THE ONES WE HAVE TO CONSIDER HERE.I WOULD GO WITH BASTIAN BAY HERE TO BEAT ACE ACT.
9) BUCK PASSER JUNIOR, FULL STEELE AND CLASSIC MOVEMENTS ARE THE ONES TO CONSIDER HERE.CLASSIC MOVEMENTS IN PLACE IS THE BET HERE.
GOOD LUCK.

Season ending Picks

The Bangalore Racing Winter season comes to a close on saturday.Atleast 3 favorites can be expected to oblige today unlike Friday where almost all races had rank outsiders dominating the show.

My choices are as follows ;


1.Going by the recent track works , Sheza Star , Money in the Bank , You are Wonderful and Ahira come into contention.

Since the Jockey plays a MAJOR role in the sucess of any Horse ( difference was noticed today with the Substitue Jockeys failing miserably ) I would go with Sheza Star only if APPU is available.

Money In the Bank may provide Padmanabhan some breather after offering Several DUDS over the past ONE Month.

Asiatic Boy's pedigree is nothing great and hence better to skip.

You re Wonderful can be a Season ending GAMBLE.

Keep an Eye on AHIRA which has competed with quality horses in the past and is also well bred.


2.VB race meant for the Horses with the least merit.So lets not waste time on the merits and de merits of the contenders.

Astonical and Orange Orchard can be considered for betting .

Spread a Smile will be the favorite and Can oblige considering the not so impressive opposition.


3.Appertain , Diamond Shower and Trafalgar Square are my choices.

The first named is tracking well but being the debut run it is better to avoid a Winning bet.



4.Cart Wheel has been consistent through out the season but a bit unlucky .Lets hope he is able to turn the tables on his adverseries this time around.

Gentle Knight obviously will garner much support but may play bridesmaid.

Perfect Analysis : Owner is sponsoring the main event for the day.So some consolotion can be offered by fellow professionals.

Caprioska : was a expensive failure at Hyderabad. Hype or Genuine class will be decided. Place seems certain and the chances of Winning is not bright.



5.Most open race of the day.

Fleeting Arrow : Ran a good 5 th in the PBM.Has had 2 impressive Wins to his credit in bangalore.Is a live threat.

Archipenko : Lot of Hype based on the previous Victory .But if one were to judge the quality of opposition on that occassion , the conclusion is that it is very difficult for this Horse to WIN.

Rare and Precious : Good Luck.Offer stake money and take it back ??? Seems doubtful.Besides TSJ has turned out to be the worst rider seen in banglore Winter season.

Rimpuche : 2 Good runs and One was against some i9mpressive horses.Distance may prove to be a stumbling block as 1200 would be the ideal distance.Upsets do happen and Mallesh is capable of springing a surprise.

Grand Madame : Best bred in the field but racing too soon and that too after beating some not very good horses.But as always MAM / Prakash Combination would be in the odds and if it is above 5 to 1 worth a WIN / SHp Bet.

Scenic Melody : Ignore the last run.Must have the better of Rimpuche on Saturday.

Hill of Grace : Can repeat.Turn of foot in last outing was impressive but Rajendra was in full flow.Not sure if D.Grant can show the same vigour.


6.Dancing Highness for Each way and Logans Run for PLACE.

Seems a very tricky race.Except for horses 1/5/9/11 , the rest have a chance.


7.Briannsta : Each way and Star Blue Place. Ecuador has been pretty consistent but the change of jockey may not lead to a Win.


8.Milford : place seems a certainity.

As far as Winners are concerned , Callista , Lucky Number Slevin , Ace Act do
have a chance.Based on the odds at race time , Lucky number slevin can be considered for WIN or each way.

9.Nice way to end the season with a VB race .

Classic Movements and Queen of Speed can Aspire to Win ,Light up the Wallets , of the Punters with some mega BUCKs and Live up to the Standards set usually at the end of the season , With memories of the Good Times though No Record Time would be set in this Starry race meant FULLY and only for the lowest rated Horses .


Good day ,

SELECTION FOR BANGLORE 28 MAR.

HI ALL,
HERE ARE THE COMMENTS FOR THE DAY.

1)THIS RACE SHOULD BE KEENLY FOUGHT BY DIVINE DEW AND BEAUTY.
CHINAB SHOULD FILL THE FRAME.
BEAUTY IN PLACE IS IN MY OPINION A GOOD BET.

2)WE SHOULD CONSIDER PRETTY N FAST, VALID BID AND ROAL LIASON FOR FINDING THE WINNER HERE.
PRETTY HAS A POSITIVE JOCKEY CHANGE AND SHOULD WIN THIS FROM VALID BID.
PRETTY N FAST PLACE SEEMS TO BE A CERTAINTY.

3)LUMINOUS GOLD SHOULD COME HOME ALONE IN THIS ONE UNLESS THERE IS SOME VERY GOOD FIRST TIMER HERE.
LUCKY MASCOT SHOULD FOLLOW IT HOME FROM FAR BEHIND.

4)ANOOSHEEK IS THE ONE TO RECKON WITH HERE. MANTHARA WHO IS IMPROVING SHOULD ALSO DO WELL HERE.
I DO NOT LIKE THE JOCKEY ON GOOD COMPANION, WHICH HAS A CHANCE HERE.

5)OLIVIA VALERE, STRONG MINDED AND INDIA SHINING SHOULD BE CONCERNED AT THE FINISH HERE.
MY SELECTION HERE IS OLIVIA VALERE TO BEAT STRONG MINDED.
RIVER ISLAND SHOULD AT BEST PLACE AT VERY LUCRATIVE ODDS HERE, BUT THE JOCKEY IS USELESS.

6)JERSEY POWER, ALCHESAYE AND SURPRISE PACKAGE SHOULD BE FIGHTING THIS ONE.
JERSEY POWER SHOULD WIN THIS AND ANY OF THE OTHER TWO CAN FOLLOW IN SECOND PLACE.
JERSEY POWER IN PLACE SEEMS A DECENT BET.

7)THE MOST COMPETITIVE RACE OF THE DAY IS THIS ONE. CANNOT LOCATE A CLEAR CUT POINTER TO SPOT THE WINNER.
THERE ARE FIVE RUNNERS HERE THAT YOU CAN SELECT THE WINNER FROM. HERE THEY ARE.
ARTIC BLAST, HAWAIIAN SUNRISE, TURBO BABE, GUN FIRE AND DARKTAN ARE THE FIVE.
MY VERY RELUCTANT CHOICE WOULD BE TURBO BABE TO BEAT ARTIC BLAST AND DARKTAN.
KEEP AWAY FROM THIS RACE.

8)ROYAL HERO SHOULD WIN THIS ONE FROM DOCK OF BAY.
SMART AND SPECIAL HAS KHURSHAD ALAM RIDING IT, AND I DON’T KNOW WHAT SORT OF JOCKEY HE IS.
SMART SHOULD PLACE HERE IF THEY TRY IT AND CAN MAYBE UPSET IF THE RIDER IS ANY GOOD.

GOOD LUCK TO YOU ALL.

Friday Betting Options

Being the penultimate day of the Winter season , not many favorites are expected to oblige on Friday.These are my choices for the day ;


1.Two to Tango and Da Bomb for Place depending on the odds.
Chinab has some decent track work offlate and considering the positive shift in Jockey may do well.


2.Royal Liason , Word to Word and Pretty n fast are the Prime contenders in this class Vb race.


3.Very competitive race with many Horses in with a chance to score.]

Lucky Mascot , Musical Paradise , Dakini , Enchanting Beauty and Repique can be IGNORED.

Desert Rule , Luminious Gold , Sheer Gold and Gods WILL are expected to do well.


4.Illusive Girl , Manthara and Anoosheek are tracking well.The First named is a good each way bet.

Simply Dangerous has the capability to UPSET.



5.Lush Foliage WILL place.

Easy and Colonel Duff should also be in the limelight.

River Island has been a miserable failure all through the season and gets a chance to redeem herself at the bottom of the scales.


6.Bold Reply after the controvesial victory in Mysore is ready to Strike.Echoes of Light has already proved its worth in the higher class and based on that comparison , Bold Reply is a good bet.

Jersey Power though not in this class may place due to the low handicap.Ever so clever is looking to be SURE shot for place.

7.BAD race. Kaliyug Raja WILL place.Turbo Babe has a good chance for WIN.


8.Give me the Money , Maahi Ve and Worth a Million.Take your pick based on the race time odds.

Replenish and Royal hero are both for the BOOKIES.


Good day,

SHYAM

Special Day Choices

1.Except for MUBARASS , rest of the runners all have a chance to score.

The youngster Gusti Egli is showing out in the tracks but is carrying 61 kgs.May be difficult but not impossible as most of the other runners have no form to go by.

Operal Royale and Solsjaker are from small time trainers and it would be advisable to play one of these three Horses based on the race time odds.

Premier Diva lost out last time when the gamble on Tehrani came through.So keep an eye.



2.I would go with Lovely Feelings and Ganador in this bunch of non performers.

The first named has a victory this season and hence the prefered choice.

Ganador looks good for a place bet.



3.Insite Soul ,Blue Blaze , Fighting Fantsasy and Fearless Negotiator are the contenders.

The owners of Blue Blaze have a entries in both Divisions of the Fair Ray Plate and hence may try for a Double.

In case the odds are not attractive enough , skip the bet and play INSITE SOUL which is a place certainity.


4.Dynamic Cat . Has had a hatrick . May repeat.But it would be worthwhile to look at other options since this is a class 2 race and this Horse has come up from Class IV.

Star o War/ Call to Arms can be considered based on ace time odds for WIN or each way as the case may be.



5.Babe in the Woods Should WIN today.

Flaming Arrow has impressive bloodlines but a Bad Jockey.Definitely worth a Place bet.

Forever Amber can also place.



6.Seems an open race with Axiology , Beau Monde , Dance Maestro and Mickey Mantle all with a chance to score.


7.Charlie Parker and Multi Cultural will be there at the finish.



Good day,

Shyam

SELECTIONS FOR MUMBAI 27 MAR.

HI ALL,
WHAT A SPECIAL DAY IT IS OF RACING. MUST SAY VERY SPECIAL. SEEMS TO ME THAT HALF THE RACES ARE GOING TO BE WON BY SPECIAL ANIMALS.
ANYWAYS HERE GOES.
1) SPARROW HAWK AND KINGS TROOP COME INTO THE RECKONING IN THIS RACE.VERY LOUSY AND COMPETITIVE RACE THIS IS, WHERE SPARROW HAWK SHOULD DO WELL. BUT I REPEAT THIS IS A VERY COMPETITIVE RACE.HENCE KEEP AWAY FROM THIS ONE.
2) FIREY FUTURE SHOULD DO WELL IN THIS PATHETIC RACE. THE (TOP WEIGHTED) RIGHT MAN MAY RUN A DECENT RACE BUT IT WOULD BE CRIMINAL. 62 KGS IN 38 DEG IS A NO NO. ALSO COMES INTO THE RECKONING IS SHAKTIMAN. LOVELY FEELINGS WILL SPROUT WINGS ON BASIS ITS PUNE FORM.KEEP AWAY FROM THIS RACE TOO.
3) OF ALL THE HORSES WHO AVE RUN IN THE PAST BLUE BLAZE I FIND IS THE BEST. POMME DE TERRE HAS BEEN SYSTEMATICALLY AND RELIGIOUSLY BEEN RUNNING RACES ONE WORSE THAN THE OTHER. I THINK THESE TWO SHOULD BE CONCERNED IN THE FINISH. BECAUSE I WOULD NOT FIND IT SURPRISING IF N(AUGHTY). LAGAD HAS BEEN HIDING POMME'S PERFORMANCE FROM AFTER THE 1ST RUN. WHICH WAS ITS BEST RUN SO FAR. NO INPUTS ON THE FIRST TIMERS HERE.
4) CALL TO ARMS AND STAR O WAR SHOULD FIGHT THIS ONE STRAIGHT. THEY HAVE BOTH RUN TOGETHER ON MARCH 1ST LAST YEAR WHERE STAR O WAR BEAT CALL TO ARMS. THAT DAY CALL TO ARMS WAS A NON JOBBER WITH R(ICKSHAW CHALAK). SHELAR ON IT AND STAR O WAR HAD M(EANINGLESS).KHARADI.MY SELECTION CALL TO ARMS TO STAR O WAR, CAUSE THIS TIME THEY MIGHT JOB WITH KISHORE KADAM. DYNAMIC CAT CAN WIN, IF THE RACE IS MADE UP BY H(ONOURABLE). MEHTA, NOT OTHERWISE. THE THIRD HORSE HERE IS THREE OF ARTS.
5) THIS ONE SHOULD BE FOUGHT BY BABESINTHEWOODS AND ELEMENTO STYLE.DILEMA HERE IS THE VERY KINKY AND UNLUCKY, I(NSOLENT). A(STONISHING).SAIT, AND THE OVER RACED ELEMTO STYLE. BUT I THINK THAT C(HALAAK).RAJENDRA SHOULD WIN THIS IN STYLE FOR THE JINXY MAN. IN FACT THE CONNECTION ON BLUE BLAZE AND BABESINTHEWOODS ARE THE SAME, SO A DOUBLE MIGHT BE IN THE OFFING. ALSO TO POINT OUT THAT BOTH ARE BEING RIDDEN BY C(HALAAK).RAJENDRA.
6) ATHENA, DANCE MAESTRO AND MICKEY MANTLE COME INTO THE RECKONING HERE. THEY COME PRETTY CLOSE ON THE NUMBERS, BUT SELECTION HERE IS AS FOLLOWS. ATHENA TO BEAT DANCE MAESTRO. ATHENA IN PLACE IS A CERTAINTY.
7) ST MORITZ IS REGAINING FORM AND SHOULD DO WELL TODAY.AND SO SHOULD CHARLIE PARKER. T(ONGUE). S(TRAP). JODHA IS RIDING FOR RAMU AND NOT FOR S(ECRET). S(ERVICE). SHAH. GOLDEN KEY MIGHT SPROUT WINGS HERE……PROVIDED MULTICULTURAL IS A NON JOBBER. HISHAM COMES PRETTY DECENT, BUT IGNORE CAUSE, WITH VIKRAM WALKAR ON TOP, THE HORSES BECOME WALKARS INSTEAD OF RUNNERS.
GOOD LUCK TO YOU ALL.
R.B.

HAPPY EASTER

Race 1
POLAR GLOW has good credentials and might win from URBAN WARRIOR.

Race 2
Note the change in Jockey from S.S.Rathore to Samuel Fargeat on FOCUS. Should win from FLYING SPIRIT & WILD TORRONAADO.

A minimum of 5 horses will vie for each other.GATRAVAT, FREDERICIA, SPIRITUAL FLAME, DOMINATRIX & PRINCE LOCHINVA
.

Race 4
This race is confined to a pair of runners. PREMIER QUEEN & BLACK HUSSAR.

Race 6
A triangular contest between MAZAN, MISTER FIXIT & RING BEARER.

Race 7
PHI: My day’s best. She is the one who MUST WIN in this mediocre set.

All the best.

TODAYS CHANCES

SELECTIONS FOR MUMBAI 23 MAR

HI ALL,
HERE ARE MY SELECTIONS FOR THIS VERY AVERAGE DAY OF RACING.

1)FOUR HORSES AND ALL FOUR CAN WIN. THE MOST COMPETITIVE RACE I HAVE SEEN THIS SEASON.I WOULD TAKE A SMALL CHANCE WITH RAGE OF ANGELS. TO BEAT BENEFICA.
2)THE HORSES THAT WILL BE CONCERNED HERE ARE FIRECRACKER, QUAND MEME AND FOCUS.NARENDRA LAGAD IS GOING THE RAMU WAY AND ENTERING FOUR HORSES IN A RACE.FIRECRACKER SHOULD BE ABLE TO BEAT FOCUS HERE AS HORSES IMPROVE OVER THEIR FIRST RUNS.
3)PRINCE LOCHINVA, GATRAVAT, BORN DESTINY ARE THE ONES TO CONSIDER HERE IN THIS EXTREMELY CONFUSING RACE.I CAN ONLY SAY ONE THING HERE, THAT PRINCE LOCHNIVA WILL PLACE FOR SURE.
4)FULL THROTTLE, PREMIER QUEEN AND BLACK HUSSAR SHOULD BE CONSIDERED HERE FOR FINDING THE WINNER.MY TAKE FULL THROTTLE TO BLACK HUSSAR. IN FACT BLACK HUSSAR SHOULD BE TREATED AS A PLACE BET.
5)RY COMPETITIVE RACE THIS ONE IS. FIVE HORSES HAVE A CHANCE HERE.DIVINE, ALGORITHMS, COLOURFUL LADY AND CYCLADES COME INTO THE RECKONING.DIFFICULT PICKING A WINNER HERE. I LIKE DIVINE TO BEAT ALGORITHMS AND COLOURFUL LADY.
6)MAZAN AND RING BEARER SHOULD BE FIGHTING THIS STRAIGHT.I DON’T UNDERSTAND FAISAL ABBAS' CHOICE OF K P G APPU ON TEARAWAY THOUGH.BUT I GUESS SAMUEL FARGEAT IS IN GOOD FORM RECENTLY. OTHER WISE APPU IS A BETTER JOCKEY ANYDAY.
7)PHI SHOULD WIN THIS ONE EASILY FROM GREY STORM.DISCOVER WITH THAT IGNORANT F IRANI MIGHT PLACE.

GOOD LUCK,
R.B.

Tirol Million race day

These are my choices for the day ;

1.Urban Warrior is same class Winner where as Rage of Angels and Polar Glow are class Vb Winners, but are better placed on handicap.

Rage of Angels has been ridden by Anil Baandal this season and though Dasarath Singhis a better rider I would avoid Rage of Angels and also Benfica.

Urban Warrior and Polar Glow get my Nod and one of them can be finalised based on the race time odds.



2.Focus , Wild Torronaado and Arks Angel are the Three Horses which are in with a chance.

Wild Torronaado can be a good each way bet and Arks Angel can Place.



3.Spiritual Flame ,Prince Lochinava, Gatravat.

Others can be ignored based on the relative Jockey merit and also due to the poor performance of the Horses till date.
On handicap Prince Lochinava seems a good each way bet.


4.Race seems to be set for Vinay Lagad to open his account.
As can be expected from these trainers , Ignore the Fancied Horse and Bet on the other.By that Logic Chief Warrior should be backed.
One can look for Simply Perfect for that Upset.



5.Colorful Lady , La Joie De Vie , Touch of Land , Algorithms.

race looks wide open.I expect atleast 2 of these 4 horses to be in the top 4.

Divine and Romantic Impact are both fancied , but not worth a WINNING Bet.


6.Mister Fixit can Run away with the Race .
Supreme Sword / Dreamer : One may place.
Mazan can only place.


7.Race of the season with so Horses rated less than 10.

Shailesh may try to Win before serving the long suspension from races.

Varun and Te Quiero may try to upset.


On the whole a listless day except for the main event for the day which seems a bit competitive.


Narendra / Vinay Lagad are likely to be in the news along with Todywala.

Bangalore Race selections



First Race :

Radiant Act , Man United and Spicy Star are the contenders.

Man United has the least chance to score and hence a bet the other Two can be considered based on the prevailing odds.

Hollyoaks is fashionably bred and may place.



Second Race :

Silver Paris , Girl Next door , Consort King .

Spread a Smile looks very very diffcult inspite of the merit of the jockey.

Silver Paris : Jockey has poor record in bangalore , But can Win if taken on a start to finish mission due to low weight.

Consort King is tracking well and should be considered for Place.



Third Race :

AELENIA , Lush Foliage , Adorabella .

First named gets the nod based on its earlier convincing Victory.But the Filly is coming to the tracks after 2 months and the Top weight might turn out to be spoilsport.

Lush Foliage : WIll place for Sure.

Adorabella : Start to Finsh specialist.May place.

Ciboney is the only other horse which can come into contention as Milagro and Powerful dreams have practically no chance.



Fourth Race :

Royal Ambassador , Our Little Savage ,Lion heart , Talk of the devil.

@ the odds offered , Royal Ambassador is not worth a bet though it is facing weak opposition.

Talk of the Devil has the best credentials and always does well with strong saddle support .Not sure if the allowance Jockey can handle the horse to its capability.

Lion Heart : Purely on Class should place.

Our Little Savage : Keep an EYE.



Fifth race :

Super Sonic : Horse has the class and the opposition seems very weak but Krishnan at top weight is not worth bet at around .70 or .80.

Cindy Girl : WILL PLACE.

Royal hero : Starting problem case. May win also but due to its gate manners I would Avoid.

Retro Queen : Each way ON.



Sixth Race :

Spark of Isis , Royal Amber , Valiant Bay and Serenity Now .

Seems an open race and based on the odds at race time , One among the First Three mentioned horses can be considered for WIN as Race is restricted to these 4 Horses.

Royal Amber and Valiant Bay are tracking extremely well , but Spark of ISIS has run with better Horses.

Serenity now may place.

Mind Me : looks difficult for place ALSO.



Seventh Race :

Illusive Girl : Will place for sure.So each way bet.

Star Blue / Ecuador : Good chance based on previous run.But Only one among these TWO can place.

Rain man : Long shot for place.

IMAGINE.................HAPPY HOLI GOOD PEOPLE.
P.S. JUST FOR YOUR INFORMATION, TODAY IS INTERNATIONAL WATER CONSERVASION DAY (HEHEHEHE FREAKS).

HERE ARE MY CHOICES FOR TODAY.

1)SPICY STAR,RADIANT ACT AND MAN UNITED SHOULD BE CONCERNED HERE FOR THE TOP SPOT. I LIKE SPICY STAR HERE, BUT AM AMAZED AT THE JOCKEY CHOICE. MAYBE DONE FOR GETTING BETTER ODDS.RADIANT ACT WILL IMPROVE AND SHOULD DO BETTER THAN MAN UNITED, FOR MOONDI PLAYERS.

2)THE HORSES THAT COME INTO CONTENTION HERE ARE SPREAD A SMILE,SILVER PARIS AND ZANGI. SPREAD A SMILE SHOULD WIN THIS ONE PRETTY EASILY. TRY A SMALL BET ON SILVER PARIS FOR PLACE AT LONG ODDS, CAUSE IT HAS VERY GOOD OLD FORM AND ITS LAST RUN SUGGESTIVE.

3)I DO NOT KNOW WHAT SORT OF RIDER THIS S MUBARAK IS, BECAUSE EXCELLENT SPEED HAS THE BEST CHANCE TO WIN. CIBONEY AND ADORABELLA COME IN NEXT WITH A CHANCE. TOUGH RACE THOUGH.MY SELECTION CIBONEY TO EXCELLENT SPEED. EXCELLENT SPEED SOULD MINIMUM PLACE.

4)THIS IS A VERY TRICKY RACE WHERE 5 HORSES HAVE A GOOD CHANCE. LIONHEART, ROYAL AMBASSADOR AND DARE DON COME INTO CONSIDERATION HERE. MY SELECTION IS LIONHEART TO ROYAL AMBASSADOR.

5)ROYAL HERO, CINDY GIRL AND ACT SMART COME INTO THE RECKONING HERE. ROYAL HERO SHOULD WIN THIS ONE FROM ACT SMART.CINDY GIRL IS RIDDEN BY A RIDICULOUS JOCKEY HENCE DISCOUNTED.

6)SPARK OF ISIS AND MIND ME ARE THE TWO ANIMALS HERE, BEYOND WHOM I CANNOT SEE. SPARK OF ISIS SHOULD WIN THIS EASILY FROM MIND ME. BOTH THESE ANIMALS WILL PLACE FOR SURE.

7)THE HORSES THAT COME INTO THE RECKONING HERE ARE KIOKO, STAR BLUEAND ECUDOR.ECUDOR SHOULD WIN AND KIOKO WILL FOLLOW.KIOKO IF ON JOB IS A PLACE CERTAINTY.

HAVE A WONDERFUL DAY AND GOOD LUCK TO YOU ALL.

SELECTIONS FOR BANGLORE 21 MAR

HI ALL,
HOLI HAI......HAPPY HOLI TO ALL.MAY ALL THE COLOURS OF LIFE, FOR YOU ALL,BE AS COLOURFUL AS CAN BE.
HERE ARE MY COMMENTS ON THE RAES TODAY.

1)THIS RACE IS STRICTLY BETWEEN DIFFERENT OPINION AND SUPER SPEAR.I DO NOT LIKE LUNAR LUST, AND DARASHAH DECIDES TO CHANGE THE SHOES TO STEEL OF DAZZLING LIGHT. OTHERWISE I WOULD RECKON IT IN CONTENTION ON THE BASIS OF ITS DECEMBER RUN. MY CHOICE IS DIFFERENT OPINION TO SUPER SPEAR.
2)MYSTIC DANCER SHOULD WIN THIS ONE FROM KAJURAHO.SPARK OF CLASS WILL HAVE TO IMPROVE ONE HELL OF A LOT TO WIN THIS RACE. PINNAKINI HAS DONE NOTHING SO FAR AND IS LIKELY TO DO SO AGAIN.KAJURAHO IN PLACE IS A GOOD THING.
3)THE HORSES THAT WILL BE CONCERNED HERE ARE MYSTIC STAR, LIGHTNIN BLUES AND SHISHAM. MY CHOICE IS MYSTIC STAR TO LIGHTNIN BLUES.SANGINI MIGHT JUST ALSO WAKE UP TODAY TO FILL THE FRAME.
4)REBELLIOUS, ASIATICUS, INDY ROYAL AND ATTAIN SHOULD BE IN THE FIGHTING.ASIATICUS SHOULD PLACE IN THIS SET. DON’T LIKE THE JOCKEY CHOICE OTHERWISE IT COULD AS WELL WIN.MY CHOICE REBELLIOUS TO INDI ROYAL TO ASIATICUS FOLLOWED BY ATTAIN.GHATALA WILL BE WRONG IF HE GOES WITH MUCHO RATHER THAN INDI ROYAL.
5)MY WINNING CHARM, PRINCESS EMILY ARE THE TWO HORSES I CAN FIND HERE.MY WINNING CHARM SHOULD WIN THIS AND PRINCESS EMILY SHOULD PLACE HERE.
6)THE ANIMALS THAT COME INTO THE RECKONING HERE ARE JEDI KNIGHT, CROMPTON STAR AND RAPIDO GONZALES. CROMPTON STAR SHOULD WIN THIS EVENT FROM RAPIDO GONZALES AND JEDI KNIGHT.JEDI KNIGHT PLACE SHOULD BE A DECENT BET AT LONGER ODDS.
7)SUPER WOMAN COMES OUT TO BE THE BEST. MY FRIEND PAUL AND BEE THE STAR COME OUT NEXT BEST.MY CHOICE IS SUPER WOMAN TO BEE THE STAR. TAKE A SMALL CHANCE ON MY FRIEND PAUL IN PLACE.ROYAL ALCHEMIST I RUNNING AFTER AGES, SO I WOULD LEAVE IT ALONE. ON OLD NUMBERS IT IS TOO GOOD.AS USUAL NITYANAND DOES NOT KNOW WHEN TO JOB (IF HE IS A JOBBER, GIVEN THE CHOICE OF JOCKEY).
ALL IN ALL SEEMS A DECENT DAY FOR PUNTING.
ALL THE BEST.
RB.
P.S. OUR PARSI FREINDS, HAVE A HAPPY NEW YEAR, AS IN NAVROZE MUBARAK.

Choices for the Festive Day


These are my choices.


First race :

Lunar Lust and Another Destiny will fight for the Top spot.Sayonara Might place.


Second Race :

Mystic Dancer has the best credentials to score.Kajuraho and Pinaakini should follow the Winner.Spark of Class might find it difficult in this field.


Third Race :


Lightnin Blues should be able to pull it off , only if there is level break from the gates.

Mystic Star has only a small chance for WIN.

Shisham has been quiet consistent and should be in the Top three ahead of Lucky Gold Star.


Fourth Race :


Einstein and Attain appeal to me based on thier previous run.Both of them should place by default though
Appu's riding skills on Top weight Horses is suspect.

Mucho is for the Bookies.

Rebellious has the credentials to Upset.


Fifth Race :

Bad Race with all small time trainers ready for a gamble.

GO GO BOY will place.That is certain.



Sixth Race :

Suave has been very consitent this season and has been ridden by some mediocre riders recently.Though on Top handicap , the Horse is capable of striking since the Odds are expected to be lucrative.

Compton Star : If the Intention is to WIN a allowance Jockey would have been offered the ride.WIth APPU going thro a Bad patch , AVOID even Place bet.

Serious Warrior : May place due to handicap and the riding skills of the Jockey.

Jedi Knight : Looks difficult as the Horse has just come from Vb class this season.


Seventh Race :

Sunny's Symphony is my Choice , though the merit of the jockey can be debateable.

Need of the Hour is the PLACE certainity of the day.

My Friend Paul / Super Woman are the contenders for the Third Spot.

Bee the star is not going to fing the going easy and hence avoid even for PLACE.


Good day,Shyam

SELECTIONS FOR MUMBAI 20 MARCH

HI ALL,
EAT DRINK AND MAKE MERRY TODAY, AS HOLI APPROACHES.
RACING IS VERY COMPETITIVE TODAY AND HENCE TAKE IT EASY.

ONE CAN SAFELY EAT THE BOSS HERE, BECAUSE DAKU HAS PROBABLY EATEN IT TILL HE BURSTS. HAS NO CHANCE ACCORDING TO ME. COCAINE, KING OF THE RING AND PHI COME INTO THE RECKONING. ARABIAN HERO HAS SHOE CHANGE FROM ALUMINIUM TO STEEL, SO I WOULD DISCOUNT IT. MY TAKE IS KING OF THE RING TO COCAINE. PHI SHOULD RUN A GOOD RACE HERE ALSO. ALL IN ALL AVOID THIS RACE.

THE UNLUCKY IMTIAZ SAIT HAS A VERY GOOD CHANCE TO SCORE HERE. GOD AND HE HIMSELF KNOWS HIS INTENTIONS. ON PUNE NUMBERS RADIATING COMES IN BETTER, BUT I STILL THINK PREMIER PANACHE WILL FIGHT. MY TAKE ON THIS RACE IS PREMIER PANACHE TO RADIATING TO MAVERICK. PREMIER PANACHE IS RECOMMENDED AS A VERY SAFE PLACE BET HERE. THIS ATTENTION SEEKER HAS RAJENDRA ON IT AND HAS BEEN HIDDEN FOR THE LAST TWO YEARS.

KISHORE KADAM CAN DO IT HERE WITH REALLY ROMANTIC, AT THIS FLY WEIGHT.
ALSO I WONDER WHAT ANTIA IS PLANNING WITH BEYOND THERAPY WITH RIYAZ ON TOP. I DO NOT LIKE SPICA AND MING HERE. MY TAKE REALLY ROMANTIC TO BEYOND THEREPY. REALY ROMANTIC SHOULD PLACE HERE BY DEFAULT AND HENCE IS RECOMMENDED TO BET FOR PLACE.

FLASHING FLAME SHOULD WIN THIS EASILY FROM EARL OF WARWICK.

VERY CONFUSING RACE WITH 4 FIRST TIMERS AND 6 WHO HAVE ALREADY RUN.
THE HORSES THAT HAVE RUN ARE ALL ONE LOUSIER THAN THE OTHER. NEVER THE LESS OF THE ONES THAT HAVE RUN I LIKE DANCING GLORY AND RISING HERO.
I WOULD LEAVE THIS ONE ALONE BECAUSE A FIRST TIMER MAY AS WELL WIN HERE.
EAT RAMUS HORSE IN PLACE IF THAT’S POSSIBLE.

ANOTHER VERY BAD RACE WITH SOME CONFUSING POINTERS. ARABIAN POWER HAS A DECENT CHANCE, BUT THERE MUST BE SOMETHING WRONG WITH THE ANIMAL.
OTHERWISE WHY ELSE WOULD THE RICKSHAW DRIVER R SHELAR BE RIDING IT ????????? ETERNAL FLIGHT SHOULD PLACE HERE AND IN RWITC TOTE IT WOULD PAY EVEN IF IT CAME FOURTH. RECOMMENDED. MY TAKE ON THIS RACE IS KAI TO SOCARORO. EAT SPIRITUALL.

I THINK JHONNY BRAVO AND HOUSE PREFECT HAVE GOT SECRETLY MARRIED.
WHERE EVER THEY RUN THEY RUN TOGETHER. GOOD THEY DON’T HOLD HANDS.
BINEE SHOULD WIN THIS IF THE RICKSHAW DRIVERS BROTHER RIYAZ SHAIKH CAN DO JUSTICE TO THE ANIMAL. BAD RACE THOUGH.

GOOD LUCK WITH ALL THE DONKEYS.

DAYS BEST 4-1

BEST OF LUCK

GOOD BETS FOR THE DAY

ONE 7 PLACE
FOUR 1 WIN
FIVE 7 PLACE
SIX 7 WIN

Thursday Choices

My selections for some of the races are :

2 nd race :

Maverik and Attention Seeker are the Horses which are likely to dominate.

Radiating and Bonny Light have competed in the Upset race of the Season won by Precision and look difficult based on thier earlier performance and also on handicap .

3 rd Race :

Ming and Really Romantic : The manner of running of both these horses indicates that this Trip is ideally suited .Both of them should be there in the finish , picking the Winner can be made based on the odds at race time.

5 th race : I would go with Dancing Glory each way as it has had some some suggestive runs in the past.

Blade Runner and Blue mountain Both may be fancied but being the First run it would PAY to avoid both these Horses on their debut.Besides they have interlinked Owner / Trainer .All the more the reason to avoid.


Good bets for the day as per most of the Race Publications and Web Sites are -

Race # 4 : Horse # 3 - Da Vinci ; Black Cash / Au Panache .

Trained by M.K Jadhav and to be handled by Y.S.Srinath.

Likely Odds at race time : between 90 paisa to 1.20.The Small Field and good saddle support may see it through but my view is it is not WORTH a Bet at these ODDS.

Flashing Flame and Earl of Warwick are the worthy opponents who cant be ignored.


Race # 6 : Horse # 1 - Spirituall ; Black Cash / Rahy's Serenade.

Trained by Shroff and to be handled by Mallesh Narredu.

Likely Odds at race time : between 1.4 to 2 to 1.

Summit , Kai , Socaroro are the other contenders in this race. Hence at top weight and at slighly lower than expected ODDS not WORTH a Win Bet.

Good day ,

PUZZLERS !!!!! SOME GOOD ONES..

[1] IF YOU HAVE SEX WITH A PROSTITUTE AGAINST HER WILL, IS IT CONSIDERED RAPE OR SHOPLIFTING ?
[2] CAN YOU CRY UNDER WATER?
[3] HOW IMPORTANT DOES A PERSON HAVE TO BE BEFORE THEY ARE CONSIDERED ASSASSINATED INSTEAD OF JUST MURDERED?
[4] WHY DO YOU HAVE TO "PUT YOUR TWO CENTS IN"... BUT IT'S ONLY A "PENNY FOR YOUR THOUGHTS"? WHERE'S THAT EXTRA PENNY GOING TO?
[5] ONCE YOU'RE IN HEAVEN, DO YOU GET STUCK WEARING THE CLOTHES YOU WERE BURIED IN FOR ETERNITY?
[6] WHY DOES A ROUND PIZZA COME IN A SQUARE BOX?
[7] WHAT DISEASE DID CURED HAM, ACTUALLY HAVE?
[8] HOW IS IT THAT WE PUT MAN ON THE MOON BEFORE WE FIGURED OUT IT WOULD BE A GOOD IDEA TO PUT WHEELS ON LUGGAGE?
[9] WHY IS IT THAT PEOPLE SAY THEY "SLEPT LIKE A BABY" WHEN BABIES WAKE UP LIKE EVERY TWO HOURS?
[10] IF A DEAF PERSON HAS TO GO TO COURT, IS IT STILL CALLED A HEARING?
[11] WHY ARE YOU IN A MOVIE, BUT YOU'RE ON TV?
[12] WHY DO PEOPLE PAY TO GO UP TALL BUILDINGS AND THEN PUT MONEY IN BINOCULARS TO LOOK AT THINGS ON THE GROUND?
[13] WHY DO DOCTORS LEAVE THE ROOM WHILE YOU CHANGE? THEY'RE GOING TO SEE YOU NAKED ANYWAY.
[14] WHY IS "BRA" SINGULAR AND "PANTIES" PLURAL?
[15] WHY DO TOASTERS ALWAYS HAVE A SETTING, THAT BURNS THE TOAST TO A HORRIBLE CRISP, WHICH NO DECENT HUMAN BEING WOULD EAT?
[16] IF JIMMY CRACKS CORN AND NO ONE CARES, WHY IS THERE A STUPID SONG ABOUT HIM?
[17] CAN A HEARSE CARRYING A CORPSE DRIVE IN THE CARPOOL LANE ?
[18] IF THE PROFESSOR ON GILLIGAN'S ISLAND CAN MAKE A RADIO OUT OF A COCONUT, WHY CAN'T HE FIX A HOLE IN A BOAT?
[19] WHY DOES GOOFY STAND ERECT WHILE PLUTO REMAINS ON ALL FOURS? THEY'RE BOTH DOGS!
[20] IF WILE E. COYOTE HAD ENOUGH MONEY TO BUY ALL THAT ACME CRAP, WHY DIDN'T HE JUST BUY DINNER?
[21] IF CORN OIL IS MADE FROM CORN, AND VEGETABLE OIL IS MADE FROM VEGETABLES, WHAT IS BABY OIL MADE FROM?
[22] IF ELECTRICITY COMES FROM ELECTRONS, DOES MORALITY COME FROM MORONS?
[23] DO THE ALPHABET SONG AND TWINKLE, TWINKLE LITTLE STAR HAVE THE SAME TUNE?
[24] WHY DID YOU JUST TRY SINGING THE TWO SONGS ABOVE?
AND FINALLY THE LAST, BUT SURELY THE BEST..........
[25] WHY DO THEY CALL IT AN ASTEROID WHEN IT'S OUTSIDE THE HEMISPHERE, BUT CALL IT A HEMORRHOID WHEN IT'S IN YOUR BUTT? ? ?

7 RAGHUVANSH 52


1.(2)ARKTOUROS 2 .(7)RAGHUVANSH 3.(3)BLUE RAY 4.(6)JUVENTUS

STAR SCEPTRE WILL NOT WIN.THAT IS CERTAIN.RED ROMEO LOOKS VERY DIFFICULT.ARKTOUROS LOOKS THE BEST WITH THE BEST FINISHING TIME OF 11.5 SECS IN ITS RUN.THE SECOND BEST WAS RAGHUVANSH AND THEN BLUE RAY & RED ROMEO.THESE FOUR SHOULD BE IN THE FINAL RECKONING.THE MOST IMPROVED IS JUVENTUS WHICH CAN TROUBLE.FLAMING & HIGHLAND LOOK VERY DIFFICULT.SOUTHERN SUMMIT CAN PLACE.THIS MAY BE THE GIFT TO C ALFORD BEFORE THE SUSPENSION BEGINS

IF THE GAMBLE ON C ALFORD FAILS HE MAY WIN WITH THE FIRST TIME RUNNER ROMANTIC AGENDA WHICH OTHERWISE DOES NOT LOOK VERY GOOD,THIS IS AN AVOIDABLE RACE AND RECOMMEND FIELD FOR JP/ SJP HUNTERS.TRY A VERY SMALL BET ON GOLDEN SPURS( I KNOW R SHELAR IS THERE) IN PLACE & SHP.A PURELY AVOIDABLE RACE

THE DAY TODAY 16.3.2008

TODAY PESI SHOULD BE IN THE LIMELIGHT, FIRST FOR THE WRONG REASONS WHERE SANGOMA & ROCKEFELLER MAY LOOSE AND THEN FOR THE RIGHT REASONS FOR WINNING THROUGH SET ALIGHT, STELLAR & ARKTOUROS.IF YOU NOTICE ALL THE RIDERS HAVE AN INITIAL OF "C" FOR PESI TODAY.DOES IT MEAN HIS HORSES WILL FINISH THIRD? I DOUBT.

ALL THE THREE C RAJENDRA , C ALFORD AND OUR GREAT (FOR WHATEVER REASONS ) C RUZZAN SHOULD WIN ONE EACH.

RAJENDRA CAN HAVE A DOUBLE.AADESH MAY DO WELL FOR A CHANGE TODAY.DANIEL MAY REGRET HIS DECISION TO COME BACK.ONE LAGAD & ONE ALTAF HUSSAIN IS POSSIBLE.RIYAZ MAY GET ONE.M NARREDU MAY GET ONE RACE.

WISHING YOU ALL THE VERY BEST FOR THE DAY.HAVE A NICE DAY AND COME BACK HOME HAPPY.

SELECTIONS FOR MUMBAI 16 MARCH

HI ALL,
PESI SHROFF SHOULD BE IN THE LIME LIGHT TODAY.

SANGOMA AND TRIBAL WARRIOR SHOULD FIGHT THIS ONE STRAIGHT. CANNOT LOCATE THE THIRD ANIMAL HERE. SANGOMA SHOULD WIN THIS ONE FAIRLY EASILY.

NARENDRA LAGAD WILL BE IN THE LIMELIGHT. MIGHT DO A 1-2 HERE. WILD TEMPER TO ARKHOS FOR ME IS HIS 1-2. I DON’T LIKE OUR EXCLENCEE, SPECIALLY AT THE RIDICULOUS ODDS IT MIGHT BE. EATING RECOMMENDED.

ROCKEFELLER SHOULD SCORE HERE AT THE FLY WEIGHT HE IS CARRYING. NONE OF THESE ANIMALS ARE TRULY CLASS 1, AND SAMARKHAND AT TOP WEIGHT AND 1600 MTRS DOES NOT APPEAL TO ME. DANIEL GRANT ON ORPHEUS IS A BIT OF A BOTHER, AND IS THE ONLY ONE WHO HAS WON IN CLASS 1 IN PUNE. SO HARESH MEHTA WILL FILL HIS POCKETS EVEN FURTHER HERE I GUESS.

SET ALIGHT SHOULD WIN THIS EASILY FROM THE MUCH IMPROVED AURORA AUREALIS. SEEMS TO ME THE DOCTOR SHOULD GO WITH SECRET GLORY RATHER THAN GLEAMING SKY TO FILL THE FRAME. AURORA AUREALIS PLACE IS THE BET TO HAVE HERE AS A GOOD THING. BETTER THAN PLAYING SET ALIGHT TO WIN, I THINK, CAUSE THE ODDS MIGHT BE PROHIBITIVE.

WOW, WHAT A COMPLEX RACE, REMINDS ME OF THE VITAMINS THAT ARE AVAILABLE. ALL OF THEM SEEM AND SOUND RIGHT, BUT WE DON’T KNOW WHICH IS GOOD FOR US. BETTER TO HAVE COFFEE WHEN THIS RACE IS DUE TO RUN, ENJOY IT FROM THE OUTSIDE. SELECT OUT OF THESE FIVE…. STELLER AFFAIR, ALMARINA, COVENANT, STAR ALWAYS, ALGO MAS, IF YOU MUST. AND MIND YOU, AT YOUR OWN PERIL. YOU RATHER ENJOY THE COFFEE BREAK, THOUGH. BECAUSE HIDDEN DRAGON CAN ALSO WIN. AAAAAHHHHH CONFUSION PERSONIFIED........... OR SHOULD I SAY CONFUSION MYSTICAL.

THE WINNER HERE SHOULD BE ARKTOUROS FOLLOWED BY BLUE RAY AND RAGHUVANSH. BOTTOM LINE EAT RED ROMEO AS A GOOD THING FOR THE DAY.ARKTOUROS PLACE IS THE BET FOR THE DAY. ALSO, SOUTHERN SUMMIT SHOULD BEAT RED ROMEO, FOR MOONDI PLAYERS.

ANOTHER VERY COMPETITIVE RACE HERE. AS MANY AS FOUR HORSES HAVE A DECENT CHANCE. HONEYDAY, ARABIAN SPEED, EKOFISK AND REFUSE TO BENT ARE THE ONES TO CONSIDER. I WILL GO WITH HONEY DAY TO ARABIAN SPEED HERE. HONEYDAY PLACE IS A GOOD THING.

SEPIA TONE SHOULD WIN THIS ONE FROM RISING EMPEROR. I WOULD PLAY SEPIA TONE IN PLACE HERE. SHOULD PLACE BY DEFAULT, EVEN IF DAKU IS A NON JOBBER.VARUN SHOULD FOLLOW THESE ANIMALS HOME.

GOOD LUCK TO YOU ALL.
RB.

The author does calculations based on certain mathematical theories which have been formulated with experience.

We cannot be winners everyday.It is important that we have a budget and play exactly as per a plan so that even during periods when the "LADY LUCK" deserts us, we still do not end up loosing a lot of money."LADY LUCK" does favour everybody at some point of time and we make returns at that time.


Mathematics by itself does not work whenever human involvement is there.

An analysis is also made on the possibilities whch exist for the Owner,Jockey & Trainer and a reasonable surmise is made.
