We have a Long card of 9 events and most of the races have an open look due to the presence of many Horses.It is wise to Bet in a limited way in the first few meetings as Pune is not known to oblige fancied runners.
Most of those Horses which are taken to the front do well as the Course suits these Horses.My comments are as under .
Being the First day I leave it to all of you to shortlist the Horses based on MY Views.I will not be suggesting my bets.
Just that : Any Horse with ON MONEY odds is worth a negative bet.
1.Combustion , Medtia's Pride and Here comes the Don.
The first named being the favorite has been regular in the tracks and should oblige.Only problem is that Mallesh has 6 Good mounts and I dont give him more than 3 ( max ).
The other Two Horses are more suited to WIN on a start to finish mission and hence may the threat.
2.VB Race and hence could go any way.
Tsesebe has run with better horses and bloodlines are comparitively better.Having said that it is also a fact that in VB races favorites usually dont oblige.
Binee , Mubarass and Up North are the 3 Horses which come into contention if the fancied Horse fails.
Others may not be able to match strides with the above mentioned 4 Horses.
3.Secret Admirer will garner support on the basis of the good 4 th to KIARA.But the long layoff since February 2008 is something which needs to be factored in.
Flaming Arrow : Good run on Debut.Should be in the final 4.
Fidel Defensor : Should place by default as most runners have not been tracked and also do not have any previous form to go by.
Encouragement : may at best place.
4.Fire Queen , Raiba , Modesty , King of the Ring .
Looks like a very open race.
5.Golden Symbol : Tracking well has not placed earlier in Mumbai but has participated with some quality horses.
Sarjero : May place.
Aegina : consistent in Mumbai but was unable to meet expectations.
Calyspo Queen : Keep an eye .Should easily place and is the one which can UPSET.
Centre of Attention: Outer draw may pose problems .Hence avoidable.
Calyspo Dancer : one more contender for PLACE.
6.Wild Temper : Should easily place.
Livorno : distance is SHARP.
Wafadaar : may need this run.
Aquadisiac : Long shot.
Cairndhu : has the class and ability to put it across.But meeting some quality
horses in a sprint race.
Native Strategy : Some positive change in equipment seen.Is a front runner has been pretty consistent in that regard.
7.Fire God : Can upset.
Almarina : Expensive failure in Mumbai can make amends if Alford is upto the task.
Angels Glory : Last run was in Jan 2008 though the Mumbai season ended in April, 08. Unable to understand the reason for non participation.If all is well this race is at this Filly's Mercy.
Daffodils : Runaway winner.Subsequently NO SHOW.May place.
Blue Blaze : Impressive Winner and well bred.Ready to strike.
8.Liverpool : Looks outstanding based.But will track form be repeated in the race.
Mysterious Heights :Has done well Once in Mumbai and hence expected to place.
River Tern : Tracking well may place.
Dangerous Belle : Will place for sure.
Wild Torronaado : Front runner and 1000 metres is no big deal in PUNE.
9.Romantic Impact : Impressive Winner but handicap and lack of experience in Pune may cost W Smith the race.
Top Action : Consistent performer but may find this distance sharp.
Top Romance : Fit for the fray.
Vijayi Bhava : Consistent in handicap races.
Marmaris : Blood vessel case , pune conditions may suit.
Babe in the Woods :failed favorite.If Blue Blaze Wins , this Horse can be considered for the Double.
Good Luck,
