Selections for 24th July, 2008 - Pune races

Hi Folks,

Livorno trained by Pesi Shroff ward is shaping well in morningtrials, can win the Commoner Trophy (1,200m), the feature event ofthe opening day's races to be held here on Thursday (July 24). Myrest of the selections are as follows:

Race No. 1 : Combustion 2) Hitz 3) Gatravat

Combustion though a dicky legged horse pulverized the field lasttime out in a lower class. Today though penalised heavily onpromotion has an excelent chance to complete a coveted hat-trick ofwins as the field looks mediocre. Hitz even with K Prasad, was seenfinishing on from second last position and can place at lucrativeodds. Forget Roman Beauty as it is a blood vessel horse.

Race No. 2 : Binee 2) Tsesebe 3) Cindrella Man

One can confidently eat the jodi of 3yrs old. Binee has been knockingat the door of victory since the last two runs at Mumbai. Has a goodchance to score here hence one should play each way bet. CindrellaMan has also a good chance to place.

Race No. 3 : Secret Admirer 2) Encouragement 3) Flaming Arrow

Secret Admirer finished a fair 4th to Kiara. With best speed ratingit should be able to take care of the rest here.

Race No. 4 : Black Warrior 2) Crescendo 3) Mercedes

An open race wherein anyone can win. Will advice to leave the race.

Race No. 5 : Aegina 2) Highland Conquest 3) Centreofattention

Again an open race wherein the above three have an equal chance.Still Aegina with good speed rating has a slight edge over other.Have an each way bet of average amount.

Race No. 6 : Livorno 2) Aquadisiac 3) Cairndhu

Both Livorno and Aquadisiac should fight it out as Cairndhu has notshown the form it was last Pune Season. With C.Rajendra Livorno hasa slight edge, only distance is too sharp for it.

Race No. 7 : Blue Blaze 2) Angels Glory 3) Almarina

Blue Blaze took charge and won fluently over the same trip in themaiden class with slightly better timing. Retains winning form andshould defy the penalty and put up another stout hearted performancein this present class. Angels Glory also won closely but formerlooks better on handicap also.

Race No. 8 : Liverpool 2) Hymns To Freedom 3) Mysterious Height

Again an open race wherein anyone of the three mentined can score.All the three are closely coming in speed hence winner findingdifficult case.

Race No. 9 : Romantic Impact 2) Babeinthewoods 3) Top Romance

Romantic Impact took charge and won start-to-finish quite easily.Well placed on handicap rating also hence should score here.
