21st June 08 Bangalore Summer Races

Hi all,
Todays card looks bit easy & punter friendly.There are really some good picks for asking.Let's hope we will get some decent price.Here we go,

1. THE CAMINETO PLATE - DIVISION II (Maiden Indian Horses 3 years old only ) (Horses who have run at least thrice but not placed second, third or fourth even once ineligible) (About) 1100 Metres

1.AL JADEED 46

2.ROYAL BANK ----

3.SIKANDER E ALAM 61

4.TWO TO TANGO ---

5.THEATRE STAR ----

6.OPPRIMO 55

7.MUSICAL PARADISE 52

8.PANJURY ----

Though Sikander E Alam has got the numbers in favour, it's running for the first time on Bangalore Track, & also has poor preparation, unless it's kept away from the preying eyes. Opprimo & Musical Paradise are the only other contenders.Watch the flow of money before wagering.

Sikander E Alam / Opprimo / Musical Paradise



2. THE CAMINETO PLATE - DIVISION I (Maiden Indian Horses 3 years old only ) (Horses who have run at least thrice but not placed second, third or fourth even once ineligible) (About) 1100 Metres.



1.RESPLENDENT ALPHA ---

2.TELEMACCHUS ----

3.STANDING OVATION 58

4.CALMING INFLUENCE 86

5.PINAAKINI 57

6.SHEER GOLD 65

7.SILK FEATHER ---

8.SHE'S SPECTACULAR 71

Calming Influence is working exremely well.This half sister to Hesperus should trounce the field. She's Spectalur should run 2nd, followed by Sheer Gold & Standing Ovation.

Calming Influence / She's Spectacular / Sheer Gold



3. THE BUKIT TIMAH PLATE (Horses rated 00 to 25, 4, 5 and 6 years old) (About) 1400 Metres



1.GAMPU 61

2.WORD TO WORD 48

3.ROYAL ARTIST 52

4.BADDA RUPAIYYA 52

5.AWESOME FIGHTER 44

6.ZANGI 55

7.KING OF GOOD TIMES 57

8.FIREY BUSINESS 41

9.LIVE IT UP 55

10.GRACIAN 53

11.MAFIOSO 51

King of good times should win in the hands of Appu, as it had dragged the rider to finish eye catching 2nd in the previous run. Live it up will run clear 2nd. Gampu though has the rating in favour, currently not running to its potential. Hence one may have a small hedge bet against K.Of. G. Times

King Of Good Times / Live it Up / Gampu



4. THE SWEET MEMORIES PLATE (Horses rated 20 to 45, 4, 5 and 6 years old) (About) 1800 Metres.



1.LEAGUES APART 75

2.A RUN TO REMEMBER 70

3.ALLEGRO 60

4.BENNYTHEBULL 69

5.MISS PUKKA 70

6.SERENGETI SUNRISE ---

7.LUCKY GOLD STAR 65

8.ANGEL FIELD 64

9.ACTION HERO 59

Leagues Apart is well placed to win here. Even with jky Smith, is recommended as good bet. Miss Pukka & A run to remember for place.

Leagues Apart / Miss Pukka / A Run To Remember



5. THE BRIG.R.C.R.HILL MEMORIAL TROPHY - DIVISION I (Horses rated 40 to 65, 4, 5 and 6 years old) (About) 1400 Metres



1.EASY 75

2.EL GORDO 77

3.RAPIDO GONZALES 75

4.BADGE OF HONOR 76

5.BASTIAN BAY 83

6.ALCHESAYE 85

7.BRIANNSTA 75

8.MILFORD 83

9.APERTINI 85

10.SNOB VALUE 71

11.CALLISTA 77

12.SUNNYLAND 74

It's four way contest, with slight advantage to Apertini, due to allowance claimed by the jky. I normally don't count the allowance for no whip jkys, while calculating ratings. Since Apertini has the initial speed & will hit the front, may come out tops from Alchesaye, due to allowance which I have not taken into account while arriving at its rating. Both Milford & Bastian Bay's stables are most unreliable, & when public fancy, their wards go for grazing instead of racing.

Apertini / Alchesaye / Milford / Bastian Bay



6. THE CIVIL SERVICE TROPHY (Maiden Indian Horses 3 years old only ) (Horses who have run at least thrice but not placed second, third or fourth even once ineligible) (About) 1400 Metres.



1.CARTE BLANCHE 64

2.RAPTOR FORCE 85

3.SPANDAU BALLET 56

4.ENDURING STAR 72

5.COMANCHE WAR PAINT ---

6.KALYAN ----

7.REDSHIFT 41

8.FANTASTIC FLAME ----

9.SPIRITED ANGEL ----

Raptor Force is well prepared. Full brother to Renascent will have a bold show on debut & is again recommended as a good thing. Enduring Star will be fancied by many, but it will be a herculean task. Carte Blanche will place.

Raptor Force / Enduring Star / Carte Blanche



7. THE RAMKIRPAL PLATE (Horses rated 20 to 45) (About) 1400 Metres.



1.REGAL RANSOM 68

2.SUPER SONIC 66

3.VIJAYSAMRAT 61

5.GALLOPING BLUES ---

6.MAJOR ASSET ---

8.RADIANT ACT 45

9.PRINCESS KIDANE ---

10.LADY OF LIGHT ---

11.SIMPLY SCINTILLATE ----

12.SPLENDID POWER 60

Regal Ransom won well, is on the upgrade. Today is facing a poor lot, except for Super sonic, which is 4yr old & a bloood vessel case. MAM's ward Can be backed again as a good bet & is my days best.

Regal Ransom / super Sonic / Vijay Samrat
