Race 1

3    TARA Rallied on to win this distance from FLOODS OF FORTUNE.

Race 3
2    RAJASTHAN ROYALS Unlucky to have lost to PURE ELATION. Stepped up distance is likely to suit.
1    BELLIGERENT Finished on close to SABA.
5    FORWARD CHARGE Received a check soon after the start, but flew in to finish a good 2nd to THEIRLILSISTER
.
Race 4
2    OCEAN YARRMAN A sitter in this race for having finished close to CAMACHO.

Race 5
2    STERLING SILVER 10/10/2010 EIPH (Bleeder),30/11/2010 Joint Injection,21/12/2010 Joint Injection
Jumped out awkwardly towards the outside. Approaching 600 metres, STERLING SILVER (D.K.Ashish) was steadied while racing on the inside of CAPTAIN SMART (C.S.Jodha) who had a saddle slip. An Enquiry has been initiated  into the running and riding of STERLING SILVER and a reported will be submitted shortly. The video recording of the race was again viewed and it was pointed out to Tr.Narendra Lagad that soon after the start STERLING SILVER was in a good position and Jockey D.K.Ashish had started checking the filly even before the outside horses shifted in. Further, entering the straight, Jockey D.K.Ashish had unnecessarily changed course to make his move from the outside thereby losing valuable ground. Trainer Lagad said that at the start the filly jumped out awkwardly towards the outside and was bumped and then the filly tried to go out and at the same time the outside horses were shifting in and seeing this, the Jockey tried to correct the filly when he was bumped by the outside horse. As regards changing of the course, he pointed out that before the bend the filly was knocked 3 to 4 times and also there was a wall of horses ahead and therefore the Jockey did the right thing by switching the filly to the outside to give her a clear run and also the Jockey did not check the filly at any stage but moved out along with the filly’s rhythm. Given the benefit of the doubt in this case and warned him for the future.
4    GAMBA Hiding her potential.
6    UPROAR Fair credentials.

Race 6
5    FLAMING ARROW After some inconsistent runs in Pune, came out to win impressively in Mumbai. At the start, ESTEVEZ (Malcolm Kharadi) jumped out awkwardly to the outside causing FLAMING ARROW (David Allan) to be checked by his rider.Lugged-in in the final stages of the race.
2    MIGHTY CRUSADER Attempting 1200 metres. Showed wonderful speed in his last winning effort.58.01 Km per hour, as an initial speed in a mile race  is no joke.Aptly fits into this sprint slot, but carrying a penalty of 5kgs.

Race 7
2    ELOISE Conqueror of STAR WARRIOR and then competing with the likes of SIACHEN and OCEAN AND BEYOND should augur well for this filly.
3    VIOLETTA Her last winning effort was commendable with a breathtaking finishing speed.Had to carry 6.5 kgs and 200 mts extra.
8    NATIVE KNIGHT Appeals on weights.

Race 8
11    MISS STARLIGHT Has the benefit of 2 race gallops, facing formidable contenders in CLASS APART & CROWN RULE on both the occassions.
1    LAKE SUPERIOR Well prepared.
3    PRONTO PRONTO Fair preparation.

Race 9
3    ASTON MARTIN Lugged in for a brief period near 300 mts. and lost his chances close to ANGELS PURSUIT.Again starting from an outer block.Has both initial and finishing speed.
2    PRINCE OF TROY Bumped badly at 250 in his last run.Has credentials.
5    CREME DE LA CREME Had raced fairly in higher class.

Day's best OCEAN YARRMAN.
