7. LOVE ME TENDER First timer. Watch race time trends.

Race 2

1. CROWN VISION Set to win.

Race 3

3. ONE FOR THE MONEY Found the winner SWIFT STAR too hot to handle to end up chasing. Note the plate change. Entrusted to S.John.

6. SUN DANCING An impressive winner in the Governor’s Trophy last season. Should make amends.

Race 8

9. SPARK OF BRONTE An impressive flier in his last gallop.
4. GLITTERATO A consistent performer in last season. Might have required his last run.

Race 9

10. LEGEND REBORN A failed favourite in his last run. At a tidy handicap.

MYSORE 7th July 2010.

Race 1
2. MR SUNRISE A failed favourite in his last run to end up a good 2nd.Can win this race with ease.
7. SUAVE Encouraging numbers with a discouraging jockey.

Race 2
12. BUCETHALIS An odds-on impressive winner of his last start. Can repeat.
7. ARABIAN MEMORIES After running in wrong distances is now running with Visor on, in her performing distance.
2. RICH ROGUE A good 2nd in his last start. Penalty might be a dampener.

Race 3
7. WORLD IS TOOMUCH An impressive 2nd to Live It Up in his last effort. If Live It Up is favoured to win the 5th race in higher company, why can't this half brother to Immense (2nd to Sun Kingdom in the Colts trial) win this race?

Race 4
1. MYSTIC ENCHANTRESS M/S Wadiyar's are lucky enough to have this filly racing in the bottom most class. Good numbers over a route.  But Mile?
2. ASPIRING SEVEN A fine performer of his last start. Running over a mile with 6.5 kgs penalty.

Race 5
10. LIVE IT UP Running over a mile with plate change. Entrusted to Ladjadj Stephane at a feather weight. Handicap chance.
6. BOSTON RANGER A failed favourite in his last effort. Ignore this run. Could have done much better.
9. WAR HEAD A failed favourite in his last run causing an enquiry into the running and riding. Can this aged gelding wage war with heads above?

Race 6
5. DEL GRATIA Conqueror of Miss Ruby who won by a distance last week.
4. CLASSIC CONCEPT Had won the race in a superior time than Miss Ruby on the same day. Far superior to the upper class Feel My Heart (same day). Cannot be ignored.

Good luck.  

Becket’s post-mortem

Now the expert professionals say that Becket should have run like this and not like that. Even Mallaya’s first Jockey Sampson had opted to ride Spearhead ignoring Arabian Prince and none of the reporters or the connections had advised him or had corrected him to choose the right one. After Prince winning the Maharaja, some of the write-up had gone up to the extent of Prince’s running in Hyderabad.
    This is not the first time these things happen. It will happen again and again giving rise to speculations. Silent BEFORE, loud mouthed AFTER has become a habit of many in horse racing.

Becket will bucket the Maharaja's throne.

Race 1
7. HOBSONS CHOICE
8. INTIZARA
4. ANOTHER VOICE

Race 2
3. MONTEDORO Should win this set.

Race 3
6. BID FOR GLORY Held on lucky to win from the flying KICKING KING. Can repeat.
5. BUCK PASSER JUNIOR A fine performer in open class. Will fight.

Race 4
An upset race.
6. SUPER GOLD Has a slight edge over the rest.

Race 5
2. LUSH LASHES Her last run is best ignored. Thrice consecutive failed favourite in Ban (W). Requires longer distance than a mile which suits her better.
5. MODERN ART Struggled to beat Sunny’s Secret in her last effort only to end up 2nd.
1. THE LAST SAMURAI A close 6th to Angel Fire who won today in higher company. Can fight.

Race 6
1. BECKET Will repeat his mind boggling last run effort. Spearhead & Spark of Gold for the minor.

Race 7
10. READY TO MINGLE Is ready to chew this set.

Race 8
An upset race
9. SUNNYLAND Has a slight edge over the others.

Race 9
6. ALPHA BABY Would have beaten the winner Dream Park in her last encounter, but for a slipped saddle. Should be given another chance.
1. FLAMING LAMBORGINI Switching distances. Can trouble the best.
2. DREAM PARK An impressive winner. Penalty may go against.

Good luck.

Frivolous objection by C(heat) Alford.

Christopher Alford after losing on 3 Don Diego in the 2nd race claims that he was bumped 5 times by the winner 7 Scionic(Amyn Merchant) at 250 metres and after 200 metres.
The fact is C.Alford who was hugging the rails all along the straight shifted outwards on to Scionic, thereby causing the bump, but objects that he was bumped 5 times. Did anybody see bumping 5 times?
C.Alford on more than one occasion had caused trouble in Bangalore causing commotion in the Bangalore race course. A champion Kolkatta jockey creating nuisance in Bangalore.

Bangalore 3rd July 2010.

All races have been restricted to not more than 1400 metres today.

3. YOURE KISS’S DUE A start to finish winner in her last start. Note the plate change. Entrusted to Suraj for a repeat win.
1. SHOT OF GOLD A fine performer in his last effort in upper class.
8. PRECEPT A start to finish winner in her last start. Can fight.
