Class:40 TO 65 (5 YEARS OLD & UPWARD) distance:1200M time:1:00 P.M.

My choices:3. Royal Deccan 16. Agera, 7. Dansetsu. 4. Spotlight.

It is an open contest, with the winner expected to emerge from among these three leading contenders. Agera may place at longer odds.

2 race:THE ROYAL WESTERN INDIA TURF CLUB MILLION,40 TO 65 1800M 1:30 P.M.

My choices:7. Moon Oracle 5. Maana ,6. Moon Star

Moon Oracle is making her debut in a handicap race after an impressive win in a terms race — she can be fancied to win again.

3 race:THE JAPAN CUP
Class:20 TO 45 distance:1400M time:2:00 P.M.

My choices:3. Your Sri Shakthi,9. Royal Vanguard 4. Ravishing Queen

Your Sri Shakthi won running away last start and has a fighting chance to go back to back, though Royal Vanguard and Ravishing Queen — both returning after a three month break — should give her a stiff fight. Kiss of grey is a demotee bears watching

4 race:THE SURESH MAHINDRA MULTI MILLION (GR.2),Class:TERMS (4 YEARS OLD & UPWARD) 1400M 2:30 P.M.

My choices:2. Money Bags, 1.African Gold, 3. Gachchhatu

Top rated Money Bags endured an unexpected defeat in the Sprinters' Cup yesterday; however, he should emerge victorious today, provided he is free of any health concerns.

5 race:THE SMT GAYATRI DEVI AND SARDAR K.B.RAMACHANDRARAJ URS MILLION, Class:80-ABOVE                distance:1200M time:3:10 P.M.

My choices: 11.Aquastic, 8. Excellent lass, 6.Emphatic, 3.Rise again

The runners in this race have shown inconsistent form, making the outcome very difficult to predict.

6 race:THE MAJ. P.K.MEHRA MEMORIAL SUPER MILE CUP (GR.1)
Class:TERMS (4 YEARS OLD & UPWARD) distance 1600M time:3:40 P.M.

My choices:1. Alfonsine, 7. Prokofie, 3.Non pareil,

Alfonsine's last start over ten furlongs in Hyderabad is best forgotten, and back over a mile, he looks to have the edge over his two close rivals.

7 race:THE ZAVARAY POONAWALLA INDIAN TURF INVITATION CUP (GR.I)
Class:TERMS (4 YEARS OLD & UPWARD) distance:2400M time:4:20 P.M.

My choices:5. Zuccaro,1.Duke of tuscany, 3.Redefined, 6. Miracle Star

Zuccaro is in outstanding, unbeatable form and appears the clear favourite to win the prestigious Invitation Cup.

8 race:THE BANGALORE TURF CLUB LTD MILLION, Class:60-85 , distance:1600M time;5:00 P.M.

My choices:3. Ice Of Fire , 1.Mother's grace, 5. Vishwas, 7.Star studded

The first two runners have both won well and are closely matched. However, Ice Of Fire has performed against stronger opposition, which gives him a better chance than the others.

Day's Best : Zuccaro(7-5)

Good Bets :

Moon Oracle(2-7)

Ice Of Fire(8-3)

Sauterday Mysore monsoon derby day race selections

 Note:What I feel that Trainer Shroff is having eye on invitation rather than today's derby or other classic events, if he leave the stake money on today's classic events to others, concentrate on invitation and vice versa. Who takes The classic events is pre determined. It is between the owners/trainers, BOOKIES understanding. So do bet carefully or better stay away to bet in classic events 

1 race:THE MADRAS RACE CLUB MILLION,Class:20 TO 45, distance:1600M time:1:00 P.M.

Mychoices:4.Sensuous, 8.Valor Queen, 3.Desert shield, 10.Wanganui

Following several impressive efforts in terms races, Sensuous makes her handicap debut today and holds a strong chance of victory under ace jockey Suraj Narredu.

2 race:THE COROMANDEL GROMOR JUVENILE MILLION, Class:TERMS (3 year old maidens only) 1200M 1:30 P.M.

My choices:1. Astraeus, 9.Mandalay, 5.Celtic goddess, 10. Mother's Gift

3y old maiden race, 16 runners are in field, very tough to pick a clear winner, however the first three mentioned are well bred first timers and also working good on tracks may fight out along with Mother's gift who has run experience. Winner should emerge from these, I personally prefer Astraeus who has been catching the eye in morning track trials, and he looks set to make a winning debut.

3 race:THE MYSORE MILLION, Class:20 TO 45 (5 YEARS OLD & UPWARD) distance 1200M time:2:00 P.M.

My choices:3.Mriga, 7.Major sahab, 4.My solitaire, 1.Master way

With more than half a dozen runners more or less equally matched, this race is wide open, but Major sahab may fight out with Mriga.

4 race:THE ZAVARAY POONAWALLA SPRINTERS` CUP (GR.1),Class:TERMS (4 YEARS OLD & UPWARD) distance 1200M time:2:30 P.M.

My choices:7.Time and tide,5. Money Bags, 4. Encino

Absorbing finish expected between three top sprinters. Money Bags — six straight easy wins — faces career toughest test in the Group I Sprinters' Cup.

5 race:THE ROYAL CALCUTTA TURF CLUB MILLION, Class:60-85, distance:1200M time:3:10PM

My choices:1.Sicyon, 14. Storm Majesty, 16.Eagle eye, 7. Flight On

Another race in which multiple contenders enter the reckoning. Sicyon,  having already proven his mettle at the top level, can be fancied ahead of the talented Storm Majesty, who makes her handicap debut.

6 race:THE ZAVARAY S POONAWALLA MYSORE DERBY 2026 (GR.1)
Class:TERMS (3 years old only) distance:2000M time:3:40 P.M.

My choices:5.Stud poker,10. Royal Legacy, 2.Black Irish, 8.Madante

Over half a dozen talented contenders are expected to mount a stiff challenge in the Mysore derby. The two top rated may fight out for prime spot

7 race:THE ZAVARAY POONAWALLA STAYERS` CUP (GR.1),Class:TERMS (4 YEARS OLD & UPWARD) distance 3000M time:4:20 P.M.

My choices:2. Dyf ,5. Red Bishop

DYF lost to the superior Zucaaro in Hyderabad — and she holds a slender edge over Red bishop

8 race:THE HYDERABAD RACE CLUB MILLION, Class:40 TO 65 distance 1400M time:5:00 P.M.

My choices:2.Shining ways, 6.Crimson pirate, 7.Refined aggression

This is another wide open race, however the first named has slight edge over the Mumbai challenger Crimson Pirate who has won his last two in more comfortable fashion.

1 race:THE A. J. WADIA PLATE,Class:60 TO 86 distance:1600M time:2:30 PM

My choices:2. Dreamer ,1. Break Point

The first two are leading contenders which are closely matched on timing should serve up the contest.

My choices:4.Schorher, 1.Monterey

3y old maiden race, two pay out race small field of 6 horses of which the above two are mile run experienced and closely matched in timing. New star based on last run behind pure soul may be market fanceied but doesn't appeal for win. First named is well bred colt, last time as was running green could not do well ran 3rd, should win this time here.

4 race:THE B. PRAKASH SALVER,Class:40 TO 66 distance 1200M time:4:00 PM

Mychoices:7.Admirable, 4.Rambo, 6.Gold bar.

The above named are the leading contenders of which first two are only 3y young. Also have most graded race run experienced comparatively.  I personally expect the fight between the first two named former having the edge to win. Gold ba doesn't appeal for win here 

5 race:THE YOGENDER SINGH SALVER
Class:20 TO 46 (3 years old only) distance 1400M time:4:30 PM

My choices:6.Rouge, 1. Cavier queen

Small field of 6 horses, two pay out race, Cavier queen was a fluent winner last time, post penalty may prove to be a stopped, Rouge could not do well due to severe interference ran 4th to Pure soul. Cavier queen was beaten by Rogue in race no 133. Now good at handicap can beat Cavier queen this time again.

6 race:THE STAR MILLIONAIRE PLATE
Class:1 TO 26 (5 YEARS OLD & UPWARD) distance 1200M time:5:00 PM

My choices:10.Prince igor,6.Red merlot,5.Flash man

My choices:4.Knight regent, NRI tripple power,

Only two pay out race, N R I Triple Power's last run is best ignored— he looks a strong force in this race against trevor saddled Knight regent
