My choices:2.Antino,5.Old fashioned, 4.Hermanus.


3y old maiden race, small field, first two are from known staying breeds from same stables but the other is unknown bred, but on its  last run looks to be also a staying capable. Though field is small winner is unpredictable. I personally prefer the first named who is from the blood lines of golden thunder who is a good stayer.


4 race:THE MAGANSINGH P. JODHA TROPHY (DIV-II),Class:TERMS (3 year old maidens only), Distance:1400M time:2:30 PM
My choices:3.Remarkable, 4.Sanctified2.Loyal lover,7.Wise approach

Another 3y old maiden race, Remarkable is well bred half brother to Aldgate and Promise of the future, a runnerup on debut, is capable of going one better. Second named is also a well bred but first timer, full brother to prana,knotty legend, knotty ash etc but not having sufficient preparation, still certainly will be in fighting line. Wise approach is half brother to may burry, Loyal lover half brother to Daring diva. Both may fight out for 3rd slot

Class:40 TO 66,Distance:1200M time:3:00 PM
My choices:11.Zayyan, 5.Blue Jet, 2. Challenge accepted, 12.Starlight serenade


3y old young Shroff trained Zayyan had an impressive run at Bangalore(4th to D'Artagnan in volts champion ship stakes) and, with good mock race preparation, stands a strong chance against improving another 3y old Blue Jet, who recorded a smashing win a fortnight ago.

Class:20 TO 46 (3 years old only), Distance:1200M time:3:30 PM

Race for 3y olds alone, winner should emerge from the above named, Rizz, who is well bred half siste to speedy Mageletto, performed against better rated horses at Bangalore in a million race, gets the first nod. Second named will run close to the winner.

Class:20 TO 46 (4 YEARS OLD & UPWARD)
Distance:2000M time:4:00 PM
My choices:15.Azalea,11.Savage peacock, 12.Allez E'toil

Monday hyderabad races
SELECTIONS


1 race:THE P. G. REDDY MEMORIAL TROPHY (DIV-III), Class:40 TO 65 (5 YEARS OLD & UPWARD)
Distance:1200M time;1:35 PM
My choices:3.Victoria Doresani, 1.Glorious Power, 6.Clefairy 


Bengaluru based migrant Victoria Doresani enjoys a decisive edge over her local competitors.


2 race:THE ROYAL REVIVE PLATE, Class:TERMS (3 year old maidens only)
Distance:1400M time:2:10 PM
My choices:2.Toshiro, 6.Digital empress,1.Concordia

Distance:1200M time:2:45 PM
My choices:5.Laquinta, 1.Daring spirit,3. Basilica


Daring Spirit, an impressive winner last time out, post penalty, may be difficult to repeat. Bangalore migrant Basilica won the race in same class at Bangalore, but nothing has done in higher class at Bangalore, now racing in a lower class on local track. Doesn't impress me for win.  4y old young Laquinta though a non winner has a chance to upset the fancied runners in its 11th career start, an each way suggested if odds are more for comfort.


4 race:THE DEVARAKONDA TROPHY (DIV-I), Class:20 TO 45 (3 YEARS OLD & UPWARD), Distance:1100M time:3:20 PM

My choices:1.Exclusive Black ,8.Shooting Star, 5.Federer 


Feature event of the day. Exclusive black is a good type, last time took a long lead unnecesarily thereby tired  nearing 100 mtrs or so, dropped back there on. Now contesting with poor field of runners, with jockey Trevor in the saddle, should romp home to victory


6 race:THE DEVARAKONDA TROPHY (DIV-II),Class:20 TO 45 (3 YEARS OLD & UPWARD), Distance:1100M time:4:30 PM
My choices:6.French lady, 1.Feel The Magic,7.Golden Unicorn ,8.Don Cherie
