KOLKATTA WEDNESDAY 03 SEP 2014

Hello guys 

Welcome to Kolkatta racing day , a card of seven races framed for the day , 

THE TANGIERS CUP For Horses 4 years old and over to be run over 7F is the 

feature race of the day , four horses have been accepted to compete in , Saturday being 

a major event day coming up  smaller stable may try to get some stake , 

My probable contenders ---


RACE NO 1 -- THE ESPOIR PLATE

( should have been named as THE SANS ESPOIR PLATE ) 

A Handicap for Maiden Horses 3 years old only, Rated 21-46, Rated 1-26 eligible ,
five maiden runners to compete in for the stake to be run over 1100 mts , 

SOLITARY EAGLE ( 80/100 ) should start as a fav in here , ran second two times in last season , both winners of the race are now running in class iii , rider retained for the job , is on track 
SO REGAL ( 2.75 ) ran approx 11 lts behind the above named horse when they met in race no 267 last season , will take lot of effort and improvement to cover , looks difficult , is on track , jockey retained  
WONDER LIKE YOU is a no hoper in this field , 
CARAGH ran in a class v race , gate practice noticed , jockey factor should be considered 
LAND OF GLORY ( 3.5 ) was slow to begin and also jockey ASGHAR was reprimanded to allow his mount run an erratic course , tracked good , has ran in good company , since it is a race for maiden horses  i would recommend a three way bet on this horse 


RACE NO 2 --- THE NIGHT JAR CUP 

( what are they trying to fill in the JAR ? that too in NIGHT !!! ) 

Class IV; A Handicap for Horses Rated 21-46, Rated 01-26 eligible ,
five runners accepted to run in for the stake money to be run over six furlong 

GORGEOUS ( 1.5 ) is running pretty consistent races , no track work , ran recently close second  to too good PRIMROSE , facing some good horses here , horse is losing distance with each run , i prefer to ignore such horses ,Trainers record on fav needs to be looked at 
HAYATA ( 12/10) last run was bad in the hands of same jockey , may be was less interested as winner was too good ? but still should have tried to run up close , tracked once 
PASSIONATE ( 3.5 )  - winner of last race ran recently , now running for 100 mts more , jockey changed , Trainer placed two runners in here , this one got best chance to upset 

BET --- PASSIONATE 


RACE NO 3 --- THE FLY HIGH HANDICAP 

( the committee needs to be grounded now ,  lots of HIGH FLY going on )

Class III; A Handicap for Horses Rated 41-66, Rated 21-46 Eligible 
six runners have been accepted to run in for the stake to be run over 1800 mts 

MISTER POSITIVE ( 3.75)  is a controversial horse , has changed stable many times , distance is not a problem for the horse , 
SELF DIRECTED ( 4.5) last was too backward , jockey changed , tracked once , looks difficult to bounce back in such a short time , jockey changed , SHAILESH has placed this two times , 
ALMARADA ( 16/10) winner of back to back two races , the further she goes the better she goes , tracked with same jockey who is riding today 
SNOW MOUNTAIN ( 3.5 ) no doubt is a good type , is on track , jockey appointed is good too but the horse is running after a long gap , may need this run 
IRON LADY  - is the one in here to challenge , is on track ,  jockey changed , 

BET -- IRON LADY

1. MALPENSA -- 2/1

3. STAR SYMPHONY -- 16/10

4. ANDREUS -- 18/10

closely matched , watch for the betting trend at race time , the one who shows a difference of more than double should be left out 


RACE NO 5 --- THE NOT MUCH HANDICAP 

( this name tells the real situation of these centre ) 

2. IMPRESSION ( 3.75 ) -- ran last in a field of six in the hands of same jockey in same distance , not tracked , covering of distance in such a short period looks difficult

5. FANKAAR ( 2/1) -- winner of last race in the hands of same jockey , going for this distance after a long time , is on track with the same jockey , looks hard 
6. IN THE SUNLIGHT ( 6/1 ) - i always go for horses who show some improvement with each run , got better saddle support , tracking heavy , can fluke it 

RIVERDOWN and IN THE SUNLIGHT should be fighting it out , i will go with latter
