Most Open Indian Derby

By Mann Esh | 02-Feb-2017

Hello Folks,

After going through the acceptance of the Indian Derby I feel this is the most open derby in the gone-by decade.
Without getting into the odds part of the analysis you will find that more than half the field has a realistic chance of landing the spoils.

Your thoughts please !

Regards

SILVER BEAUTY was fast catching up on TEMERITY, in the Oaks.
Might move up by a notch now?
Even numerology is very sweet on her.

So for me, it's going to be SILVER BEAUTY at the wire!

Sergeant in the arms only for 2000 not fot 2400 Mts,
so the fight between Hall of Famer Vs TEMERITY only , for last 10 years Dhunjibhoy never won derby as Fav..
SAA is fav ,second Fav is HOF & third is Germanicus & Temerity..
HOF easily available at 2.5 Nojy guys....

@Mannesh

Clearly u have not seen derby of super storm and in the spotlight.. Those two years we saw the most open derby, last year was comparatively more fierced compared to this year's derby..

This year its confined between the superhorse Sargeant and the shrewd trainer padmanabhan's hall of famer..

Hi All,

Mumbai Derby would be won by Sergeant in the arms by ease only horse that come close would be Hall of famer in hands of david allan.

This what my observation is :
GERMANICUS had won hyd derby last week neither sandesh or tervor would be riding the horse also is trained by VISHAL GAIKWAD who is under Dhunjibhoy & Shirke will not go against them.

TEMERITY - Already won big race may fight for minor placing.
MRS PATMORE - Was eased up last time coming close to post will come in place.
MATHAIYUS - Too early for him to see this high class of course pedigree matters son of MULTIDIMENSIONAL (IRE)-YANA shouldn't go down without fight but some other day would be good experience out for him.

SILVER BEAUTY - From Malesh Stable - Has shown class has been there on board always but not in this field.

SALAZAAR- Will run above,Bold March,HIGHLAND BREEZE,LUCAS,VULCAN- should set the pace from start,WINTER RENAISSANCE is donkey in this field.

Outsider for me in place would be SUPREME GENERAL if PS rides after the public hammering some weeks back that he got.

In my opinion Hall of Famer will win the Derby.

I strongly disagree.

The most open derby in the last decade was the one, that donkey of a horse Super Storm won and did nothing after that. That was a Derby with the favourite freely available at odds of 5's and over.
Can you please name 'more than half the field' in this Derby which has a realistic chance of winning? You mean to say 7 out of 14 horses have a chance to win? Can you please name those 7 horses.
The race is strictly confined to three horses, Serjeant at Arms, Hall Of Famer and Temerity in that order.
Rest can only place.

Regards,

Jimmy
