The Governor's Cup & Mysore Dasara Sprint !

By Mad Max | 18-Oct-2017
R-5> THE MYSORE DASARA SPRINT CHAMPIONSHIP (GRADE 3)
--------------------------
I am not a big fan of P.S. Chouhan or S.John. However, I feel either one of them will win this race. My fancy is SHIVALIK STAR, it has a slight edge over SIOBHAN
-------


R-6> The Governor's Cup !
--------------------------
4 Kg raised to all at acceptance stage because Aster Rose withdrawn. Can you guess who would have the winner had Aster Rose accepted to run in this race? And have you got any idea why Arjun withdrawn his horse from this prestigious race?

BOOKER JONES-WIN
As per the terms BJ is carrying 4 Kgs extra the highest in this race. Ace Bucephalus and Jersey Wonder both are carrying +1 Kg each extra. Rest of the contenders have no penalties.

BOOKER JONES has already won over 1.24 Crores in stakes and beaten Germanicus, another Crorepathi, winner of over Rs 1.03 crore in stakes. BJ has already proved he can carry weights, earlier carried 62.5 kg and won 1200m race, carried 59 kg and won 2800m race, carried 60 kg and won a 1600m race, carried 55 & 57 kgs and won present trip twice. Srinath is partnering with BJ for the first time, as the company is below average, BJ may add this prestigious race to his kitty.

ACE BUCEPAHALUS- Forget
Yet to win a 2000 race. Secondly, it is difficult for the apprentice to handle.

JERSEY WONDER - Ignored
The trainer entered three horses from his yard, probably Prasanna Kumar may try with Suraj's mount Let the Lion Roar.

ASCENDENCY - No Class
Rs 11.40 lakhs won as stakes money so far, from this you can understand its class. Further he is running first time over 2000m.

FABULOUS-Ignore
Three races won in his career, 1400m, 1600m, 1800m, now attempting 2000m, without any track works. Originally this race was to run on 13th october till that day there was no track works. I dont know the trainer has given any tracks in the last 6 days.

LET THE LION ROAR-RUNNER UP
Suraj is SHP specialist, may try to finish so, but not sure.

NAVAL GLORY-Ignrore
Promoted , no class.
---------------------
Trainers S.S. ATTAOLLAHI, IRFAN GHATALA, PRASANNA KUMAR, NEIL DARASHAH & ARJUN MANGALORKAR all are working like a syndicate and this is my personal opinion, in that sense I think they will decide the winner and runner up mutually.


Good Luck !

Just got back skipping the last race.L.L roar saved me and came out marginally plus
If horse like S.Sound can win that too in a sprint race in MYS god save us.

My open challenge let this horse run in any other center and even if it comes in the ist 4 will tender an apology.
bookies day made by 2 horses Reanna and S.Ikon

.M.M good job in compilation.

Siobhan has improved a lot.should win this sprint race easily,should run close to record timings.
Let the lion roar has been improving steadily since shift in stables, traveling for the right distance should score comfortably.

Best wishes for all

Hi All,

BOOKER JONES - Dropped the rider in the last race, prior to that won well beating Germanicus and Azurro over 2000m. LTLR will finish 2nd.

SILVER IKON - CATCH ME IF YOU CAN I think the best 3yr old sprinter in the race. In rousing form, don't ignore.

I think its a Good Double.


ALL THE BEST!

Here are my views:-

Siobhan (only recent winner running at this graded level on terms, a prime contender to lift this trophy)
Silver Ikon (the young inform talented horse who graduating into the graded race company for the first time, has the form & fitness to consider)
Shivalik Star (oldie, the only horse makes every year his presence in this sprint)
Smile Stone (the other oldie, a money spinner)
The above will get maximum support, but am looking for one small upset chance against well established sprinters through KINGOFTHEWORLD (a guineas winner, after that win he did well on past few runs, now trainer brought back his charge from mile to this Gr3 6 furlong sprint event means a chance to upset all calculations)

A risky but a pleasant surprse is worth if am not wrong.

Only for information I have revealed about syndicates. This is not an allegation, but just a finding over the last few years I doubt their favorites failed more than often and horses with good odds won. And my analysis is simply no connection with syndicates and probably as per my study I picked best horses. For all those critics, please note S.S.Attaollahi has won twice this Governors Cup consecutively last two years and he is going for a hat-trick now. More than that Booker Jones won this Cup last year !.

@ Raj
Win or lose that is not in our hands. I just proposed, you disposed - the matter should end there. For your information SILVER ICON I doubt it will finish in the first two.

@ SFP
As far as trainers working as a syndicate, that is a reality. I have considered all those options (merit and demerit) in my analysis (according to my state of mind) and final choice posted is simply according to my findings. So there is no excuse or twisting opinions post race.

Imagine you are on a drive and completed the journey 95% thru proper roads, thereafter you reached a junction where you find 2 roads ahead on either sides and another one straight, and you are puzzled to pick the correct path. What if your chosen path is wrong one and the other one was correct. Race analysis is also same, most of the same after shortlisting contenders we are guessing which one is the winner! Sometime you are correct sometime others correct. So mind it several times I proved you wrong also ! So if you come out success today it does not mean for me it is the end of the road !

Silver Ikon is rumoured to havve come positive for a Grade 1 substance. Trainer should not have entered this horse today.

M.M you have named the top 5 trainers in a syndicate than why attend BNG at all there are many other centers today.

The lion Roar has been running in distance short and very race run so far has been came flying just short today it has to beat Booker Jones only and gets a wt,advantage.
So for me a winner all the way.

There are 4 syndicated trainer groups in MUM, also So what We have to beat them to win.still they fight with each other and do not gift any races

Shivalik star is 8 years old. It's win last time by lnk was one fluke.
If it can win again god only help 4 year old Siobhan and 3 year old Silver ikon who have far better time then ST.
Siobhan may win from Silver ikon by shortest margin.
Brooker Jones is a spent force. Fabulous is the horse to follow followed by Let the lion roar.

18-Oct-2017
I totally agreed mad Max sir..
Booker Jones single horse race

Manish said ...

18-Oct-2017
If u urself believe in the last pata of ur post, then why give this analysis.

Secondly, my personal opinion is that BJ is a spent force. And fabulous would be in top 2.

In dasara sprint
There is only one horse with an outstanding chance which is ridden by DS DEORA "THE SILVER IKON"

In GOVERNORS CUP wih 4 horses being withdrawn i personally think it as a MADEUP RACE

@ Mad Max

ASTER ROSE is running R.W.I.T.C. Gold Cup on 29 October. It is Gr.2 race while Governor's Cup is not graded race. She was already in Pune so makes sense to run her in Gr.2 at Pune than travel back to Mysore.
