Mysore, Race #102 The Bottolonda Trophy Div-2, 20

By Drcheenu | 21-Oct-2017
Aerospeed, Surf Romance, Star Line, Halfsies & Perfectgoldenera are the contenders. Other runners not considered as they are either too backward or riders being weak.

Perfectgoldenera last start winner in lower class has to show further improvement to win this class. May at best place.

Aerospeed is a same class winner who placed second in her last start and hence comes into consideration but she will be carrying an additional impost of 5Kgs as compared to her last start is going to put her in a great disadvantage in this race.

Halfsies belonging to the same stable as that of Surf Romance is having his first career start and should treat this run as an educative one on race track and this ace rider is assigned for feed back in my opinion. Not here.

Surf Romance looks on the face of it is having all the credentials except in experience. He finished 3rd a 7 lengths behind winner in his last start in June, is now out to race track after 4 months with the best jockey to guide his fortunes. The rider has worked the horse in morning workouts and the race apparently in his grasp. Is a contender.

Star Line has been a disappointment so far. She has run alongside of several good horses and was rated 30 for the first time and that was her undoing. Was seen making her handicap debut in class 3 (30-50 in Bangalore). She had her best chance when she fell short by a short head to Raw Gold one start before her last. She jumped out slow in her last start jeopardizing her chances. Now well rested finds herself in a relatively weak set and is a contender.

In Final analysis, my vote goes to Star Line who has experience and credentials to win this class 4 race if she takes a level break from the gates. Surf Romance may find the weight of expectations and lack of experience a dampener to his efforts.

Good Luck.

Yes Dr Cheenu, STARLINE is my first choice as well!
Seems very fit based on his Bangalore track trials. Hope he wins in this company.
