People Think Of Success And They Achieved It

By S C Sharma | 29-Oct-2018

How sincerity, hard work and dedication pays you the devidents is the real example of jockey Akshay Kumar and trainer R H Sequeira. People think of success and they made it possible and achieved it. 

The three and half month 28 race meetings Hyderabad monsoon season ended with yet another record of 51 wins by Jockey Akshay Kumar  which is not seen in recent so many years thus breaking the 44 win past record of P S Chouhan achieved in the year 2013. To my memory this is the best record of past eight years ( turf record may correct if I am wrong ) and what a statistics and strike rate just look at : Akshay Kumar  ridden 163 mounts during the season, out of which 51 won,31 second, 21 third and twenty fourth and 40 mounts not placed on board. Total 123 mounts ridden by AK placed on board. This is absolutely  rare phenomena. It can be seen in Chennai or Ooty but not at Hyderabad. 

Now come to the strike rate and statistics of R H Sequeira. Total runners 105 out of which 29 win, 19 second, 13 third and 11 fourth and 33 not placed on board. Total 72 runners are on board. This is not a ordinary achievement. This is something extra ordinary and worth praising. He is not having a string of highly rated bloodline horses like Padmanabhan and P Shroff and yet he delivered the result.

Akshay Kumar also not ridden very top breed horses where he has to do little but for every single win he showed his judgement of pace and timing when to accelerate and ridden with perfection and hard work. He established good rapart with the horses and horses able to understand what their master wants from them.

Salute and kudos to both jockey and trainer. Both of them forced all India big ones to recognize their talent and  also made it clear that given better quality of horses they are ready to deliver the best results true to their potential. Keep up the confidence and honesty. I know many race goers who are blind followers of these two. They just  see Sequeira and Akshay's name and put their money. I wish both of them many more successess and laurels and  request don't disappoint your well wishers.

Just like punters create hype around a horse they are creating hype around AK.

Jockey is only as good as the instructions to win or loose or reduce wt for next race.

Hi Johnson

Glad yo are ultimately benefitted with my choices. If yo want to make profit consistently, leave yor choice in every Race and eat all other horses. Yo will make more money.

That's a write-up worth reading! It has come with full facts and no simple glorification. It's also true that Akshay Kumar is fast maturing to be one of the leading jockeys in India today. That a veteran trainer like Imtiaz Sait has hired his services only goes to vindicate it.

Sharmaji, your writings has made the trainer R H Sequeira enter this forum for the first time and acknowledge your genuine praise. That's the success of your post. I enjoy reading your posts, although I may feel free to express my opposition here and there, if only I feel so.

However, carrying the name of 'God' in his fictitious name, I wonder why Godzilla is bent upon criticising any good attempt made by others? There is a section of people like this in every sphere. We have to either ignore such remarks.

Congratulations to Akshay Kumar and RH Sequeira for winning jockeys and trainer's championship.Akshay Kumar looks a far better rider nowadays,thanks to the trust he has been able to find it from good owner's and trainer's who aren't bothered about the odds they receive knowing very well most of the times they might start as a favourite.kudos to Hyderabad race club for having such large sporting owner's in their club which are responsible for many close finish in the races.frankly nowadays I feel Hyderabad races to be way better than other clubs.

@Sharma, 

You are doing a great service to horse talk,kindly ignore negative comments from some members here.some just give their selections just by a glance of race card and if any of such selections pass they come here to claim full credit for choosing the winner,how can someone give their selections such irresponsibly and claim laurels when any of them pass is what I can't understand.where as you have tried to give your selections (your writeups) are with lot of sense and with some responsibility,keep them coming.....I can just hope some people shed their arrogance and give us some better meaningful discussions in future.

Thanks

Congratulations to jockey Akshay Kumar and trainer R H Sequeira. Really a commendable performance. Want to see the combination in Classic races more. Those who criticises Akshay Kumar should know that he is getting rides in other centers too and with good trainers. His ride on Raees was extraordinary. Every jockey has his own style. So we should not compare jockeys. The more a jockey wins, more owners gets interested on him and he gets better animals to ride on. Hope Akshay Kumar too gets to ride big brand horses very soon.

He is just a normal+ rider..its all... not a wonderboy... in my point of way... 

The best finisher is Suraj narredu... Always... The Born rider... What kind of talent...he got I don't know... Truly epic riding.

Sreenath and trevor patel... Both  are trustful ..

I had seen each and every race of Hyderabad this season and Jockey Akshay Kumar has been too good. His judgements on racing has improved. But everyone should acknowledge that Horse owners retains the Jockeys for the season. This year the Owners must have seen something extra ordinary in Akshay Kumar that has compelled them to retain him for the season and that has earned the prize. Another thing all wins are due to team work that earns the prize.

Sir,

One swallow doesn't make it a summer,raci rais degenerating in centres like Mumbai considered Fair.leave centres like madras,ooty , Delhi, Hyderabad (happy together fiasco of golden brown colours who regularly indulges in like many of his mates-- no explanation asked by stewards),in Delhi tdato in last race connections of horse no 7 pulled off a gamble hours before the ownership changed hands which paid good 200  and more than 300 for a tote ticket of a fier or tenner as in Hyderabad and others.gone were the days when accountability was there.strictly for trainers only and not even owners are aware and do not count except for big fry.

Godzilla: On HT forum I found you are the person always busy in making anyone, anytime heroes and villains apart from only praising and praising yourself. What others are thinking and telling about you , you are least bothered. Just read others and introspect where you are going wrong, and whether your writeups are relevant with the on going subject and debate.? We cannot forget your contribution to this forum. Just board the train and don't be late. Take everything in right spirit.

@ GODZY

Yes ur 100% correct they just did their job and got rewarded...

But in my case I should definitely praise you for giving me daily profits by your selection..

Whatever selection you post I was soooo confident that it will never win, hence I was eating all your selections(be it short price or long odds) so iam very thankful to you..please keep posting..(iam eagerly waiting for your Bangalore selection)

hi fellas

Ak is a good rider n the fact dat he is receiving mounts in mum speaks volumes. Start wid ooty, this guy rides in all centres.  His ride on the ooty derby winner was awesime.

The horse came to hyd n then won a gr8 race n placed in the classics.

We talk abt Raees n Truly epic bt what abt Knotty Ash in the Derby or Benevolence in the first race on sunday

Cheers

SC Sharmaji

They have done their duty and rewarded for it. Other than that, there is nothing unusual about it. 

In Racing, in minutes the Heros can turn Villians. Remember that before showering lavish praises.

We as, punters, should not cross the line when it comes to Racing Professionals.

Friends,

What is most important for every Race lover is the complete confidence and that is, what ever you are doing in Racing is being executed and followed up dilligently and honestly by the concerned(  Mainly the Trainer and Jockey ) This is actually the back bone of Racing and if we can get this in our Indian Horse Racing, our Horse Racing will be no less than any one in the World. SCS has brought out this most essential component very clearly with facts and figures in his column and mind you this does not mean that only the favourites will keep on winning Races,but yes there will be minimal uncertainty in the minds of Race goers and the most commom question, the Horse is Trier or Not. Well done Akshay and Sequeira, keep it up. All the best
