La Rondine

By Manish | 17-Nov-2018

In sunday mumbai races, last race has a runner named La Rondine, from Rahy Serenade.

As far as i remember, the foals of Rahy Serenade have all gone upto class I and may be won many graded races.

But LR is starting its career by a Class IV race.  Sounds puzzling (read fishy).

La Rondine Sire Kinda Ka is so so and so too the dam Rahys Seranade.However, this horse is blazing the track.

Still I will go with Flaming Martinii and Trevor, who will ride a hell of a race. It would be quite interesting, whatever the outcome may be.

[Nanoli Stud & Agricultural Farms]

2014 aborted to Midnight Interlude[USA]

Bloodlines are strong & good ,main issue is the INTENT of the owner & trainer to go on job and win this on the first day of new season .

Hot fav  - owners would like to do a REVERSE and make it lose while getting back money tht they spent on purchasing the horse .. on the other hand if 4-5 to one in odds - first run horse being ready will try to encash 

Cheers

I don't understand why this confusion on SERJEANT AT ARMS half brother . "LA RONDINE" making his debut in class 4 race! Let's see her morning track trails, he as given 3 mock races all together in which he had performed very poorly in his first mock race, then improved in second mock race (runner up to Roberta) and has won with dist in her last mock race and tracking good in the latest trails!  

Now the connections and trainer feel he is ready to strike ! . its just cake walk for LA RONDINE ! 

 

I remember SERJEANT AT ARMS was given a mock race with "BE SAFE" before his debut in the Bangalore summer season  of 2016! BESAFE won the race SERJEANT AT ARMS followed him with more in hand!

RAHY'S SERENADE -  I REMEBER A GOOD PEDIGREE  -  SHOULD RUN A VERY BOLD RACE..  AS FAR AS I REMEMBER LIKES TO COME FROM BEHIND.... SHOULD BE SITTING LETHARGICALLY AT THE TAIL END AND SHOULD ROMP HOME IN SPECTACULAR MANNER.... MANY OF THE HORSES DID....

Dumbo,

 

Plz see the records of gud horses.  All of them start with 3 year old maiden category and that too a trophy race.  And this race is a plate race, that too division 2

@Manish,please don't expose your total ignorance.All horses start their careers in class 4.Not fishy at all.
