Hi all

First things first, nice write up sir. You taking time to do this will benefit a lot of people in the long run. Anyone can say it was not clean racing just because they lost, but overall the club (mrc) did a fantastic job. The good horses did a good job, period. A lot of the trainers brought their stock particularly keeping this event in mind, or Trafalgar, adjudicate, corfe castle, and multifaceted. Barring multifaceted in sprinters there was no big drama in any of the races. All said and done, kudos to the trainers and jockeys who won and hats off to Mysore race club for doing a splendid job in it's first attempt itself.

SSPP :  You have to understand  that race results cannot be as per our will and  wish or on as per  our expected lines always  and I explained the detailed reasons  for this in my first para itself. I believe you are not  retired from racing, ( though it is not my concern )  but praying and advising one and all always to quit racing,  whereas it is the  decision of individuals to continue or quit matters most.  Investment in racing carries maximum risk is a well-known  fact and known to one and all.  Even after continuous loss if some one is continuing racing than what can you or I do ?   Pl continue your preachings  to come out of racing  to all  and If it gives you satisfaction and if punters are adhering to your valuable advises it is  really good .

It was wonderful arrangements by MRC. I visited in regular season long time back. Except picturque course nothing spl there. Even horses doesn't have capacity to stand with horses of other centers.  But during weekend entire atmosphere were changed. Mr.Rao and his team did exceptionally well organising this mega event. Everything is in place starting from entrace TKT to tote,declaration, presentation though no big celeberaties present they managed huge crowd.

As far racing is concerned we must understand that the home stretch s very short and horses accustomed to long stretch and take little bit time to settle wud not find this course suitable. Unless Jockeys took the horse in front immediately after start and stretch upto winning post only possible for outside participants. But in such scenerio it shd have stamina to overcome such racing tactics. I fact Suraj tried this type of racing on Multifaceted and Star superior but both failed coz of heavy pressure at closing stages. Spritners, Stayers, Invitation winners are not predictable bunch. No one can zero it on one horse. But if they select from 15 horses they wud have certainly these horses in 1,2,3,4 choices. Same method applicable for all horses ranbin Invitation week end. Except  samar horse others defenetly wud have your first three horses choices. So why blame stewards,owners,Jockeys,trainers? We tend to play on horses on which majority played. Bcoz we doesn't want to belive in our own choices. It's fate of every punters. How cud one miss Traffalgar? Does this horse no merir?

So stop blaming. Choose best horse in the field. Find out who wud be major threat to that. Keep both in jackpot. U wud win jackpot everyday.

Mysore Race Course is the matka race center of India..Just see the results at the recent racing festival..

Just horrible..

@ S C Sharma : It's true that Mysore Race Course is the most picturesque in India but unfortunately It's the most undependable centre too. The Invitation weekend races were run beyond the imagination of a majority of loyal punters that not even 50% of them will dare to visit Mysore again for the sake of betting, be it Invitation or any other race. If we compare what happened here with the Invitations of the recent past, we will know how horrible the affair had been conducted. It was more or less like 'daylight robbery'?  If bookies' homes are to be raided, crores of rupees can be easily unearthed....most of them unaccounted and cursed punter money? Many senior punters keep advising for limited investments, but what is the limit, no one knows. Celebrated race days like these prompt race-goers to invest more, isn't it? I can easily feel how many genuine punters would have got terribly frustrated after attending this weekend race. It has to be seen if a shabby centre like Mysore, which looks highly unfit for reasonable racing, should be allowed to conduct such prestigious races in the future. Even otherwise the performance in this centre throughout the year is horrifying and the punters could have been spared at least during these two days. God save racing ! God save punters !
