As Of Now Indian Derby Contenders

By R Venugopal | 08-Feb-2021

Hi Punters , Born Queen n Lagarde as of prime contenders for Indian Derby ... Still 1.5 months time is there any horse may improve rapidly between this .. Forest Flame can stay better when we saw Bangalore derby , it was behaving weird starting 1000 mtrs , after that settling it showed good pair of heels ... Immortality was good in Oaks but timing was slow , it will surely improve in next run ... Outsiders still to improve Lake Tahoe, Antibes ,Black pearl etc ..Hyderabad  derby show will make some horse to consider .. Still pending upcoming horses Theon , Socrates n some hidden horses from Shroff .. Indian oaks will decide Shroffs prime contender .. Is this 2021 Derby winner will be unexpected winner Like Rochester , Star superior or Some horse may mature at right time n show good run only in Indian Derby .. due to pandemic every horse had less time to prepare n at the end moment of Indian Derby any unknown horse may get ready to fight .. as per clock time for 2400 mtrs Lagarde n Born Queen but as per potential of other horses we still don't know .. I feel confirm winner no one can predict , Horse sport this year getting more fun n exciting ..  Please post ur Opinion n if u r selecting derby winner now itself then please mention the reasons as per ur knowledge .. Thanks  Play safe Enjoy sport

I would say that horse names starting with alphabet A to Z stand chance to win the Indian Derby.

Forest Flame and Black Pearl are the two main contenders. Lagarde will be adding pep to the finish. The only outsider will be Rumbunctius. If Black Pearl is entered then Born Queen may not run since Suraj may prefer BP. He was committed to ride BP in all races from the beginning. Further.Born Queen  is not an entry in the Indian Derby and they have to shell out heavy final entry fee which they may not risk without a good Jockey. Another dark horse could be Ladida, a very big made like Sir Cecil. It had one win over a mile on debut and finished 4th in a 2000 mtrs race. This stable is suddenly pulling out winners unexpected and leaving the field stranded. Proven ownership stable with the maximum classics started dipping low for the last few years.

Guys

What is the point in discussing the subject again again, when the real run of horses have not been revealed by the connections so far.  Most of the connections make it a horse to win in classics. It is purely left to them. Our experience so far is , no horse has performed as per form or trackwork outs in Classics .

Such being the case, enjoy the classics, leave the owners to decide about Derby winners and play other ordinary horses.

Even though we have been taken for a ride in every Classic, my point is we have not learnt the lessons so far.

What about arathorn and John Connor which are yet to race but having good pedigree and good track work.

@ Right Minded

'      Golden Oaks is entered for Sprinter Trial Stakes. If he runs in Indian Derby, it can only be as pacemaker.
