'miracle Star' Will Answer 'fynbos' In Future Classics

By Come On | 27-Oct-2025

Hi Friends,

When 'Miracle Star' was given to Neeraj Rawal for riding in a Classic, bookies gave 40/1 win and 5/1 place but trainer S Padmanabhan said on the eve of the Classic that 'you can watch my horse also', and rightly Miracle Star finished a leisurely third. The next run it ran was only to hoodwink everyone but the real preparation was planned for yesterday's Mysore Derby. The way 'Red Bishop' was running its last couple of races gavr ample evidence of its poor stamina at the finish. This was what qctually prompted the connections of Miracle Star to go all out, brining in Suraj Narredu to do the rest. Now, it can be seen how Miracle Star is going to toy with rival, including 'Fynbos', in the Classics to come - both in Bangalore and Mumbai. Miracle Star looks so comfortable all the way and the moment the brakes are released, it shows the real power to run away eith the race. James Mckeown can do the connections proud with this wonder horse.

Miracle Star clocked 2 mt 1 sec in Mysore Derby and won by more than  7 lengths

Its not a gift Race as most of yoi think.

If it participates in Indian Derby, it is going to be a top Contender.

Hey fellas

Just chill. 

Might be a flash in the plan or something big, never know. 

But Miracle Star js classic material

Now I wouldn't compare her to Fynbos who has achieved more. 

But yes, this is not the last we see of Red Bishop. 

He is much betta than his last two runs. 

The horses I willl keep an eye now are Sovereign King, Big Bay, Alfonsine, Indian Brocade, Maana, Zachariah, Fynbos, Red Bishop, Rosario, Gacchatu, Mountain Jewel. In addition to Miracle Star

Not to forget Echoes of Time n Ravishing Beauty who could have stunned Miracle Star in the Mysore Derby. 

Hope this helps. 

Cheers

Miracle star's derby win was a miracle, and now on will remain a mystery for everyone like borsalino. Concentrate on other horses

Punters, take note — the horse Red Bishop has a pattern worth watching. He’s been well-backed before big races but often fails to deliver when it matters. Many believe he’s burned punters more than once while still making things work out nicely for connections.

This is not a true run of Red Bishlop. Imagine him beating Mahler just by one and quearter lenghts and U Star by 4 lengthis. Miracle Star's was a good victory but should not be overestimated. We can say he has beaten Mahler by 9 lenghts. That's all.

I don't understand why so many people are pointing out the same Star Of the Night & Miracle Star clash in Derby. You people praise him when his selections click. This mistake could be due to oversight and sometimes you tend to respond immediately with memory. When you notice that one has pointed out the oversight mistake then others could have refrained to repeat the same.

Godzi is such a senior person and we shouldn't push him too much negativity.

Miracle Star had the credentials to win and placing 3rd in it's previous run had a hint. Indian Derby is still 4 months away and we can see so many improvements in many. Miracle Star will be one definite contestant. Adjudicate missed it or jockey messed it because the conqueror never won a 2400 mtrs race afterwards. James gets a chance to click now.

Imdian Brocade is by Multitude and you can forget derby for this horse. Can win in Kolkata.

It was a good derby weekend I played Alluring Beauty at 8/1, Shamrock at 5/1( I mentioned One Horse Race), Miracle Star @2.5( I mentioned stand in the queue) and  Tefilah at 3/1)

Did you folks notice that Red Bishop lost very shockingly nearly 25 kgs of body weight within 20 days( Race day weight 418kgs). Losing that much of weight is not a joke.  It performed well in 440 kgs and 430kgs. I immediately changed my decision to Miracle Star

Seems like Fynbos is setback as it didn't see the track for almost 5 months. 

Indian Derby : Zacharias VS Miracle Star both are stayers. Miracle Star will win Bangalore derby and Indian Derby.

Forget beating Fynbos. It won't even beat Red Bishop again. Though I don't fancy either of three for Indian Derby. 

Congratulations to the winning connections and tribute to legendary S. Padmanbhan.

Star of the Night is already 4 year old.In 2026 it will turn 5 year.not eligible for running derby in 2026 in Indian derby.
Miracle star won. Mysore derby.. Definitely it is not a champion horse like war hammer or Sir cecil  or elusive pimpernal.

Many factors contribute for a. Classic win.Punters when back a winner feel excited and think that they are at the top of world .Mood of other horses.particularly instructions from connections on horses heavily backed in classics is very important 

I told my friends that RedBishop will not win at Mysore derby in Handicap stage.

Indian derby is a different and difficult challenge.

Did any one expect Noble eagle to win Indian Derby at 100 to 1 in hands. Of Jockey Belose.

Punters feel that classic race is very important,but for trainers, Jockeys,Owners it is just Another race.

Both Miracle and Star of Night will fight it out. No fynbos or Red Bishop. We have to watch St Leger at Hyderabad and then decide.

Poonawallas Excellent Art combo with Multidimesional blood is too good, can stay the distance and thrash all.

Most probably this year's Derby will be with Aryaman Sundaram sir who's the owner of Star of Night.
