16-Aug-2026@ Race Professor.. I thank you for your positive criticism that made me put more effort and not get carried away by the odds to choose my lay bets.
Even though the opening odds went little higher that what it was showing in the India race opening odds. I was just committed to lay all the lay bets minimum 10k if below 3/1. Even if 1 horse had won I would have shut my shop. Touch wood none won. 1-6, 4-9, 5-1 all lost. Even 7-1 lost but it got above 3/1. Laying above 3/1 is not in my book.
And yes I got 11/10 place odds on my 3-6 good bet. My small chance bet 6-4 disappointed me by starting slow from the gate but bookies saved me by opening it 2nd favrt. It was just a chance bet so no ways would play it in cramped odds. Just lost 2k win shp.
Anyways I am glad most of the tipsters got right horses today. Cheers to all!!

16-Aug-2026Here we go.....
2-2-:ARRIVED:-This sparingly raced talented colt traveled for Bangalore summer 2026 but strangely didn't participate in any event.He was tracking g very well in Bangalore.Even in Pune he seems to be in top condition as evident from track work.Should account for THALASSA easily.
3-2-:INVINCIBLE FORCE:-Won the debut race in smart timing.Further improved since his last win,the exxtra furlo g will suit him to the 'T'.
Keep an eye on AGATHA as well
5-1-:LADY SCARLET:-In the form of her life.Should romp home again.
Regards,

16-Aug-2026Pune - One horse
------------------------------------
Race 1)
9. HIGHGROUND - Backing heavily this time at this Long Trip of 1600 meters might get 20/1 for win and 6/1 and above or place worst case you might not get less than 15/1 and 4/1 for place so happy to take at any odds running with just 44kg on his back will be in a a start to finish mission Rated (1) from last 6 runs so this time has to clear and bring up his Ratings placed in outer drawer and fancy number 9-9 should Hit the board well place on scale one bet for the day at PUNE
------------------------------------
Hyderabad - Two Horse for the day
Race 3)
8. DASHING CHARM - two horse picking with trainer jockey combination both are too good to make profit with better odds tracking well and can ignore last run where he was placed close second to GREIF. In a no whip race ridden by AK this time Ajeet Kumar will hack the field
------------------------------------
Race 5)
5. DIVINE TIGER - same trainer jockey combination have to take double for the day jo looking back have to be in top three by hook or crook better odds can be found so look out for split
------------------------------------
Good Luck And May The Best Horse Win

Good bless you mate ...good luck
Saaz Kol said ...
16-Aug-2026Lay & play bets of the day.
1) Lay no. 6 Royal Champ. Already exposed horse. Will find difficult to tackle horses like 1,5 and others.
2) skip
3) Play no. 6 Agattha place. Improving after every run. Should be there.
4) Lay no. 9. Sabalenka. No rocket science , will lay only because there are couple of very speedy horses and it can be an anybody's race. I like Lagad's horses to beat 9. 1 and 4 both are very speedy.
5) Lay no. 1 Lady Scarlet. I know it's day's best for many but I seriously think this horse is very difficult to beat in a 6f race but in 7f race I want to take my chances. Will lay big.
6) Play no. 4 Amazing Ruler place. Last run met interference, should run a better race. Will take small chance.
7) Lay no. 1 Elevate. Handicap disadvantage. Lay if odds allow.
- ( after losing yesterday , hope to get some rewards today)

16-Aug-2026Pune Selections
Race 1: Abhyankar (1) & Exotic Star (2)
Will check the odds and balance.
Win 5% | Place 95%
Race 2: Arrived (2)
This is the one I’m playing blindly, no postmortem, no second thoughts.
This horse is special to me. It takes me back to 13 July 2025, when I first started posting on Horse Talk and challenged the established tipsters. That day, Arrived came along with Baychimo, and I predicted the 20/1 crashes of Schoenberg & Cigar Galaxy. (Mr. Come On) was the first to compliment me...how are u mate ! Hope you doing excellent and health and works ...
So, advance apologies if he doesn’t win today. But today, Arrived is a tribute pick, from 40 paisa to any odds.
Hammer on Win 20 units
Rest selections at my Instagram page - furlong finder will be posted...running out time ..
Good luck people let's hammer or get HAMMERED

16-Aug-2026*PUNE MASALA SELECTIONS (16/08/2026) :*
RACE 1 : Hrs no 6 (*ROYAL CHAMP*) came up well from rear and finished 2nd over C&D, now again tried over same distance, retains good form with same jockey retained on top, should be given another chance today.
Hrs no 8 (*YULETIDE*) should fight every inch of the ground.
RACE 2 : Hrs no 2 (*ARRIVED*) 4yrs old colt honest galloper had ran with good companies in past, now back to his home ground, retains good form and inform rider engaged on top, if hits the front looks hard to beat today.
*DAYS BEST*
RACE 3 : Hrs no 1 (*ORGANIZED CHAOS*) well bred colt very consistent galloper, run 2nd over 6 furlong in his previous outing, now going in an extended trip of 7 furlongs, worked well in his morning trials, try jockey on top now, if intend positive can put up a winning gallop today.
Hrs no 2 (*INVINCIBLE FORCE*) 3yrs gelding making handicap debut is the only danger in the bunch.
RACE 4 : Hrs no 3 (*RIVAYAT*) well prepared debutant running in a Million, good in his morning track work, inform jockey engaged on top, if in galloping mood can romp back home today.
*EACH WAY*
RACE 5 : Hrs no 2 (*ZAANDAAR*) well bred 3yrs old colt still unbeaten in his career, now coming after a vacation is running in a Grd-III race over 7 furlong, retains good form and try jockey engaged on top, looks all set to retain his unbeatable streak today.
*STRONG FANCY*
RACE 6 : Hrs no 2 (*EARTH*) ignore his last outing over 7 furlong, now again running in same trip, moving nicely in her morning trial, 5kg claimer jockey on top will give handy advantage over rivals, if intend positive can romp back home today.
Hrs no 6 (*NEUTRALIST*) she is the one to beat all in the bunch.
RACE 7 : Hrs no 1 (*ELEVATE*) the 3yrs old gelding making his handicap debut, leading the field all the way and gave up in straight to finish 2nd over C&D previous outing, now again going in same trip with try jockey on top, retains good form, should run a forward race again today.
Hrs no 4 (*VIENNOISE*) can upset, keep an eye on any market move.
*HAPPY PUNTING FRIENDS*

16-Aug-2026@race professor. I read your comments late. Thought to respond you here. You were right that I should take few days off for having couple of bad lay choices. But, with that logic half of HT would have to take long break.
Anyways, I like owning my mistakes more than my victories. I only accepted my fault to explain what was in my mind when I layed those horses. I went wrong. I accepted it. But, we all make mistakes don't we?
By the way my reason to respond you was more on your comment that I should give on money lay bets, I would like to clarify I try to find horses which can lose below 3/1. Not intentionally choose on money fav. So many times I gave on money fav also to lay. Please see my comments in last 2 weeks. I always have at least 1 horse which can beat the lay choice of mine and when that particular horse isn't on job or underperforms then the horse wins.
Like play bets, lay bets also have vulnerability. I love laying because it has given me a lot of profit in last 3 years. I won't stop it.
I like your selections too. More than your selection your confidence behind your choices. But so many times you also choose horses which I can lay for places also but I never ridicule anyone. We all are students and lovers of this sports. We should appreciate each other.
None of us take commissions from others to give winning bets. So no one should ridicule us as well. I am ready to make mistakes. But, I won't take break.
God bless you
