after going through the race card and some other considerations I feel today is 'bookies day'as most-more than 80%, favorites will fail.

WISHING A VERY HAPPY AND PROSPEROUS DIWALI TO ALL
I was not able to post anything on my blog due to serious sickness of my close family member and though saying sorry to my well-wishers and readers is not mandatory, I must say so. 8 to 10 months inactivity demands that!
I'll try to be regular and help my 'followers'by sharing my views, opinions and knowledge for whatever it is worth and hope that some of you will gain something from this blog.
I'll start posting my selections,following the same method- principles and accounting methods, which I left halfway during last winter season, due to personal obligations to my family and hope that I'll do better this time.
welcome to all...

Pune race stewards were/are biased
Ciel Indienne has won the race on merit. Su chaliyo could not have beaten him inspite of having better form.It is reported by Mr. Vivek Jain that the Jockey has 'admitted'that he has tightened Su Chaliyo but it was NOT dangerous riding and while Sampson lost the whip , Su Chaliyo could cover only one Length over him in last 200m under hard riding with whip.
It is indeed laudable that stewards want fair racing but by 'selective' picks of few erring professionals and overlooking more blatant ,open infringements of some professionals they areconfirming their bias. The stewards of RWITC are a biased lot and are trying to kill racing in western India so that the the sport dies the natural death and these people can help the racecourse area grabbed by builders' lobby . Many of them are prominent owners in western India.
Everyone knows that RWITC has two main factions and they have not reconciled their differences which has seriously affected the horse racing in western India.The decrease in attendence and turnover over past few years,continuous increase in betting tax without any sincere or serious attempt by the club to reason out with state govt. is a manifestation of this infighting. However, if these 'men' can not find a better way to get even with their adverseries , they should not make a common punter a scapegoat to score a brownie point over others...

why Becket lost Maharaja's Cup?
I wanted to start with a non-controversial subject but finding none I'll start with the defeat of Becket in the Maharaja's Cup.
Becket(60kg) was beaten by Arabian Prince(56k)and Onassis(54k)in this Terms race by neck and 1 1/4lengths(nk=1/4l).Many racegoers- including punters,blamed the jockey,the trainer and questioned the capability of the winner. I'll try to explain the loss/win using the ageold classic theories and priciples - none of them mine.
Out of several hundred races run at a racing center in a season ,some of them have an 'aura' or prestige attached to them like, Derby,1000G, 2000G and few more.Every participant(horse(!),owner,trainer,jockey) wants to win these races.this cup falls in this category.
Becket beat Onassis in Indian Derby by 5 lengths at level weight(57k) and in Invitation he beat Arabian Prince by 7 1/2 lengths,again at level weight(57k).
As per the age-old classical theories in races run over 2000m - one length= 1/2kg. and accepting the fact that in Indian Derby and Invitation cup EVERY runner is on job we can say that Becket is 2 1/2kg better than Onassis and 3 1/2 kg. better than Arabian Prince.
The weights allotted to these 2 runners gave them advantage over Becket and they proved it.
I'm not using the pedigree superiority of these runners over Becket at this moment.
These aberrations will recur in future again and again and a punter must be aware of it and safeguard his interest by taking into consideration various factors and parameters of racing.
