With this issue of Racing World we complete our 6th year of publication, covering the exciting world of Equine sport – horse racing, polo and other equestrian events. Having moved into unchartered territory in August 2003, we are happy to have established ourselves in this niche market providing enthusiasts of the sport with comprehensive information, detailed reviews, timely previews, profile interviews, news and views, breeding and pedigree updates, racing statistics and lots of interesting racing information. Polo has been an intrinsic part of Racing World and we have tried to cover as many events as possible during the polo season. Over the past six years we have had writers from around the globe show interest in writing for Racing World and this has added a new dimension with an international perspective. Promoting all aspects of equine sport is our objective and we hope that those connected with the sport will contribute with ideas that will invoke more interest to those already involved with the sport as well as to attract new entrants to the game. We take this opportunity to thank all our supporters, advertisers, subscribers, contributors and the racing fan in general who have supported us this far. As we commence our 7th year of publication we look forward to your continued support.

PREVIEW - JUNE - JULY - 09 |
|
Bangalore Summer 2009 - Horses to follow
|
| Three-year-olds |
|
Aboline
(Burden Of Proof - Super Fan) |
Dartagnan
(Placerville - Rapidash) |
|
The Arjun Mangalorkar trained son of Burden Of Proof ended his first season with a perfect score of three wins from three starts including the prestigious Gr.3 Juvenile Million. Endowed with plenty of speed Aboline also proved too good for his rivals in the Gr.3 Juvenile Sprint Million. He is the highest rated three-year old in Bangalore and will be a leading contender for the summer classics.
|
Well beaten in the Bangalore Juvenile Million by Aboline, Dartagnan showed himself in much better light with an improved performance in the Fernhills Palace Juvenile Million (Gr.2) this season. He beat the likes of Astral Flash, Cruising and Forest Flair, though the latter was conceding seven kilos to him. Dartagnan will be involved in the finish of the Colts Trial Stakes where he will again match strides with Aboline.
|
Cruising
(Glory Of Dancer - Fast Trick) |
Spearhead
(Burden Of Proof - Imposing) |
|
After her smashing win on debut, Cruising was thrown in at the deep end just eight days later in the Juvenile Million. Running against some highly regarded horses she proved equal to the task by finishing second to Aboline ahead of Dartagnan. Her primary aim will be the Fillies Trial Stakes and while the competition is going to be stiff, she is well capable of troubling the best.
|
This full brother to Kingfisher Derby winner Fantabulous King was an easy third on debut to Captivating. After duly recording a win in his next start, Spearhead shocked the much fancied Classerville in the Juvenile Colts Championship in Mumbai. The three kilos pull in weights certainly helped Spearhead but his turn of foot and fighting qualities will serve him in good stead in the tougher battles to come.
|
Captivating
(Burden Of Proof - Cesandri) |
Classerville
(Placerville - Pleasure Hunt) |
|
The leading Bangalore-based filly, Captivating won all three starts here in the winter before setting off to Mumbai. Looking a certain winner in the Juvenile Fillies Championship (Gr.3) she was beaten on the post by Astral Flash. She won her lung opener this season completely untroubled and will take a lot of beating in the Fillies Trial Stakes.
|
Classerville improved with every run he made in the winter season. Even though he drew a blank in Mumbai in both his starts, it was his performance in the Juvenile Colts Championship that saw him at his best. Leading for almost every yard of the 1600-metre event Classerville was only beaten in the last stride by Spearhead to whom he was conceding three kilos. This horse will be in the thick of action in the classics this summer.
|
Gypsy Magic
(Placerville - Stunning) |
|
|
This bred in the purple filly created a huge impression when she finished like a rocket to take second place in the Poonawalla Breeders Multi-Million (Gr.1) after going wide at the bend. At the time of writing Gypsy Magic’s connections were inclined to give the Fillies Trial a miss and go for the Kingfisher Derby after a warm up race.
