HYDERABAD REVIEW
1R : Group 3 placegetter STAR OF NIGHT (8) looks close to a win after finishing in the money at both runs, the latest when second at Group 3 level at this track over 1200m. Likely to push forward and race on the pace. Among the leading chances. JUNGLE GIRL (5) returned from a 0-day spell last start and at this track. Before that first-up run she transferred to the Laxman Singh yard. Genuine contender on her best form. ROLLS ROYCE (4) missed the placings two runs back then improved last start but found a couple better over 1200m at this track, beaten 3 lengths. Nicely placed to give this a mighty shake. DESERT HERO (2) finished 6 lengths away in sixth at his last appearance over 1200m at this track on January 21. Suited in this line up and is among the better hopes.
2R : D BATTLE (5) was an impressive maiden winner last time out, scoring by 2 lengths over 1200m at this track. Is lightly raced and has plenty of scope for improvement. Has the inside gate and she can go on with it. BOLD BEAUTY (1) did a great job to score by 0.8 lengths over this course and distance last start in a far better run. Likely to be there at the finish again. FLASHING MEMORIES (3) ran below expectations last time at this track, finishing sixth and beaten 14 lengths starting at $4. Suitably placed so anticipating a big run this time. PANCHO (10) finished 8 lengths away in sixth at his last appearance over 1200m at this track on January 29. Cannot be ruled out in this suitable assignment.

3R : COSMICO (12) built on a nice second two starts back at this track with success as public elect over 1200m at this track four weeks ago, getting home by 5 lengths. This looks a sterner test than last time but on current form he is good enough to take this out. CLEFAIRY (10) doesn't win out of turn but ran a strong race last time out over 1200m at this track, finishing third and beaten 1.5 lengths. Has her share of talent. Hard to beat in this suitable race. JURAMENTO (4) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1200m at this track, beaten 1.75 lengths into fourth. Has a solid record at this course and distance, including a win and three minor placings. Looks well placed so expect a big run this time. GARNET (5) is third up today. Turned in a better run last time when third, beaten a long neck, at this track over 1200m. Has the gate speed to take up a forward position. Not to be discounted.
4R : MIRACLE MARY (4) is usually thereabouts but finds it hard to win, with only one victory from 10 starts. Did a good job last start to finish second over 1200m at this track, beaten 2 lengths. Placed to advantage so expect a big run. CANTERBURY (6) turned in a fine effort to score by 1.3 lengths at today's course and distance last start in a much improved run. Meeting a deeper field this time but he is good enough to play a major role. DECCAN DAISY (3) broke her maiden three starts back and has not been far away since, most recently when beaten 2.25 lengths into second over 1100m at this track. Goes well at this trip, recording four minor placings and is capable of going well. SOORYA VAHAN (11) produced a better run last start, beaten 5.5 lengths into sixth over 1400m at this track. Suitably placed so can turn things around.

CARAXES (2) is yet to break through in 10 runs but wasn't far away last time when second over 2000m at this track on January 21. Afroz Khan has registered two minor placings when on board. Certainly one to consider. ALCAHOL FREE (7) was below her best last time, finishing ninth and beaten 10 lengths over 1400m at this track. Suitably placed so anticipating a better run this time.

6R : Group 3 placegetter STAR FOREVER (5) looks close to a win after finishing in the money at both runs, the latest when second at this track over 1400m. Has the gate speed to take up a forward position. Among the leading chances. DUKE OF TUSCANY (1) impressed when successful as favourite on debut over 1400m at this track five weeks ago. Promising type who can measure up again. FLYING FURY (4) is close to breaking through following a narrow defeat last time over 1200m at this track. Likely to play a major role. DIVINE PROPHECY (3) scored on debut last start over 1200m at this track on December 31 finishing half a length ahead of the nearest rival. Big run is likely.
7R : N R I ULTRAPOWER (10) made progress last time out, finishing 2 lengths from the winner in third at the end of 1600m at this track. Meets a stronger field but she is capable of running a bold race. WORCESTER (3) was comfortably accounted for when fifth last time out over 1400m at this track, beaten 4.5 lengths. That followed a win at this track at the previous outing. Beautifully placed and is sure to take a ton of beating.

COMING HOME (6) did a great job to score by 2 lengths over this course and distance last start in a much improved run. D S Deora gets the best out of this six-year-old filly. This looks a sterner test than last time but on her best form she is capable of testing her rivals. D MINCHU (9) turned in a fine effort to score by 3 lengths at today's track and distance last start to maintain her good form of late. It doesn't get any easier but on her best form she is one of the chief contenders.

BANGALORE REVIEW
1R : Group 2 winner NIKOLINA (1) finished 12 lengths adrift in sixth last time at this track in a disappointing performance. Looks well placed so expect a big run this time. AQUAMATIC (5) is ready to win after another minor placing last start, finishing second over 1400m at this track. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well.

2R : ART OF ROMANCE (8) will find this a little easier than her second on debut four weeks ago, beaten 6 lengths at the end of 1200m at this track. Has a wide gate to overcome but she should pay to follow. GOLDEN LIGHT (1) produced a fair effort on debut last time out when 8 lengths from the winner in fourth at this track over 1200m. Watch for a much better performance this time. PERICLES (5) was safely held when fifth on debut last start over 1200m at this track. Tackles a longer journey this time. Better for that hitout and is one of the main contenders. RANQUELINO (6) finished midfield on debut last time out, safely held 15 lengths from the winner over 1100m at this track. Deserves another chance.

3R : BALTIMORE (1) is back at the races for the first time since December 2. Worth noting she filled a minor placing when returning from a spell last time in work over 1200m at Mysore. Sure to make her presence felt. PRINCESS JASMINE (8) is closing in on a win, last time out finishing second over 1200m at this track when just a nose from the winner.

That followed a win at this track at the previous outing. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. SPIRIT DANCER (5) is experiencing a long win drought, extended last start when fifth over 1200m at this track. Can play a prominent role.
4R : IRISH COFFEE (6) returns from a break of five months. Consistent performer last prep whose most recent appearance resulted in a win over 1600m at Mysore. Expected to bring the good form from last campaign to this contest. STELLANTIS (2) got the job done last start at this track over this distance. Has a very good record over today's journey with two wins from three starts. Has good early speed so should take up a forward position. Likely to feature.

DOUGLAS (3) was unplaced two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1200m at this track, beaten 3 lengths into fourth. Nicely placed to find some form.
5R : RICARDO (6) has failed to figure of late. Two runs ago could only manage fifth over 1200m at this track. Last time he failed to complete the course at this track. Best form is good enough to take this out. PROPHECY (12) was always forward and boxed on to finish fourth over 1600m at Group 2 level at Madras last time. Yet to break through here at this distance but has never missed the placings in four starts. Has the early speed to cross from out wide. Will give a great sight.

Group 2 winner ALL ATTRACTIVE (1) returns after a spell of 12 weeks. Started the last campaign impressively when in the placings over 1200m at Mysore. Has a solid first-up record of two wins and four placings from six runs. Worth plenty of thought. AMRELI (4) was well held over 1400m at Group 3 level at this track last time out. Is going well this campaign, recording a win and three minor placings from seven starts. One of the fringe hopes.

Less impressive last time out when ninth over 1400m at this track, beaten 7 lengths. Stepping up a level this time but on her best form she is right in contention.
