26th March 2017 Race No.1:  OTHELLO (14/10) LAY KITTY HAWK (3/1) UPSET 90% of the horses worked in Treadmill are just gulping the race goers money, for that reason OTHELLO is not in my calculations.  KITTY HAWK was taken out by Geranium at closing stages in their previous outing. KITTY HAWK is a serious contender.  A place certainty. Can upset. Race No.2:  MISS SAIGON (16/10)  LAY BENEZEER (3-1/2) UPSET Which horse is better, Miss Saigon or Carbonara?  Watch reply of Race No. 160. I recall that before that particular race there was a rumour in the entire racecourse that  the race is fixed and Miss Saigon is not in the fray.

25th March 2017 Race-1:  ISINIT Vs RICH N RARE RICH N RARE-(Not in Odds) Upset ISINIT – (2-1/2)  Nest best GOOD CHANCE if former FAULTS/ HEADLINES (2-1/2) LAY ISINIT (tightened for room at the start), HEADLINES (got check at the start), DECCAN KING (Jumped outwards and met interference at start), MILWALKEE (Jumped outwards and met check approaching 150 mtrs), RICH N RARE (had to be checked approaching 850 mtrs). What is special about these horses is that all these horses GOT CHECK in their previous outings, and finished less than 1 seconds behind the eventual Winners, hence I consider all of them are contenders. My choice is RICH N RARE as it has the best draw.  First time going over 1200m race, that tempt me to back an UNCERTAIN first race. Race-2:   RAEES  Vs. FROSTY RAEES – (2-1/2) WIN Completed hat-trick of wins, twice over 2400m, last race in Class-II by 5-1/2 lengths, may continue the winning streak. FROSTY – (3-1/2) SECOND BEST Ran in two OAKS
