BANGALORE SUMMER RACING EXPECTED TO COMMENCE IN MID JUNE 2024

The Bangalore Summer Racing season is tentatively set to commence in mid-June 2024.

 

After a prolonged period of inactivity, the inept officials at the Bangalore Turf Club have finally stirred from their inertia, dragging their feet to the High Court in a belated effort to secure the necessary license to hold races at the Bangalore Race Course.

 

Once a premier racing destination, steered by legends of the sport, the club has now fallen into the clutches of opportunistic power mongers. These individuals, through unscrupulous means, have wormed their way into key positions within this esteemed institution.

 

The current leadership of the Bangalore Turf Club lacks the credentials, integrity, or legitimate purpose to be involved in the club's affairs. Unfortunately, due to a combination of fate and incompetence, these miscreants have tarnished the club's reputation, plunging its future into uncertainty and disarray.

 

As a result of these unwelcome influences, the eagerly anticipated Bangalore Summer Racing season of 2024 is only ‘expected’ to begin around mid-June 2024—assuming these misguided individuals inside BTC manage not to further derail the process.

ADAMANT CHIEF MINISTER BRINGS HORSE RACING TO THE BRINK OF DISASTER

  ADAMANT CHIEF MINISTER BRINGS HORSE RACING TO THE BRINK OF DISASTER The future of 20,000 individuals tied to the Bangalore Turf Club hangs in the balance as the government of Karnataka considers withholding the club's licence to conduct horse racing at the iconic Bangalore Race Course. This decision threatens to plunge the entire community into turmoil.   At the heart of this crisis are 640 horses, each a valuable asset, and the livelihoods of 2000 stable staff, 1000 club employees, 30 trainers, and 60 jockeys and thousands in their families. These people, whose lives and futures are entwined with the tradition of horse racing, face an uncertain and dire situation. For generations, they have depended on this industry, and the abrupt halt of activities would leave them scrambling for alternative means of survival.   The Chief Minister of Karnataka must recognize the profound impact of this decision. If he can justify pausing the operations of this premier Indian horse ra

OOTY RACES 2024 - FORM GOES AWRY – UNCHECKED INCONSISTENCIES

  FORM GOES AWRY – UNCHECKED INCONSISTENCIES IN OOTY RACES 2024   It's deeply frustrating when horses seem to defy all logic, leaving followers of form and patrons—the lifeblood of horse racing—confounded.   At the races held in Ooty on Sunday, 5th May 2024, several inexplicable performances left spectators bewildered.   In the first race, 'WILBUR', who finished a distant 13 1/4 lengths behind the winner barely a week ago, suddenly surged to victory at lucrative odds, despite lacking any recent form to justify such a dramatic improvement. The question remains: how can a horse exhibit such a remarkable transformation within a mere week?   Moving on to the second race, THE STORM CAT HANDICAP (20-45) over 1400 meters, a bay mare named WONDERFUL ERA, hailing from the stables of N. Rupa, finished second by a mere half-length behind the winner. This same mare had finished a staggering 22 3/4 lengths behind the leader just a week prior on 27th April 2024, and a cou

BANGALORE TURF CLUB: STRUGGLING FOR SURVIVAL IN THE FACE OF ADVERSITY

  BANGALORE TURF CLUB: STRUGGLING FOR SURVIVAL IN THE FACE OF ADVERSITY The Bangalore Turf Club (BTC) is grappling with a dire struggle for survival under the current administration led by the Chief Minister of Karnataka. The club faces a bleak future, largely due to what many see as an illogical and obstructive government stance.   The denial of a racing licence by the state government has cast a shadow over BTC's future, leaving the club in a state of uncertainty. The present managing committee and chairman appear unable to steer the club out of these turbulent times.   In court, BTC's legal team, arguing their writ petition, failed to present strong, valid points, leading to little progress toward reinstating the licence. This legal setback further exacerbates the club's already precarious situation.   The ramifications extend beyond administrative hurdles. Over 600 thoroughbred horses at BTC face an uncertain future. The cost of maintaining each horse is
