Absolutlyfantastic favourite for Irish Stallion Farms European Breeders Fund Beginners Chase
Absolutlyfantastic has got the best chance of winning the Irish Stallion Farms European Breeders Fund Beginners Chase at Ballinrobe in Ireland on Tuesday, May 29, 2012. A cash prize of €7,935 will be awarded to the winner of race.
All runners will have to cover an overall distance of 2 miles and 1 furlong, which will test their endurance. Furthermore, the going will be good to firm in the race, which is scheduled to start at 19:05 GMT.
A total of 15 runners have been attracted towards the event and their names are as follows: Absolutlyfantastic, The Bull Hayes, South Wing, Silver Canyon, Eirland, Fearnwood Girl, Queen Of Cool, Uncle Taffy, Assumed Identity, Major Harry, Wilde Rebel,
Burton Girl, Western Promise, Breffni Gael and The Green Olive.
Looking at the recent form of Absolutlyfantastic, the bookies have given him pretty decent odds for the race. He seems to be in very good rhythm at the moment, thus it will be hard to stop him from finishing on top. The punters are also likely to risk
the maximum number of bets in his favour, as they do not have many other options available.
The seven-year-old gelding has participated in seven races overall, winning a couple of them. However, he has been unable to deliver a triumphant run in chase events. Despite that, his form in this format is not bad at all, which means that he will
give a tough time to his opponents today.
The Henry De Bromhead’s trainee was impressive in his most recent race, as he finished third overall. This was his first ever chase outing and he did a decent job in it. He lacked the stamina to match his opponents back then, which might discourage
the bettors to some extent.
Absolutlyfantastic will be partnered by D. N. Russell, who has managed to win five chase events in his career until now. His strike rate is not good, thus he needs to win more consistently in order to get the attention of the punters.
The bookies also expect The Bull Hayes to make a solid impression in the race, as he appears to be in good rhythm at the moment. He finished fourth in his most recent outing, which shows that he is carrying a decent momentum and will cause a few problems
for Absolutlyfantastic.
