Baby Dottie looking to break the shackles in 32RedBet.com Handicap
Baby Dottie will be looking forward to a competitive run in the 32RedBet.com Handicap at Lingfield in England on Monday, December 31, 2012. She does not have an ideal strike rate, so the pressure level will be higher.
However, all of her opponents are almost in a similar position and no one can be rated as the outright favourite to succeed in the class-6 contest, which is scheduled to kick off at 15:00 GMT.
The going has been described as standard, which will allow the contestants to fight freely in the race. They will have to cover an overall distance of 5 furlongs, which means that speed will be crucial at the end of the day.
A total of 10 stallions will run at a time and the winner will be awarded a cash prize of £1,704 in the end.
Since most of the competitors have been struggling for consistency, it was quite difficult for the bookies to point out anyone of them as the favourite. However, they have given the highest odds of victory to Chjimes, who is a veteran of 111 races.
The seasoned runner has been in all sorts of situations and knows how to handle pressure at this level. He has been in the sport since 2006 and has represented his team in a lot of events all over the United Kingdom.
His fitness level has been impressive, as he has never suffered any major setbacks in his career. Therefore, he can be considered as one of the most reliable options for winning this race at Lingfield.
Despite gaining such experience, the Conor Dore’s trainee might not get the attention of the punters, as his performances have not been consistent. He has only managed to succeed in 14 races, so his winning percentage is on the lower side.
Moreover, he is not getting any younger with the passage of time, so he will not be able to run with the same level of energy, as he used to do some years ago.
This will provide an opportunity to someone like Baby Dottie, who needs to win races with consistency in order to get the attention of everyone.
Her trainer, Pat Phelan, will be hoping that she manages to break the shackles today under jockey, Ian Mongan.
