Blazing Ruso to be outpaced by Head Iton Eoin in Lovethedogs.co.uk Standard at Perry Barr
Blazing Ruso would have been the most appealing contestant, if the draw had twisted in his favour. P. Rosney’s charge is due to start from the fourth trap, and a clean run from this box is not guaranteed.
So, those who are interested in staking their money in Friday’s Lovethedogs.co.uk Standard at Perry Barr should look elsewhere for the winner. According to our calculations, Head Iton Eoin is the best hound to rely on.
The black dog, who narrowly missed the crown on his previous two outings, is unlikely to find at least one too good this time. After finishing second just by a short head’s distance, the son of Hondo Black failed to add the finishing touch, and missed the
gold by 1¾ lengths last time.
The draw is massively in his favour. He will start his run from the red box, which provides a huge chance to take an early advantage. If Head Iton Eoin succeeds in leading in the beginning, it will automatically become a difficult task for rest of the pack.
Besides Blazing Ruso and Head Iton Eoin, there are four hounds in the pack. Their names are: Jacobs Courage, Admiral Vasa, Boherna Inn and Carraig Easy. The 480 metres flat race is due to get started at 21:30 GMT. It carries a cash prize of £200, which will
be given to the successful hound at end of the race.
Blazing Ruso has recently done very well in a short-distance race. The audience saw him making a wonderful recovery after getting crowded in the beginning. Even though the white and fawn dog failed to seal the first rank, he did well to ensure the second
spot. He is in good shape, and should be tough to peg back if trapping on terms.
Jacobs Courage does not have much mileage on the clock. Boherna Inn cannot afford to concede too much ground at the start. Carraig Easy’s inconsistency at the traps can prove costly. Admiral Vasa pays his keep in graded fare on home soil. This is far from
easy though.
The P. Rosney-trained duo of Blazing Ruso and Head Iton Eoin is the centre of attention. The former boasts a stronger profile, but the current draw prompts us to recommend Head Iton Eoin.
