Blue Blood expected to succeed in Kevin Penny 25th Birthday Stakes
Blue Blood has got a pretty decent chance of winning the Kevin Penny 25th Birthday Stakes at Belle Vue in England on Friday, October 5, 2012. He has been unable to make an impression in Grade A1 events recently, but a drop in class will definitely put him
in contention of a victory.
Some quality greyhounds have been attracted towards the 470 metres flat race, which is scheduled to kick off at 21:38 GMT. They will be fighting for a cash prize of £76 from the Grade A2 contest.
Looking at the overall statistics, the bookies believe that Jack Of Diamonds will be dominant in the race, as he has been producing good results with consistency in this class over the past few months. He has not been in winning form though, which will discourage
the punters from placing bets on him blindly.
The J. B. Thompson’s trainee will be entering the race from trap number six and will get an opportunity to attack right from the start of the proceedings. He will need to save some gas in the tank for the end as well otherwise some other greyhounds will
catch him at that stage of the race.
The young hound has appeared in four back-to-back Grade A2 events and managed to win one of them. His performances in the other ones have also been good, but he will need to be at his best in order to take the top spot at Belle Vue. He finished third in
his most recent outing and that will not be enough to satisfy his fans.
On the other hand, Blue Blood has been out of form over the past few events, thus his team has decided to test him in a lower class. He appeared in a training session at Belle Vue recently and did a very good job in it. However, it will be a different thing
to repeat that show in today’s Grade A2 encounter.
The J. McCombe’s trainee last raced in this class in August and the result was a positive one for him. He was rated as the favourite to succeed and took the top spot comfortably in the end. He will be hoping to repeat such a show once again in order to regain
confidence.
