Brown Pete set to go well in Ladbrokes Game On! Apprentice Handicap at Wolverhampton
Brown Pete is taken to bounce back after his recent trouncing at Goodwood, where he ran as hot favourite in the Anglo-Irish Stakes (Amateur Riders' Handicap) (In Memory of The Late g*y Kindersley) last Sunday.
The sweet memories of last month’s victory are still fresh, and the chances of getting back to the winning ways look bright at Wolverhampton. Richard Guest’s charge is due to face a dozen speedy horses in the class 6 Ladbrokes Game On! Apprentice Handicap,
taking place on Friday, August 31, 2012.
Brown Pete put his journey back on the right track, when proving too good for his rivals at Yarmouth. The Holiday On The Norfolk Broads Handicap saw him seizing the first place by three quarters of a length. After an excellent success, the son of Aussie
Rules could not carry forward the fine work, and became an unlucky loser last time.
In the hands of Mr D. L. Queally, the 5-2 favourite held up in last. He switched left, and got bumped a couple of furlongs before the wire. The pressure got the better of him in the final stages, as the bay and brown gelding stayed on one pace.
Owned by Rakebackmypoker.com, the dashing runner is more than capable of winning a contest of this nature. Only a full effort is required to steal the show. According to the program, the 1m141y meeting will be kicked off at 18:20 GMT. On Wolverhampton’s
standard track, the runners will compete for a cash prize worth £1,704.
Meglio Ancora is most likely to prove Brown Pete’s biggest rival. But it is hard to trust him blindly, because it is still unsure whether he will be able to avoid ill effects from Monday’s jump mishap.
The 5-year-old was in tremendous form following after Beverley success earlier this month. But the latest Monday proved to be an unlucky day for him, as he fell in the Marie Curie Hospices Handicap Chase at Huntingdon.
A terrible tumble would have dented his confidence, thus the bettor should prefer Brown Pete, who is full of spirit following a recent strike. Good luck to all the runners.
