Calypso Bay tipped to win Barry Walters Catering Handicap Chase
Calypso Bay has got the best chances of winning the Barry Walters Catering Handicap Chase at Ffos Las in England on Tuesday, June 5, 2012. The winner of the class-4 event will be awarded a cash prize of £3,574.
Stamina will play a crucial part in the race, as the overall distance to cover will be 3 miles. The action at Ffos Las is scheduled to begin at 17:15 GMT and following entries have been confirmed: Harouet, Calypso Bay, Lucky Mix, Sound Stage, Whispering
Jack, Ethiopia and Chesapeake.
The spectators at Ffos Las will be provided with some wonderful entertainment, as some quality runners are taking part in the event today. One of them is Calypso Bay, who has a solid chance of winning, thus the punters will be interested in risking
a lot of money in his favour.
The six-year-old gelding does not have a good strike rate, but will definitely make things difficult for his rivals. He has participated in 11 races over hurdles, winning a couple of them and finishing runner up on three occasions. Moreover, he has
secured the third spot once, which shows that he is capable of fighting at the front.
Importantly, the Jonjo O'Neill’s trainee is in good form at the moment, as he stormed to victory just a couple of events ago. He was expected to trouble his opponents, as the bookies had rated him as joint favourite to win that time. He has got a very
good stamina, which will help him make a strong impression in today’s race at Ffos Las.
Calypso Bay will be partnered by seasoned jockey, A. P. McCoy, who has enjoyed a lot of success at this level and is one of the finest riders at present. He has got a fantastic strike rate and has won 272 chase races. He has been delivering some very
good results recently and the punters will be encouraged to place a lot of bets in his favour.
Other than that, Harouet might also manage to attract a few bets in her favour, as he has got a decent record in chase events. He has entered six of them, winning on a couple of occasions. In addition to that, he also finished runner up once, which
shows his level of competitiveness.
