Chips Are Down expected to win Irish Stallion Farms European Breeders Fund Premier Nursery Handicap
Chips Are Down seems to be in a very good position to win the Irish Stallion Farms European Breeders Fund Premier Nursery Handicap at Tipperary in Ireland on Thursday, August 23, 2012. He has never dropped out of the top three in his career till date and
a solid run is expected from him today.
Things will not be easy for the young runner, as he will be up against some very good runners like Designs On Rome and Sugar Boy. The former of the two has been rated as the favourite to win the race because of the conditions at Tipperary. The going will
be heavy because of the rain and that will be ideal for him.
On the other hand, Sugar Boy will also like the conditions and he will be full of confidence right now. He has been given a general starting price of 4 to 1 by the bookies and the punters will definitely be looking forward to risk some bets on him.
However, Chips Are Down cannot be taken lightly at all, as he is a talented performer. He has proved his mettle in different conditions and the going does not matter much for him overall. This is why the bookmakers have priced him 7 to 2 and he will be an
ideal choice for the bettors to risk their money.
The two-year-old colt has participated in a total of six races, winning a couple of them. In addition to that, he finished as a runner up and third on the same number of times, which shows that he is quite capable of fighting for victories with consistency.
The Michael Mulvany’s trainee started off his career with a runner up finish and followed that up with a couple of back-to-back third place finishes. He brought up his maiden victory in July this year on a track, which was affected due to rain. He was unable
to repeat a similar show in his next outing, but still ended up in a strong second place.
However, the Irish runner jumped back to the top by winning his most recent race. He is in great rhythm at the moment and will not make life easy for his opponents. His jockey will be Conor Hoban, who has been partnering him for the past three events.
