Coach Bombay set to seal second straight success
Considering the way the M. Halford trained bay gelding, Coach Bombay, fought and won the Bookings@dundalkstadium.com Handicap (Div I) on September 2, it is quite logical to claim that the veteran horse will be able to seal the ace title of the Goresbridge
Handicap (Div I) convincingly.
The 16-runner contest is scheduled to be held at Gowran Park on Wednesday. For the first time in his career, Coach Bombay will show his guts on the good to soft track of 1 mile and 4 furlongs. The lust for €3,850 will urge him to perform exceptionally well.
The four-year-old brilliant horse has won 2 of his total 11 starts so far. He broke his maiden by finishing first in the high-stakes race of www.thetote.com Handicap that was held at Dundalk on March 30.
The S. Dalton owned gelding clinched 4th spot in the Magners Light Handicap at Down royal on July 27. He went on to finish third against a dozen of competitors in his second last start named as Follow Dundalk On Twitter Handicap (Div I).
Then there came his second victory on September 2. That race, which he won by the huge margin of 7 ½ lengths, boosted up his morale greatly.
At the moment, Coach Bombay is awash with winning momentum, and this is the thing that will be instrumental for him to thrive in the coming contest. Despite this, he will have to be wary of Landero who has enough potential to trigger an upset.
The Bernard Anthony Heffernan trained bay gelding accomplished a grand victory on June 1. That was the O2 Maiden Hurdle, held at Down royal.
In his last start on August 9, the veteran horse finished 5th. Overall, he too has two triumphs to his name. Like Coach Bombay, he is also going to run at Gowran Park for the very first time.
Thus, we can expect a close fight in the race but success will ultimately fall in the lap of Coach Bombay. A large number of the sport lovers will turn out to the venue to enjoy the charged action. Let us be a part of the venture.
