Cotton Trader likely to set standards in Ringside Entertainment Maiden Stakes at Wolverhampton
Despite the fact that Cotton Trader will need something special, his chances to win Thursday’s Ringside Entertainment Maiden Stakes at Wolverhampton cannot be ignored.
The three-year-old has been dependable since his debut in November last year. After doing reasonably well in his last few races, the time has come for the colt to win this 1m141y event.
Among the contenders are: Cotton Trader, Cape Samba, Hamis Al Bin, Dropzone, Redinessence, Bridal Medic, Serendipity Blue and Diggers Daydream.
The party will be started off at 16:50 GMT. With not much time left in the show, Bettor.com presents an exclusive preview in order to help the punters.
Everything looks in favour of Cotton Trader, who has been decent since start of his career. In each of his last three races, the bay colt remained unlucky, finishing second by a slight margin.
John Gosden’s trainee made his latest trip on February 21, when he missed first spot by one and a half lengths. Although he needs an extra effort to be on top, nobody can afford to take him lightly.
The bookies are expecting Cape Samba to come hard in today’s race. He was below par on his debut, as he finished ninth in the Don Deadman Memorial European Breeders' Fund Maiden Stakes (Div II) at Newbury in August last year.
After a long break, the bay colt will be fresh and determined to do well. The experts are not ruling him out of the equation, as the trainer, Peter Chapple-Hyam, worked a lot on him during last few months.
Although Hamis Al Bin could not do well in his opening three races, he improved his performance considerably last time out. After staying out of action for more than eight months, Mark Johnston’s trainee returned to the track on March 14.
In the Free Horse Racing Bets With FreeBetting.co.uk Maiden Stakes at Southwell, the three-year-old did a fine job to secure second position by staggering 14 lengths.
The situation looks in favour of Cotton Trader, who is in good shape these days. However, Cape Samba and Hamis Al Bin, who are making their seasonal return, cannot be taken lightly at any cost.
