Crackerjack King curious to win Coral-Eclipse (British Champions Series) (Group 1)
For the high-profile race of Coral-Eclipse (British Champions Series) (Group 1), the Marco Botti-trained grey colt, Crackerjack King, is regarded as the strongest runner who will unleash a big run at Sandown racecourse in an effort to finish first and add
another glorious victory to his success-studded career chart.
The Class 1 contest over 1 mile, 2 furlongs and 7 yards is scheduled to start at 3:45 (GMT) on Saturday, July 7. Hunting the prize cheque worth £241,585, the four-year-old young and enthusiastic runner will show his racing personas against 9 rivals on the
good to soft track.
The son of Shamardal out of Claba Di San Jore possesses a tremendous track record. Since debuting in October 2010, he has won 7 of his total 8 starts so far---a marvellous achievement indeed.
In his last two starts during April-May 2012, the confident colt delivered superb performances and thrived.
First, he lifted the ace title of the Premio Grande over 1 mile and 2 furlongs at San Siro on April 8 and then stunned the horseracing fans by finishing first in the Premio Presidente Della Repubblica GBI Racing (Group 1) (4YO+) (Turf) over 1 mile and 2
furlongs at Capannelle on May 13.
Thus, the brilliant colt has plenty of pleasant experience with both good and soft tracks. This will lend a great hand to him in today’s contest.
In the opposition camp, Cogito is the only runner who can prove to be fairly fatal for Crackerjack King. The Brian Meehan-trained bay colt started his career in April 2012 with the title of the Alex Scott Maiden Stakes (Colts & Geldings), the Class 4 race
over 7 furlongs, held at Newmarket.
The son of Giant’s Causeway out of Ladies Cruise moved on to win Betfair Heron Stakes (Listed Race) over 1 mile at Sandown on May 31. The novice colt elegantly finished 8th against 15 rivals in the St James’s Palace Stakes (British Champions Series)
(Group 1) (Entire Colts) of the Royal Ascot event on June 19.
Thus, he is packed with winning impetus that will help him hamper Crackerjack King in their today’s meeting.
Let us enjoy a mind-blowing action at Sandown and see who of the duo turns to be the champion.
