Ahead of the high-stakes competition, we present a brief preview which will help both the bookmakers and the general reader to take an idea of the strength and weakness of the runners.
Following are the key track records of the three top horses who will fill up the first three positions on the results card.
Diamond D ‘Amour
Since bagging his maiden victory on December 18, 2011, George Bewley’s young gelding has been carrying good form. Running as a 4-9 favourite horse, he beat 7 rivals with big margins to earn a splendid triumph.
In his last start on January 7, 2012, the six-year-old gelding fought very well and notched up the second position against five competitors.
Prior to these two races, he had been doing well in his past contests too. Thus, the talented runner seems to be in good form which will surely lend a great hand to him today when he takes on his experienced opponents. He again stands as a hot favourite
for today’s event, having 90 percent chances to finish first.
Sir Boreas Hawk
The trainee of Alan Swinbank has is going to run today after a long gap of more than two years. Since finishing fifth in a race on December 9, 2009, the black gelding has been resting.
During January-February 2007, the veteran runner bagged a couple of consecutive wins. As a whole, he possesses great talent and techniques, but he poses to be much unpredictable at the moment. However, if he manages to run to his best, he has 80 percent
chances to finish second in today’s contest.
Suprise Vendor
Stuart Coltherd’s gelding picked up great momentum by winning a race on December 29, 2011. This victory came after a long gap of five defeats. However, the six-year-old runner failed in his very next outing on January 30, 2012.
As a whole, the veteran gelding has won 4 out of his total 34 starts so far. He is likely to demonstrate a decent run today and finish at least third in the contest.
Conclusion
There will be a tough battle among the above trio today. Each of them will try hard to turn the tables. However, Diamond D ‘Amour is likely to make a big breakthrough. Let us get ready for the action. Good luck to all the runners.
