Druids Can Tell in for a smooth trip in the salacresracingteam.com Grand National Round 1 Heat 4
The 525 yards hurdle in the form of the salacresracingteam.com Grand National Round 1 Heat 4 will be hosted at Harold’s Cross on Monday 15th October at Harold’s Cross. Taking their chances with the €50 prize money are Illhaveoneben, Offshore Becky,
Minesasmallone, Killoe Dasher, Druids Can Tell and Baran Bally Hi. Not all the entries have their previous few races at Harold’s Cross, rather have paved their way for the contest emerging from different backgrounds.
Majority has been drilled for the challenge tonight, but for some the experience at the open level will be completely new.
Winning two hurdle races over the identical distance, and that too at Harold’s Cross, is the 2 to 1 shot for the race, Druids Can Tell.
The Brennan trained has proved a lot in the very lightly raced season that comprise of only two races. Hometown Boy Nga’s son raced in four Grade T races, and was straight away launched into the open level without any practice at Grade A races.
The dark brindle hound did not disappoint the connections as he is unbeaten in the two career starts.
The blue trap led from the second position, and taking down the competition in the field did not seem to be an obstacle for the two-year-old. It took him 29.41 seconds to complete the trip which the runner-up, All Sensation, missed by a good 8 ½ lengths.
Coming at terms with the third position was the red trap, Hey Julie.
The two-year-old out of, Druids Judicial, carried the winning composure to his next start.
The two-year-old won the Gain Feeds Maiden Hurdle Final on 13th July, 2012 at Harold’s Cross over 525 yards. This time he leashed out of the fourth trap, and took charge of the track from the third spot.
Entered as the favourite, he made it to the other end of the wire in 29.34 seconds. He edged past the runner-up, Killoe Dasher, by a mere half-length.
Despite getting drilled when racing out of the fourth and second trap, Druids Can Tell has drawn the fifth stall, and will race in orange. Racing and winning from this number will be the first time for the two-year-old.
