Ena Sharples favourite for Jeff And Margaret Smith Memorial Nursery
Ena Sharples has got an opportunity of causing an upset in the Jeff And Margaret Smith Memorial Nursery at Pontefract in England on Monday, October 8, 2012. She has been doing a decent job for her team in recent times and her confidence level will be high
at the moment.
However, things will not be easy for the young filly and there will be some pressure on her. The punters will be a touch hesitant to risk money on her, as she is a touch inconsistent. Despite that, the bookies have got faith in her abilities, thus they have
given her a general starting price of 9 to 1.
Speed will be crucial in today’s race and the stallions will need to start well, as the overall distance to cover will be just 6 furlongs. The winner of the class-4 contest will be awarded a cash prize of £3,429.
According to the bookies, the best chances of victory appear to be with Steer By The Stars, as she is a consistent performer. She has been given a general starting price of 4 to 1 and the punters will be interested in risking a lot of bets on her.
The two-year-old filly has participated in a total of seven events, winning one of them whereas finished third on the same number of times. In addition to that, she has also secured the runner up position on three occasions, which means that she only dropped
out of the top two on a couple of times.
The Mark Johnston’s trainee finished second in her most recent outing, thus her confidence level will be high.
However, Ena Sharples will be trying her best to spoil the party for the favourite runner, as she is in great rhythm right now. She performed brilliantly in her previous outing and secured the top spot by a neck distance in the end. She was not rated as
the favourite to succeed, but surprised one and all in the end.
The David Nicholls’ trainee has raced in six events until now, winning a couple of them. Other than that, she has mostly struggled to be competitive, which is not a good sign for her team. She has enjoyed a good partnership with Adrian Nicholls, who will
once again be partnering her today.
