First In Command will be running for his hat-trick in the Free Online Casinos At Freebetting.co.uk Handicap
Southwell will be hosting the Free Online Casinos At Freebetting.co.uk Handicap today, on 27th March, 2012, where 10 runners will be competing for £1,704 over the standard 5 furlong course.
First In Command is the favourite with the odds of 6 to 4, who will be racing against Lesley’s Choice, Ever Roses, Sandwith, Slatey Hen, Chosen One, Bookiesindex Boy, Fashion Icon, Bird Dog and The Magic Of Rio.
First In Command is trained by Daniel Mark Loughnane for owner, Mrs. C. Loughnane, both of whom are pleased with how the seven-year-old gelding is performing. With two victories already in the bag, First In Command will complete his hat-trick if he
succeeds today.
The familiarity with the track serves as a benefit as his previous victories materialised here. Teamed with jockey Shane Kelly, the son of Captain Rio, out of mare Queen Sigi, triumphed over race favourite, Argentine by a marginal difference of ½
a length in the Cheltenham Festival Free Betting With Freebetting.co.uk Handicap at Southwell on 13th March, 2012.
Under Kelly’s guidance, he tracked the leaders and made smooth progress, gaining speed in the final furlong and crossing the wire first.
His victory continued into the Dine In The Pantry Handicap at Southwell on 20th
March, where he raced as a favourite with the odds of 5 to 6, and succeeded over, The Magic Of Rio, by 2 ¼ lengths. He gained pace in the last 100 yards, crossing the wire at a safe distance. Racing with Kelly again, the gelding is looking to claim a
solid finish this race.
Lesley’s Choice, trained by Paul Rich for owner L.M. Power, may make a comeback in this race. This race will be the seasonal debut for the six-year-old gelding, who last competed in the Totequadpot Handicap on 13th December,
2011, at Southwell. Under jockey Adam Kirby, he finished thirteenth in a line-up of fourteen runners. He chased the leaders halfway, but then showed signs of exhaustion and could not keep up the pace.
He will be entering today’s race with the odds of 4 to 1, where he will be coupled with Kirby again, hoping to improve his position this time.
The speculation is that, First In Command, will take the lead, but he may be challenged by Lesley’s Choice, given he races with all his might. First In Command looks more promising and his recent victories have given his connections more confidence
about his ability to win.
