Head Of Steam to bounce back in Betfair Boosts Prize Money At Leicester Handicap
Head Of Steam will be looking to return in form during the Betfair Boosts Prize Money At Leicester Handicap at Leicester in England on Tuesday, September 11, 2012. He is a very good runner, but things have not been going well in his favour over the past
few events, which is not a positive sign for him.
However, the American stallion is capable of bouncing back to form and he will be looking to break the shackles today. A victory will earn him a cash prize of £6,663 from the class-3 event, which is scheduled to start at 16:50 GMT.
A total of 10 contestants have been confirmed for the 7 furlong 9 yard race, which will definitely be a treat to watch for the spectators at Leicester. Furthermore, the going has been described as good to firm by the organisers, which means that the weather
has been perfect for racing.
Common Touch is carrying the winning momentum right now and it will be difficult for others to match his class at this level. He has been given the best odds for victory today, but his performances in recent times have not been consistent, which will put
some doubts in the minds of the punters.
On the other hand, Head Of Steam will enter the race with a starting price of 11 to 2 and he too is considered to be a contender for winning at Leicester. A good start will give him some confidence and a chance to finish at the top of the table today.
The five-year-old gelding has been around for quite some time now, as he debuted in 2009. He took part in three contests back then and was quite impressive in them. He finished first in a couple of them whereas secured the third spot once that year.
The Amanda Perrett’s trainee was in good flow and managed to win one more race next year, but things started going bad for him afterwards. He has not finished first for the past couple of seasons and will need a strong effort to break the shackles. His partner
Eddie Ahern will be looking to use all his experience in order to guide him to the top once again.
