Hill Street likely to upset Robin Hoods Bay in 32Red Handicap
Hill Street will look to continue his decent run of form in the 32Red Handicap at Lingfield in England on Monday, December 10, 2012. He does not have a lot of experience, but is not short of confidence.
Therefore, the young challenger will be looking forward to a strong run in the class-3 contest, scheduled to kick off at 14:10 GMT. A victory will earn him a cash prize of £6,663 at the end of the day.
However, he will have to weather the storm from several other runners, who will not make life easy for him. All of them have the ability to deliver a positive result over 1 mile and 2 furlongs.
Moreover, the conditions will allow everyone to push to the limit, as the weather has remained dry at Lingfield. Due to this, the going has remained standard and there will be no issues for the contestants.
Robin Hoods Bay has managed to get the attention of the bookmakers, despite the fact that his strike rate is not an impressive one. His recent performances have been decent though, which will definitely help him attract more bets from the punters.
The young challenger has been given a general starting price of 9 to 4 and it will be interesting to see whether he lives up to the expectations of his team or not.
Overall, the four-year-old gelding has succeeded in three events out of 14 attempts, which shows that he is not consistent, when it comes to winning races. However, he has finished as a runner up on the same number of times and secured the third spot once,
proving that he has the potential to challenge for victories.
In his most recent race at Lingfield, the Ed Vaughan’s trainee was rated as the favourite to succeed, but failed to meet the expectations of the bookies. He will look to make an improvement this time around in order to make amends.
However, Hill Street will not make life easy for him at all. He was victorious in his previous race, so his confidence level is good right now. His victory came at Lingfield under jockey, William Buick, but his partner today will be Robert Havlin.
