Julius Geezer geared up to win Piper-Heidsieck Handicap (Betfair Sprint Flat Series Qualifier)
Wresting the ace title of the Seddon Property Services Stakes (Handicap) from the jaws of 18 worthy rivals was a big achievement of the Tom Dascombe trained bay gelding Julius Geezer who is carrying abundant confidence and fighting spirit ahead of the Piper-Heidsieck
Handicap (Betfair Sprint Flat Series Qualifier), a Class 4 contest that will be held at Newmarket racecourse on Friday, August 24.
On the good to firm ground of 6 furlongs, the four-year-old veteran horse will run alongside a dozen of strong competitors with his eye on the prize money worth £5,175.
The talented son of Antonius Pius out of Victoria’s Secret has been in full swing since the dawn of the calendar year. On May 28, he elegantly won the Hickling Selling Stakes at Leicester by beating the hot favourite candidate Restless Bay.
The young gelding moved on to finish first in the Steps And Peter Andre Live On Sat 7 July Handicap, held at Hamilton on June 13. This time again, he was a non-favourite runner.
These two stunning upsets made the punters realize that Julius Geezer had a lot of potential and talent under his belt, but they were not yet ready to grant him the favourite tag.
To prove his worth further, the Basing Bellman Stroud owned horse again triggered a big upset by winning the Seddon Property Services Stakes (Handicap). That was indeed a great success.
For the next race named as Professional Footballers' Association Supports TRC Handicap (Div II), Julius Geezer was regarded as the joint favourite candidate who fought hard but could not be able to thrive, finishing 4th in the line-up of 10 runners.
But today, the Ballyhane Stud bred gelding will try his utmost to live up to the expectations of the betting market. The only threat he needs to be wary of is Orbit The Moon who gained a lot of momentum by winning the Tyregiant.com Handicap at Pontefract
on July 29.
Thus, the Michael Dods trained bay colt will show a lot of resilience against Julius Geezer who is likely to defend himself elegantly. Good luck to all the contestants.
