The aforementioned high profile battalion tells the story that how difficult it is for the punters to pick one horse to put their money on. Let’s make their job slightly easy by making a statistical analysis.
Knock A Hand is coming into this contest after completing his hat-trick of victories. His winning journey started off on November 2, when the seven-year-old gelding sealed a classy win in the Spiffing Crabbie's
Alcoholic Ginger Beer Maiden Hurdle at Chepstow.
Perpetuating his great work, Richard Lee’s trainee showed superb show both in digibet.com "National Hunt" Novices' Hurdle, and TurfTV.co.uk "Fixed Brush" Novices' Hurdle. He is in sublime form at the moment,
and it will be extremely tough for others to knock him down.
Despite Knock A Hand’s current form, he cannot be declared clear favourite, as Deireadh Re, will be a huge threat to him.
Knock A Hand, has completed his hat-trick of triumphs, and the latter is just one step away from achieving same feat.
The six-year-old gelding registered two back to back wins last year, and is running for the first time in 2012. His latest success came on the Boxing Day, when he overshadowed, Shoreacres, in the Pertemps Network
Handicap Hurdle (Series Qualifier).
Paul Nicholls’ horse is making his first race after a gap of almost two months, but that cannot be termed as his weak point.
Gullinbursti, is also having a good time these days. The seven-year-old colt recoded three consecutive wins by the end of 2011.
In his fresh outing that he made on January 28, he finished second on the chart. He was not fluent in the Albert Bartlett Novices' Hurdle, but that does not take anything away from him.
Prediction
The trio of Knock A Hand, Deireadh, and Gullinbursti, is likely to generate massive entertainment tonight.
Among these three, Knock A Hand has the highest chances to thrive, following his forceful performances recently. Let’s get ready for the thrilling action.
