Killieford Khali expected to win Betfred Standard Trophy
By winning two big open races during the last month, Killieford Khali summed up immense momentum. Considering the C. Lister trained black dog as a reliable commercial icon, the punters have granted him the 11-10 favourite tag for tonight’s high-stakes race
of the Betfred Standard Trophy that will take place at Nottingham.
Breaking from Trap 5, the two-year-old novice hound will warm up his heels over the distance of 500 metres. The race has £200 in the prize purse.
The son of Hondo Black out of Quare Deal has proved his class in various formats of the game. Moreover, he has experienced different sort of race conditions. These things have made him a strong runner who can collide with any big adversary.
The brilliant young sprinter’s profile shows triumphs and runner-up positions predominantly. This is the reason the bettors do not hesitate to rely on him.
The skilled runner’s OR record is superb as well. He always feels comfortable in this format of the game. In his first open race contest, he finished third. That was the Bettor.com Standard Div 2, held on April 13.
The enthusiastic runner’s first OR triumph came on July 30 when he beat the hot favourite candidate, Watch Kitty, by a narrow margin to finish first in the Stadium Bookmakers Puppy 480m Trophy.
After winning a T2 race by 7 lengths on October 4, Killieford Khali nicely sealed top spot by 3 lengths in Sheffield Stadium 480 Puppy of October 23.
The dog’s class was applauded well when he brought home the title of The Magners Puppy Standard Trophy on the 29th.
This is all what Killieford Khali has achieved at just the threshold of his career. If he manages to sustain the momentum he has started with, he will be able to set some excellent records in the months to come.
Lister carefully selects races for the dog and gives him proper time to rest and restore his energy. This strategy augurs well for the runner.
Let us enjoy tonight’s meeting and watch the way Killieford Khali outplays his rivals to thrive. Good luck to him.
