King’s Road on the road to victory – Fund Handicap Preview
King’s Road is on the road to a magnificent victory that will come in the Injured Jockeys Fund Handicap. The race is set to take place at Yarmouth track on Thursday, May 10.
When the action begins at 5:55 (GMT) on the heavy course of 1 mile, 3 furlongs and 101 yards, the Anabel K. Murphy-trained gelding will run against Dzesmin, Cuckoo rock, Visions Of Johanna, Khun John, Royal Defence, Darsan and Rasteau. A prize cheque worth £1,617 is waiting for the supposed winner.
King’s Road has won 3 of his total 32 starts to date. The seven-year-old brilliant horse gained a lot of confidence by finishing first in his last outing on May 3, 2012. Prior to this, the maverick horse had gained a third in a big contest on April 17.
These two epic performances have beautifully put the veteran runner at the top of the betting card. The talented son of King’s Best out of Saphire has been a consistent performer since the very outset of his career.
At the moment, the hot favourite horse is awash with winning momentum that will help him make a big impact in the coming contest. If King’s Road avoids making any error during the race, his chances to finish in the Fund Handicap will be as high as 92 percent.
However, Khun John can cause an upset as the Willie Musson-trained bay gelding has 5 classic triumphs to his name. The veteran horse proceeded to finish 3rd in the subsequent outing on April 21. The nine-year-old talented runner looks to be in an offensive mood.
Cuckoo Rock is also likely to enjoy a great time today. Jonathan Portman’s bay gelding has won just one race in his career so far. However, he has been performing well on various tracks for the last six months.
Though the competition will be tough enough but King’s Road is likely to seal success convincingly. The race will have many twists. Let us enjoy a thrilling and amazing action. Good luck to all the runners.
