Lesley’s Choice VS Italian Tom: A battle for the Anniversary Handicap title
There is anticipated to be a stern punch-up between Lesley’s Choice and Italian Tom for the grand title of the Performance PR 10th Anniversary Handicap, a high-stakes Class 4 contest that will go down at Sandown racecourse on Thursday, June 7.
The event will commence at 6:50 (GMT).
On the soft track of 5 furlongs and 6 yards, the Lesley’s Choice and Italian Tom will run besides a dozen of contestants including Rowe Park, Fair Value, Solemn, Expose, Slip Sliding Away, Signifer, Bouncy Bouncy, Church Music, Macdillon, Alpha Delta Whisky,
Desert Strike and Ashpan Sam.
Each one of Lesley’s Choice and Italian Tom is h**l-bent to finish first in the race.
Lesley’s Choice possesses a terrific track record. The Paul Rich-trained bay gelding has won 12 of his total 53 starts so far.
Since the dawn of 2012, the six-year-old veteran sprinter has accomplished some outstanding feats. After getting a runner-up rank on March 27, the maverick runner finished 2nd again in the very next race on April 4.
From April 19 to May 14, the brilliant son of Lucky Story out of Wathbat Mtoto excellently accomplished three back-to-back triumphs. He was 13-8 favourite for his last start.
The gelding will strive hard to add fourth straight success to his career chart when he lands into Sandown park.
On the other hand, Italian Tom is on the verge of a hat-trick at the moment. The Ronald Harris-trained bay horse superbly gained a triumph each on May 12 and 19.
Prior to these classic feats, the experienced sprinter had gained a runner-up rank on February 29. He also bagged a third on March 14.
As a whole, the son of Le Vie Dei Colori out of Brave Cat has won 11 of his total 50 starts so far.
In this situation, there is likely to be a nail-biting clash at Sandown. The would-be amazing event will attract a big crowd along with drawing a huge bankroll. Let us go for the charged action. Good luck to all the contestants who will entertain their fans
today.
