Looks Like Rain set for a challenging run in Sendrig Construction Handicap
Looks Like Rain will need to prove her mettle in the Sendrig Construction Handicap at Newcastle in England on Wednesday, October 3, 2012. She has been doing a decent job in recent times, but it will be a challenge for her to deliver a strong result on a
rain affected track.
The young filly has been highly competitive since the start of her career, but it will be interesting to see whether she performs to the same level or not at Newcastle. The going has been described as soft, which will demand a lot of hard work and all the
runners will be under some pressure.
However, some of the participants will see this as an opportunity to win a race, as they like running on such kind of a ground. One of them is Luctor Emergo, who has been given the best odds for victory by the bookies. He will definitely get the attention
of the punters, as his past few performances have been really impressive.
The three-year-old gelding has participated in 18 races until now and has managed to succeed in four of them. He cannot be taken lightly under these conditions and his opponents will have to be at their best in order to come anywhere near him.
Out of his four victories, two have come on a track affected by rain. This goes onto show that the Keith Dalgleish’s trainee does not have any issues with such conditions and will be a tough nut to crack at the end of the day. He finished as a runner up
in his most recent outing, thus his confidence level will be high.
Looks Like Rain will be a touch worried about the current situation, but she has the ability to be competitive. She will enter the race with a starting price of 13 to 2 and her fans will be expecting a strong run from her.
However, the Brian Ellison’s trained filly has the knack of choking under pressure. She has won just once in her career whereas finished as a runner up on three occasions. In addition to that, she secured the third place on a couple of times. Most of these
good results came under normal circumstances and her nerves will be tested today.
