Nippy Nikki to crush competition in the Play Golf At Southwell Apprentice Handicap at Southwell on 17th April, 2012
Nippy Nikki is likely to deliver a solid performance in the Play Golf At Southwell Apprentice Handicap at Southwell on 17th April, 2012. She will compete against Al Shababiya, Carnac, King’s Road, Jonnie Skull and Dunaskin over
1 mile and 6 furlongs for £2,386.
Nippy Nikki, the daughter of Needwood Blade, out of mare Spielbound, has shown great progression this season. Trainer and owner, John Norton’s hard work has been apparent on the track.
The four-year-old stood twelfth among thirteen runners in the AJA Ladies' Grand Finale Handicap (For Lady Amateur Riders) (Div II) at Nottingham on 26th
October, 2011.
She has pleased her connections this season, as she has exhibited her true potential. She finished as a runner-up in the Southwell-racecourse.co.uk Handicap at Southwell on 6th March, 2012.
Mounted by jockey, Paddy Aspell, she fell 1 ¾ lengths short of victory, which was secured by Light The City.
The young runner secured another placed position as she stood third in the Free Betting With FreeBetting.co.uk Median Auction Maiden Stakes at Southwell on 27th March, 2012.
This here is a good opportunity for her to land yet another victory, and for that she got plenty of things going her way, and the most important thing of all is her familiarity with the track.
Carnac, son of Dalakhani, out of mare Traou Mad, may give all the competitors a tough time on the track if he races with motivation and fervour.
He downed a victory in the Great Offers At Southwell-racecourse.co.uk Handicap at Southwell on 27th March, 2012. He stole the show as he defeated, Polly Holder, by a massive difference of 8 lengths.
Ridden by jockey, Shane Kelly, the six-year-old gelding performed in a commendable manner. If he repeats this performance then he will be unstoppable in today’s race.
He finished fifth in the £32 Free At 32Red.com Handicap at the same venue on 3rd April, 2012. This was not his best performance, but the gelding looks in the right form to recover from this setback.
The Alan McCabe trained gelding will break from post number 4, and will be the mount for jockey, Nora Looby.
The odds are tilting in Nippy Nikki’s favour, and her recent performance has stirred interest from the market. Her connections are hoping that she will triumph today.
Carnac is in good form, and he will be willing to crush the competition. He looks in the right form to claim a placed finish.
