On My Own, Owennacurra Milan joint favourites for Saturday’s Goresbridge Handicap Hurdle
Goresbridge Handicap Hurdle is likely to produce a lot of drama at Gowran Park in Ireland on Saturday, March 10, 2012. According to the schedule, the 2-mile meeting is due to get underway at 15:20 (GMT).
With only a few hours left in the action, Bettor.com comes up with an exclusive preview. This article will be quite helpful for those interested in betting this weekend. On a soft ground, twenty rampant contestants will pursue a cash prize of €6,900.
Among the entries are: On My Own, Owennacurra Milan, Luke´s Benefit, Mount Welcome, Buck Breeze, Seventy Three, Tequila Lord, Gentle Paddy, Rowanville Lady, Seldom Fed, Sarsfields Legend, Treat Yourself, City Line, Might Be Magic, Offside Rule, Bad Cigar,
Cloch Mor, Drishogue Boy, Lucks Certain and Maid Of Malabar.
With such a talented line-up, it is quite hard to forecast any result.
On My Own is worth considering, as the eight-year-old is coming into this competition after a classy victory.
On February 19, the gelding was a treat to watch, as he outplayed his rivals to seal first position in the Martinstown Opportunity Handicap Hurdle at Navan.
Philip Fenton’s trainee was a bit rusty earlier this year, but a comprehensive success in a crucial meeting would have boosted up his confidence significantly.
Owennacurra Milan is also full of spirits after a recent success. The punters don’t need much of a memory to recall his fresh winning performance, as he stunned Thurles’ audience in the Tipperary (Lady Riders) Handicap Hurdle at the start
of this month.
Although the line-up includes many dangerous runners, Miss Mary Louise Hallahan’s seven-year-old has an obvious chance.
Luke's Benefit is also stepping in with a decent performance under his belt. The 10-year-old emerged as runner-up in Prime Beef Handicap Hurdle at Thurles last month.
Mount Welcome wasted a mega opportunity of winning, when he fell just before the finish line during Suir (Q.R.) Handicap Hurdle at Clonmel on Feb 16.
Conclusion
Mount Welcome is among our shortlisted contenders alongside the consistent, Luke´s Benefit. However, today’s meeting looks a clash between On My Own and Owennacurra Milan.
Both participants are confident after their recent victories, and it will be a tug of war between them. It is going to be an awe-inspiring clash, no matter who grabs victory. Good luck to all runners.
