Proud Chieftain confident to win Mediforce.Org Handicap
Proud Chieftain is quite confident to clinch top spot in the Mediforce.Org Handicap that will go down at Sandown racecourse on Friday, June 15. The Class 3 contest over the distance of 1 mile, 2 furlongs and 7 yards will begin at 4:20 (GMT).
The Clifford Lines-trained bay gelding possesses a terrific track record. Of his total 10 starts, he has won 3. The four-year-old experienced horse marvellously accomplished a fabulous hat-trick of victories from July 15 to November 1, 2011.
This outstanding achievement spiked up the victor’s morale to a great extent along with introducing him as a favourite prospect in the betting market.
Unfortunately, the talented runner could not be able to sustain his momentum and struggled badly in the two subsequent starts.
The son of Sleeping Indian out of Skimra got geared up again with the dawn of June 2012 and grabbed a runner-up rank in his last outing at Kempton.
This splendid performance has boosted up his morale again and he is likely to unleash an electric pace in today’s contest.
Proud Chieftain is going to run against four strong competitors such as Aldwick Bay, Greylami, Mountain Range and Chain Of Events. On the soft track of 1 mile, 2 furlongs and 7 yards, he will pursue the prize cheque worth £6,412.
Among the gelding’s rivals, Aldwick Bay is likely to endeavour well for success. The Richard Hannon-trained bay gelding superbly finished first in his second last start on May 7, 2012.
The experienced horse went on to get 5th position against 17 contestants in the subsequent outing on May 16. Overall, he has won 3 of his total 15 starts so far.
Thus, the son of Danehill Dancer out of Josie Doocey looks to be strong enough on the card and he will definitely try to impede Proud Chieftain in the race.
Chain Of Events is too likely to do well today. The Sarah Humphrey-trained gelding finished first against 15 runners in his last outing on May 31, 2012. He too has three triumphs to his name. He can give tough time to both Proud Chieftain and Aldwick Bay.
In this situation, there will be a fierce battle at Sandown. Let us see who carries the day.
