Quartz De Thaix seeking victory in Majordomo Hospitality Handicap Chase Grade 3
Quartz De Thaix will be chasing a hat-trick of victories in the Majordomo Hospitality Handicap Chase Grade 3 at Cheltenham in England on Friday, December 14, 2012.
He has been delivering some terrific results in this form of racing and will definitely be competitive at the end of the day. His rivals will need to keep an eye on him, as his confidence level is good and might end up dominating the proceedings at the end of the day.
Although, the French challenger is in great rhythm at the moment, yet he will not find things to be easy today. He is up against some fierce competitors and all of them have been preparing hard for this all important contest, scheduled to start at 13:55 GMT.
The overall distance to cover in the class-1 event is 3 miles, 1 furlong and 110 yards which means that speed will not be much important. The key will be to save some energy for the final few yards, which will determine the outcome of the race.
Luckily, the weather has not been that bad at Cheltenham, as it has been raining in most parts of the United Kingdom over the past couple of weeks. The going has been described as good to soft by the organisers, which is not a bad sign for the participants.
Everyone will be looking to push extremely hard today, as the winner will be awarded a cash prize of £25,628 in the end. Moreover, it s always nice to succeed in any graded race compared to a normal one.
Looking at the records of all the stallions, the bookmakers have given the highest odds to Bradley, who has the ability to be highly competitive in chase events. He will definitely get the attention of the bettors, but will be under immense pressure at the moment.
The Fergal O'Brien’s trainee has been unable to deliver expected results over the past couple of races, thus he will have to be at his best today.
Compared to him, Quartz De Thaix has been in much better form, as he was victorious in his previous two outings. He will once again be looking to steal the show under jockey, Aidan Coleman.
