Red Mercury leads market for Selling Stakes
Red Mercury holds top position on the betting card for Betfred Bonus Bingo Selling Stakes, a high-voltage Class 6 contest that is going to take place at Ripon racecourse on Saturday, April 28. The action will commence at 4:05 (GMT).
To cover the given distance of 1 mile, 1 furlong and 170 yards on the soft track, the Ollie Pears-trained young gelding will run against 10 competitors that include Commander Veejay, Iulus, Ollon, Praxios, What’s The Point, Spin A Wish, Srimenanti, April
Leyf, Mrs Awkward and Stars Legacy.
A prize cheque of £2,264 is ready for the supposed winner.
Red Mercury started his career in September 2010. He went on to break his maiden on June 24, 2011. Since then he has been winless to date.
However, the brilliant horse delivered some impressive performances during the last two months of 2011. From November 12 to December 21, he finished 3rd in each of the three consecutive races.
Now, the hot favourite gelding is looking to register the second success of his career by winning the Selling Stakes.
If Red Mercury manages to capitalise well on his capabilities, his chances to thrive will be up to 85 percent.
Among the other runners, What’s The Point and April Leyf are likely to have good times in the coming contest as each one of this duo is strong enough on the card.
What’s The Point staged his debut on May 23, 2011 and finished 7th in his maiden outing. The Ollie Pears-trained gelding proceeded to earn a runner-up rank on March 9, 2012. The four-year-old talented horse finished 3rd in his last
start on April 17.
On the other hand, April Leyf grabbed 4th position in her last start on April 10, 2012. Mark Brisbourne’s bay filly is looking to break her maiden in today’s marathon.
Come what may, Red Mercury will be able to seal success convincingly. The race will have many twists and turns. Let us enjoy an amazing action in the weekend’s thriller. Good like to all the contestants.
