Round The Horn to buzz at Chepstow – Novices’ Chase Preview
Jim Old’s young gelding, Round The Horn, looks to be in a favourable position to make a mark in Lewis Civil Engineering Novices’ Chase which is set to be held at Chepstow horseracing course on Saturday, February 25.
The Class 4 race of 3m distance has a huge prize money worth of £2,599.
There are total 5 entries on the card including Golden Chieftain, Roalco De Farges, Teaforthree, Minella Stars and Round The Horn.
With Round The Horn standing at top of the betting list, Roalco De Farges and Minella Stars are expected to grab first and second positions respectively.
Below is a brief statistical analysis of each of the favourite trio:
Round The Horn
Though it has been at least seven years since he made his debut, but the veteran gelding has run for merely 10 times. His first ever victory came in his very maiden race on January 27, 2005.
After a long lean patch, the talented runner staged a strong comeback and won two back-to-back contests during February 2011. He finished second in his last outing on March 7.
Thus, the gelding possesses immense talent which is why she has been regarded as the hot favourite for today’s event. He has 90 percent chances to finish first.
Roalco De Farges
Philip Hobbs’ gelding has also 10 races to his credit. After bagging his maiden victory in April 2011, he went on to win the second race of his career in the month of November.
In his last two outings during January 2012, he finished 3rd and 6th. Currently, the gelding is enjoying enough form which will help him thrive today. He is likely to stand second.
Minella Stars
The champion trainer Paul Nicholls’ black gelding registered a fabulous hat-trick by winning consistently from February 2010 to January 2011. Moreover, he has  been performing well for last four months.
After finishing 3rd each in two races during November-December 2011, she achieved second spot in his last outing on January 21, 2012. In today’s contest, he is likely to finish 3rd.
Conclusion
There is anticipated to be a tough battle among these three runners at Chepstow. The race will be packed with thrill. Let us see who gains what. Good luck to all the runners.
