Rule Book expected to win UBS Stakes (Handicap)
When the high-voltage UBS Stakes (Handicap) over 1 mile and 4 furlongs will start at 3:45 (GMT) on the good track of Goodwood today, August 1, the legendary trainer Richard Hannon’s grey colt, Rule Book, in likely demonstrate winning performance to complete his maiden hat-trick.
In the £24,900 contest, the three-year-old novice runner will compete against 15 worthy rivals. The confident colt experienced such type of race conditions in his last start at Salisbury. That was the Ashbrittle Stud Bibury Cup Stakes (Handicap), held on June 27. He marvellously defeated the hot favourite candidate, Rye House, to win the race.
Prior to this, the talented son of Aussie Rules out of Open Book grabbed the ace title of the Betfred Mobile E B F Maiden Stakes at Sandown on June 16. He stunned the sport fans by beating 11 competitors without the favourite tag.
Debuting on April 21, the Andrew Tinkler owned maverick sprinter elegantly gained the runner-up position in the Folkestone Sports Centre, Ruby Anniversary Maiden Stakes on May 30.
With these four races, the brilliant Irish colt has earned £12,318. At the moment, the Joseph Heavey bred is carrying a lot of winning momentum that will help him have good time in the coming contest.
However, Rule Book will have to face some arduous challenges on his way towards the finish line as Scatter Dice looks to be a strong runner on the card.
The Mark Johnston trained chestnut filly has never stepped out of the podium in her 8-race career so far. After finishing second in her maiden race on January 21, the daughter of Manduro out of Sensation grabbed a third and a runner-up position in the month of February.
During April, the Darley bred fantastic filly nicely accomplished two classic conquests. In her only outing on a good track, she finished as the runner-up.
The young sprinter excellently won Totepool.Com Edinburgh Cup (Handicap) and Battersea Dogs & Cats Home Handicap on June 2 and July 28 respectively.
In this situation, it is predicted that there will be witnessed a fierce battle between Rule Book and Scatter Dice. Let us see who turns to become the champion. Good luck to the duo.
