Spot The Ball favourite for Judy Sidgwick, Jump Racing´s Number 1 Fan Handicap Chase
Only five runners have been attracted towards the Judy Sidgwick, Jump Racing´s Number 1 Fan Handicap Chase at Folkestone in England on Tuesday, December 4, 2012.
They are all pretty decent runners and will look to entertain the spectators at the venue. They will not have to deal with the wet conditions, as the going has become good in the class-5 competition.
There were quite a few wet patches on the track in the morning, but things kept on getting better with the passage of time.
At the moment, all of the participants seem to be ready for the 3 mile, 1 furlong contest, which is scheduled to kick off at 15:00 GMT. Stamina will definitely be the key and the starting positions will not make a big difference at the end of the day.
All of the contestants will give their best shot, as the one who succeeds will be given a cash prize of £2,053 in the end.
Spot The Ball has been rated as the outright favourite to succeed in today’s race, as his performances over fences have been really impressive. Although, his strike rate is not on the higher side, yet he has managed to deliver good results with consistency.
The seven-year-old gelding has been given a general starting price of 15 to 8, which clearly suggests that he is expected to be dominant. He will definitely get the attention of the punters, as they will be looking to win some easy money at the end of the
day.
The Jonjo O'Neill’s trainee has entered seven chase contests, winning one of them whereas secured the third spot on the same number of times. In addition to that, he has finished as a runner up on three occasions, which shows that he likes running in this
format.
On the other hand, Guydus will also be the one to watch out for in the race, as she is highly talented. She is carrying the winning momentum right now, thus her confidence level will be good.
Overall, the Venetia Williams’ trained mare has entered 13 races over fences and managed to win just twice. She has enjoyed the company of Harry Challoner throughout her career and will once again be partnered by him today.
