Star Head set to shine in Bettor.Com Derby (Heat 3)
Star Head is all set to shine resplendently in the Bettor.Com Northern Irish Derby 550 Round 2 Heat 3 that will be held at Drumbo Park tonight, June 9. The high-voltage Open Race will commence at 21:22 (GMT).
The Macklin-trained black dog will daringly compete against five strong rivals such as Tubbertelly Duke, Lanesdown Pen, Whiterock Prince, Mays Milan and Royal Patrol on the flat course of 550 yards. The event contains €150 in the prize purse.
Star Head has been at the peak of form since the beginning of the calendar year. During March-April 2012, the three-year-old novice runner marvellously accomplished a fabulous hat-trick. He moved on to get a runner-up rank and a third in the subsequent starts.
The dashing dog superbly finished first in his last outing on June 2, gaining a lot of confidence and getting reasonable odds in the betting market.
For tonight’s Heat, the brilliant son of Head Bound out of Three Star Gem looks to be the strongest candidate who will surely show a sterling performance to outpace his rivals.
If Star Head manages to keep his stamina intact, he will have up to 90 percent chances to thrive in the race.
Among the other hounds, Tubbertelly Duke and Lanesdown Pen are likely to do well tonight.
Tubbertelly Duke commenced his career with a classic conquest on December 10, 2011. The A. McCann-trained black dog moved on to grab two epic triumphs in the month of April. He finished 4th in his last outing on June 2.
Thus, the son of Duke Special out of Corporate Group has enough potential to trigger a big upset in any big race.
On the other hand, Lanesdown Pen elegantly achieved two blockbuster victories in April 2012. The McGarry-trained white and fawn dog went on to earn a runner-up rank and a third in his last two starts.
In this situation, there will be a rip-roaring and nail-biting clash tonight. The Bettor.Com’s grand event will attract a number of spectators to the venue. Let us enjoy the amazing action. Good luck to all the six hounds who are set to sizzle.
