Take The Stage has a lot to offer in Novae Bloodstock Insurance Handicap at Newmarket
Speedi Mouse is doing a wonderful job these days, and seems to have decent chances at Newmarket. Elkhart is also brimming with confidence after a recent strike, but will not be welcoming any rain.
The opposite is the case for Junket, who put her campaign on the right track by clinching an easy win at Kempton earlier this month. The aforementioned trio has a lot in favour, but the preference is for Take The Stage, who ran very well at Doncaster last
time.
The 3-year-old returned to action after a break of almost two months. He was awful on his first two starts at Sandown earlier this year, and his confidence would have been badly shaken.
Yet, the Jeremy Noseda-trained showed plenty of promise, when finishing sixth in the Unison "Fair Pensions For All" Maiden Stakes (Div I) on August 4th.
After an improved performance, he should have more to offer in the Novae Bloodstock Insurance Handicap at Newmarket on Friday, August 17, 2012. He has a lot of things in favour at this shorter trip on his handicap cap.
On Newmarket’s good to firm track, there will be 18 runners, competing for a cash prize worth £2,588. The officials are due to start the proceedings at 19:00 GMT.
Junket is all set to make this journey problematic for her rivals. After staying away for a long time, luck eventually came to her at the start of this month, when she surprised everyone by notching the top spot by five lengths in the Jimmy Miller Lifetime
In Racing Handicap (London Mile Qualifier). The conditions are a lot different here, thus one should not trust her blindly.
Elkhart’s case is a bit different. In almost similar conditions, Michael Wigham’s charge beat Nawwaar by a head’s distance in the NSPCC Handicap here last month. Speedi Mouse also did well on good to firm at the start of this month.
Both Elkhart and Speedi Mouse will be very hard to beat, but still Take The Stage is a chance worth taking, as he is fully determined to start his handicap journey on a winning note. Good luck to all the runners.
