Tough battle predicted in Thursday’s Claydon Racing Stayers at Oxford
With some powerful greyhounds aiming for victory, the bookmakers are anticipating a close contest in the Claydon Racing Stayers, to be held at Oxford on Thursday, March 22, 2012.
The 595 metres flat heat will get underway at 21:20 GMT. The Grade OR event has attracted six speedy runners. Their names are: Mays Millhouse, Chicago Prince, Don Henry, Greenfield Tim, Titainium King and Mall Return.
According to the betting forecast, Mays Millhouse is carrying the highest starting price. Despite the fact that the black dog was below par in his last race, the bookmakers did not lost their confidence in his abilities.
With a lot of determination, G. Ballentine’s trainee will start proceedings from the red box. Although an embarrassing performance last time out would have dented his confidence to some extent, starting the party from the first trap might boost up his morale.
Don Henry is one of the consistent hounds in England. After a couple of back to back wins last month, the black lost a bit of his rhythm. However, nobody can blame him, as he remained unlucky.
In his most recent trip at Hove, the C. Gardiner-trained ended up second by three quarter of a length. Although the track will be different tonight, the dashing runner holds the ability to adapt to the conditions.
Mall Return is also struggling with his form these days. The fawn dog clinched two consecutive wins last month, but this month is yet to witness his class. With none of his rivals in sublime form, today’s race looks a good opportunity for him to get back
to his best.
Chicago Prince is another recent winner, who is likely to attract some punters. His last triumph came on March 08, when he topped the chart by three and a quarter lengths. Greenfield Tim and Titainium King also have capability to do something special.
It will definitely be a tough decision for those interested in betting tonight. Every single hound is in good shape to hammer his rivals.
Our vote goes to Don Henry, who has been consistent over the last few weeks. However, Mays Millhouse and Chicago Prince cannot be overlooked.
