Valbchek tipped to prevail in Jersey Stakes
Valbchek has got a solid chance of winning the Jersey Stakes (Group 3) at Ascot in England on Wednesday, June 20, 2012. The winner of the class-1 event will bag a cash prize of £39,697.
The going will be good in the 7 furlong race, which is scheduled to start at 14:30 GMT. Following entries have been confirmed for the event: Sentaril, Aljamaaheer, Reply, Valbchek, Ishvana, Sovereign Debt, Swiss Spirit, Boomerang Bob, Producer, Red Duke,
Justineo, Telwaar, Bannock, Eastern Sun, Lethal Force, Ptolemaic, Redact, Talwar, Laffan, Rebellious Guest, Solar Deity, Ewell Place and Lady Gorgeous.
There is a doubt over the participation of Fort Bastion, who could have brought up his third consecutive victory in the sport. He was in good form and could have attracted a few bets in his favour.
Looking at the overall statistics of the runners, the competition seems to be a tough one. However, the track conditions might suit Valbchek more than anyone else, thus he will be the one to watch out for in the end. He does not have a lot of experience,
but his record is impressive, which will encourage the punters to place a lot of bets on him.
The three-year-old colt has participated in a couple of races, winning both of them. He will be chasing a hat-trick of victories today, thus there will be some pressure on him.
The Jeremy Noseda’s trainee was rated as the favourite to win his first ever race and he lived up to the expectations of everyone in the end. He was completely dominant and won by almost three lengths. He was given a tough time in his second appearance,
but he still prevailed by half a length.
Things will be a touch difficult for Valbchek today, as the level of competition is quite high. However, he has the tools to deliver something special. He will be partnered by seasoned jockey, Ryan Moore, who has won quite a few races at this level. He is
a consistent rider and his strike rate is impressive at this level.
Another runner, who has performed extremely well at this level, is Sentaril. She has the skills to give a tough time to Valbchek and other rivals in the race.
