Vinnie My Boy chasing hat-trick in Weatherbys Foreign Exchange "National Hunt" Novices´ Hurdle
Vinnie My Boy will be looking to record a hat-trick of victories in the sport by claiming the Weatherbys Foreign Exchange "National Hunt" Novices´ Hurdle at Kempton in England on Monday, November 5, 2012. He is young and inexperienced, but is loaded with immense talent and has the ability to do well at this level.
A total of 11 runners have lined up for action in the class-4 encounter and some of them have really been performing well for their respective teams. Therefore, the competition is going to be a tough one in the end.
Stamina will be the key, as the overall distance to cover for all the participants will be 2 miles and 5 furlongs. There will be added pressure on them, as the going has been described as good to soft because of some overnight rain.
It will not be easy t walk away with a victory at Kempton and the runner who wants to finish at the top will really have to earn it. The action is going to kick off at 13:30 GMT and the triumphant stallion will be awarded a cash prize of £3,899 in the end.
Amongst so many talented contestants, Foundation Man will also be looking for his maiden victory in the sport. He does not have the experience, but that will not matter much, as he is a confident performer.
The five-year-old gelding has appeared in just one race over hurdles and he did an impressive job in it. Despite not being rated as the favourite back then, he managed to secure the third spot.
However, the Jonjo O'Neill’s trainee will have to work extremely hard in order to claim the top spot under A. P. McCoy.
On the other hand, Vinnie My Boy has got a pretty decent record and his confidence level will be high. He will definitely get the attention of the punters and will look to meet the expectations of everyone.
However, the Peter Bowen’s trainee has never appeared in a race over hurdles in the past, which might go against him at the end of the day. He has won his previous two events though and appears to be in pretty good shape, which will give hop to his fans. His partner in the race will be Jamie Moore.
