Westmead Maldini to take down Airlie Impact and Loughteen Blanco for winning the Coral Sussex Cup - Final
Droopys Maldini’s four-year-old son made the decisive impact in the first semi-final of the Coral Sussex Cup on 26th July, 2012 at Hove over 515 metres. He remained the centre of attention as he ticked the clock the quickest and the audience awaited the striking of a lower time through the second and third semi-final of the race. Westmead Maldini remained the sharpest when racing through the track distance in 29.91 seconds and winning by the margin of ¾ of a length.
The 4 to 1 entry for the Coral Sussex Final on Tuesday, 31st July, 2012 at Hove over 515 metres flat is all set for mesmerising the crowd again.
This was the second time during the new season that the Nick Savva trained raced at Hove, his first finishing was at the third position in the Coral Sussex Cup Heat – 6 on 19th July, 2012 at Hove.
The race was won by Jazz Apollo in 29.78 seconds.
If the blue son out of, Mega Delight, is thinking that the race tonight will be effortless for him then he should for sure ponder over the though once again.
When winning the first semi-final of the Coral Sussex Cup, the four-year-old was given a hard time by the favourite of the race, Loughteen Blanco. Westmead Maldini had to compose himself after bumping third and then running on for leading.
His rival will share the track with him today and the Seamus Cahill trained is backed by 9 to 4 odds.
The obstacles for winning the final of the Coral Sussex Cup do not end with Loughteen Blanco as the evening’s favourite, Airlie Impact, also needs to be tackled. The two-year-old Paul Young trained was the second quickest against Westmead Maldini as he settled the third semi-final in 30.11 seconds with the margin of 4 ¼ lengths.
The rest of the competitors for the £10,000 prize money include Mark My Words, Holloway Road and Offshore Rebel.
The four-year-old will need to keep a check on the speed, competition and most importantly breaking strongly from the gate. The sluggish break in the semi-final did not hamper the victory but Westmead Maldini might not be that lucky this time.
