William Haigh to bounce back in Mirror Punters Club Handicap at Doncaster
No one was expecting William Haigh to fail after five successive wins, but Alan Swinbank’s charge disappointed his supporters greatly. The 4-year-old got weakened in the final moments and as a result, finished at bottom of the table in the Williamhill.com
Rosebery Handicap at Kempton in March.
After a gap of more than three months, the son of Refuse To Bend is making his way back to the course, aiming to put his journey back on the winning ways in the Class 4 Mirror Punters Club Handicap, to be held at Doncaster on Thursday, July 19, 2012.
Owned by Shropshire Wolves II, the maverick gelding has done well at the higher grades, and it should not be a tough ride for him. He registered three back-to-back triumphs in November-December last year.
Bred by Mrs C. L. Weld, the runner started his 2012 campaign on a high note, winning the Class 3 Play Golf Before Racing At Southwell Handicap in January. Keeping up the good work, he secured a comprehensive win in the Rugby Betting With FreeBetting.co.uk
Handicap at Wolverhampton.
The memories of his glory are still fresh, and the runner just need to do an equally good job to ensure a convincing success in today’s race. He usually likes standard going, but the good to soft surface at Doncaster would not be a concern for him.
A dozen fast and furious contestants are geared up to chase a cash prize of £4,205. The affair is going to be kicked off at 20:30 (GMT).
New Hampshire is likely to get the highest odds, but we are reluctant to recommend him. He surely needs to raise his game in order to beat this line-up. Kenyan Cat is a reliable sort, who should give another good account. However, we only expect her to be
among top-3.
Novirak suffered an embarrassing defeat on his handicap debut, but he is worth another chance in this lesser grade contest.
William Haigh certainly has an obvious chance today. Novirak is determined to redeem his respect, and will be the main danger. We wish the best of luck to all the runners.
