Yesyoucan likely to excel in Haydock Park Rio Carnival Christmas Parties Handicap Hurdle
Yesyoucan has got a very good chance of winning the Haydock Park Rio Carnival Christmas Parties Handicap Hurdle in England on Wednesday, October 31, 2012. Most of his opponents have been struggling for form over the past few months, which will make things a bit tricky at the end of the day.
Stamina will be the key in the 2 mile 4 furlong event, which is scheduled to start at 15:55 GMT. The conditions will be testing, as rain has affected the ground at Haydock to some extent.
The going has been described as good to soft by the organisers and they will be hoping that rain stays away from the venue for the rest of the day. The winner of the class-4 contest will be awarded a cash prize of £3,249 in the end.
A lot of skill is required to do well in races over hurdles, thus the competition will be an interesting one today. Even a single mistake could prove to be too costly at the end of the day.
According to the bookies, Semi Colon has got a very good chance of shining at Haydock, despite the fact that she does not have a very good record in this form of racing. She has been given a general starting price of 5 to 1 and will be looking to live up to the expectations of everyone in the end.
However, the six-year-old mare might not manage to get the attention of the bettors, as her overall record is not an attractive one. She has only managed to succeed in one race over hurdles, which is not a positive sign for her team.
In 2012, the Nicky Henderson’s trainee has been unable to make a solid impression in any of her outing, thus there will be immense pressure on her.
However, this will give a solid opportunity to someone like Yesyoucan, who has participated in limited events, despite making his debut back in 2010.
The seven-year-old gelding has been delivering some decent results during the ongoing season and he will definitely be fighting for the top-three positions today. He has enjoyed the company of Danny Cook and the same jockey will be alongside him at Haydock.
