Red Square Vodka Gold Cup 16th Feb 2008
The Red Square Vodka Gold Cup at Haydock Park is a tough,
3miles 4 1/2 furlong trip which provides a great indication
for trainers as to which horses will be a threat at the main
horse racing event of the year, the Aintree Grand National.
In last years competition, Ossmoses dug deep to land
trainer Don Forster a nice little payday of £125,000 prize.
This is Haydock's most expensive
race and is eagerly awaited. This years favourite,
Miko De Beauchene is a shortish looking 9/2 to be first past
the post in this twenty four horse race. The horse is
definitely not going to Aintree but he is already a National
winner, having won the Welsh version for Robert Alner at
Chepstow last time out, where he dug deep to overhaul the
gallant Halcon Genelardais in a driving finish Fro those looking
for a bit more value may look down the card at Geeveem,
currently trading at around 7/1. The Paul Nicholls trained
horse has been almost unstoppable this season and whatever
he runs cant be ignored. The eight year old was prone
to mistakes last season but has jumped better in two runs
this season, and he travelled well behind Miko De Beauchene
at Chepstow until his stamina gave out in the closing
stages.
Elsewhere, Point Barrow and Over
the Creek are 8/1 respectively. For those looking for longer
odds, Irish Raptor is available at 14/1 while Captain Corelli can be picked up at 14s.
Irish trainer Arthur Moore can make a successful raid
with King Johns Castle. Having started the season as with a
respectable effort over 2m4f at Navan in December, he
stepped up in trip for a valuable 3m handicap in
Leopardstown last time out and only went down narrowly to
Mister Top Notch a good fourth in the Grade 1 Hennessey
Cognac Gold Cup on Sunday. He looks the type who could
improve further now that he tackles a marathon trip for the
first time and a big run here would set him up nicely for a
shot at the Grand National.
This should be a cracking
race and there are a whole host of free bets for prospective
horse racing punters to use!
