11-1 Commander can take charge over longer trip.Today's bets Imperial Commander 2.55 Haydock 1pt win at 11-1 with Coral WITH Kauto Star Kauto Star (born 19th March 2000) is a French bred National Hunt racehorse, who is currently trained by Paul Nicholls in England. After a successful beginning to his jumping career in France, Kauto Star (pronounced "Kor-toe") has had an extremely successful career in England. , Zaynar and Voy Por Ustedes all in action today, we are in for a treat. Whether there is a betting edge in any of the races those three superstars are involved in is a different matter, but I think Kauto may struggle on the dire ground at Haydock and make him by far the most likely of the trio to get beaten. The ground is going to be very testing and all Kauto fans should be hoping for more rain to loosen up underfoot conditions and make it easier to get through. If the ground is holding , I thirnk Kauto is half the horse we have come to expect. Do you remember Aintree two seasons ago, when he was sluggish throughout on his reappearance and got beaten by Monet's Garden, and in this race last year, when he would have struggled to beat Snoopy Snoopy world’s most famous beagle. [Comics: “Peanuts” in Horn, 542] See : Dogs Snoopy imaginative dog. [Comics: “Peanuts” in Horn, 542–543] See : Illusion Loopy and Tamarinbleu had he not fallen? If he runs like that here he will not beat this strong-looking field. The obvious alternative is Notre Pere père n. 1. Used after a man's surname to distinguish a father from a son: Dumas père primarily wrote novels, while dramas occupied Dumas fils. 2. , who relishes soft ground and who improved and improved all last season. He was travelling really strongly when coming down at Down Royal recently, and if he is ever going to beat Kauto Star it will be today. But Haydock is a sharp track these days and I'm not certain it is going to be his cup of tea. Paul Nicholls Paul Nicholls (born Paul Greenhalgh on 12 April 1979) is an English actor. His earliest role was in the BBC drama Earthfasts, but it was his character of Joe Wicks in EastEnders, which he played from 1996 to 1997, that first brought him fame. described it as a motorbike track last season and Notre Pere is an old-fashioned staying chaser who may be in top gear from the start. Madison Du Berlais is a hugely underrated horse who, in my book, was the second-best staying chaser in Britain behind Kauto Star. If he's cherry-ripe he's got claims, but he doesn't always put his best foot forward first time out and I wonder whether he's being teed up for a crack at Kauto in the King George King George has referred to many kings throughout history. When used, by Americans, without further reference it most often means George III of the United Kingdom, against whom the Whigs of the American Revolution rebelled. . That doesn't leave many, and as good a chaser as Halcon Genelardais is, it would be surprising to see him win this, despite having a good record fresh and liking the ground. So that only leaves Imperial Commander - and at 11-1 I reckon he's the value. Yes he has to prove he stays 3m, but the manner in which he won the Paddy Power on testing CAPTION(S): Imperial Commander: can prove doubters wrong over 3m |
