Contender Ebor Wager Drifts to 10-1 from Initial 40s, Team Claims Race Strategy Has Been Long-Planned
Fleetfoot Tipped for Ebor Victory as York's Racing Conditions Remain Favourable
The final day of York's Ebor meeting is approaching, and the weather is shaping up to be ideal for the races. With highs of 19C and less wind compared to previous days, the conditions are set to be perfect for the horses and spectators alike.
The track was watered overnight to preserve the racing conditions, and the ground remains good to firm, good in places. The track's clerk of the course, William Derby, is thrilled with the feedback and delighted with the ground's performance.
The £500,000 handicap, the Sky Bet-sponsored highlight at 3.35, will see the Jim Bolger-trained Fleetfoot in competition. Tom Segal, a Racing Post tipster, tipped Fleetfoot in his Pricewise column on Friday night, causing his odds to shorten from a general 33-1 to 16-1. On Saturday, Fleetfoot was backed into 10-1, having been available at 40-1 on Friday.
Fleetfoot's impressive form is undeniable, having won two of his last three starts, with an impressive success at Gowran Park as his latest win. His owner, Jackie, co-owns him with former jockey-turned-bloodstock agent Freddy Tylicki, who has spoken highly of Fleetfoot's chances in the Ebor. Tylicki believes that Fleetfoot has a strong chance of giving his veteran trainer, Jim Bolger, a first win in York's Sky Bet-sponsored highlight.
The Ebor market is headed by the Willie Mullins-trained pair Hipop De Loire and Ethical Diamond at 4-1 and 6-1 respectively. However, Fleetfoot's shortened odds suggest that he is a serious contender for the win.
Unfortunately, not all horses will be competing due to various issues. Ten Bob Tony is a non-runner in the 3.00 race due to going issues, while Exclamation is a non-runner in the 4.45 race due to pulling a shoe off.
Overall, the final day of York's Ebor meeting is shaping up to be an exciting one, with Fleetfoot being a strong contender in the Sky Bet-sponsored highlight. Let's hope for a thrilling race and a well-deserved victory for the Jim Bolger-trained runner.
