训练师Joe Pride对赛马Elle Hudson的前景表示乐观。这匹马在7月14日于纽卡斯尔以60公斤的体重赢得2200米比赛,取得18个月来的首场胜利,骑手为Sam Clipperton[1]。这是Elle Hudson在23场比赛中的第三次胜利[1]。
Pride认为这匹马在周三肯辛顿举办的Nutrien Ag Solutions残障赛(2400米)中将很难被击败[1]。他表示:"这不算多大的进步,它将在较优惠的体重条件下面对几匹稍差的对手"[1]。如果Elle Hudson赢得这场比赛,Pride计划让它在周六兰德威克参加2400米基准78级赛事[1]。
Trainer Joe Pride has declared confidence in Elle Hudson's prospects ahead of Wednesday's Nutrien Ag Solutions Handicap at Kensington, a 2,400-metre race.[1] The backing comes after Elle Hudson secured its first win in 18 months at Newcastle, where it carried 60 kilograms to victory over 2,200 metres on July 14, with jockey Sam Clipperton in the saddle.[1]
Pride views the step up in distance as minimal, stating that "This is not that much of a step-up, he's going to meet a few a bit worse at the weights."[1] This represents Elle Hudson's third victory from 23 career starts.[1] Should the stayer prevail at Kensington, Pride has planned a Saturday outing at Randwick in a 2,400-metre Benchmark 78 race.[1]
