Haydock Sprint Cup 2008

Thankfully Sakhee’s Secret does not run in this years Haydock Betfred Sprint Cup, a Group 1 run over six furlongs for 3 year olds plus. His last two runs have been very disappointing to say the least ! There looks to be something radically wrong with the horse. I would be surprised if we saw him on the racecourse again. In my blog of September 2007 I did discuss and list past winners of the Haydock Sprint since 1966. This years race will be run on heavy ground which will suit Utmost Respect and he is deservedly favourite with the bookmakers. Corryborough (pictured) has been brought along steadily by Henry Candy but this could be a big ask for him. African Rose comes over from France and must command respect but the blogger will be hoping to see Utmost Respect prove the bookmakers right.
