尼沙姆依旧看好「尤塞恩老板」实力

尽管「尤塞恩老板」在出道战上表现非常糟糕,但是其练马师安娜贝尔·尼沙姆依旧对它的实力怀有信心。

今年早些时候的一场非正式试闸中,「尤塞恩老板」 赢得非常轻松,这使得它在出道战,即上个月在考菲尔德赛马场举行的默森库珀锦标赛上颇受赌市看好,夺冠赔率仅为5倍,可最后它却令所有人失望了。在那场途程1000米的表列赛上,它获得了10匹赛驹中的倒数第一名,输了15个马位之多。

和罗伯·阿奇博尔德合伙练马的尼沙姆坦言,通常在马匹有如此糟糕的首秀后,她会选择让其直接开始休假,但这次她决定让「尤塞恩老板」继续参赛,因为她看好「尤塞恩老板」的反弹。 

"我不知道发生了什么,因为它在非正式试闸中表现特别好,而且它是一匹很漂亮的赛驹,"尼沙姆表示。 

"它在直道上看起来就像一个醉汉。我当时甚至以为它受伤了。当天场地条件恶化得厉害,所以也许是场地问题。"

"但它的实力远不止于此。" 

尼沙姆的团队将「尤塞恩老板」带回悉尼后,该驹在训练中也表现出了让人欣慰的状态。 

尼沙姆决定冒险让它再次参赛,最有可能的目标是本周六在兰德威克赛马场举行的库尔摩尔盾赛(1000米),但一个不利的闸位也可能会让团队考虑推迟一周。 

"通常遇到这样的情况我会让它开始休假,但我们将它带回悉尼后,它在训练中一直表现出色,"尼沙姆说。 

"我觉得我们可以让它再跑一次,因为如果它果真这么不堪,那就太糟糕了,借此我们可以看看它能否反弹,展现出我们预期中的水准。"
