Hat-trick is on cards for Certainly

Lydia Richards only has a small team at her Funtington base, but she does have a star on her hands in the shape of

CERTAINLY RED.

The nine-year-old goes to Wincanton on Thursday for the Dick Hunt Trophy, and is a previous courseand-distance winner, having triumphed here in December.

Since then he has followed up in good style at Kempton, so he comes here on a roll and can complete the hat-trick.

Earlier on that card, Chris Gordon can get in on the act with SAMI BEAR who goes in the handicap hurdle.

He has yet to win in three starts this season, but has been edging closer and wasn’t beaten far over this course and distance last time out when second behind Almost Gotaway.
