Weatherby Superstar Sprint Odds
The Weatherby Superstar sprint odds over 5 furlongs at Newbury this weekend could easily fall to the in form trainer, Richard Hannon, who is likely to have five horses in the race. They will be headed by Penny's Gift, who was runner up to Jim Bolger's Cuis Ghaire last month in the Albany Stakes over six furlongs, at Royal Ascot. It was a great performance form Penny's Gift as Cuis Ghaire is a highly rated sprinter. The Newbury sprint, worth over a £140,0000 will be a return for her to five furlongs a distance that she will relish.
The race is a favourite for the Marlborough trainer who has won it no less than six times since it was first run in 1991. Hannon said that the opposition would have a hard job of beating her off 8st.
.One danger to her could be the Brian Smart trained Visterre, Smart has already saddled one winner of this race and know what it takes to win. Smart, who trains out of Hambleton won the race in 1999 with Don Puccini. He is hoping that the ground will not ride to slow as Visterre is a very speedy horse who got off the mark at Musselborough last month after a disappointing run at Carlisle. She ran very green at Musselborough but still managed to win and she comes to the race in fine form. Smart said that the race is the sort that anything could win but the track and conditions at Newbury should suit her perfectly.

We however are going to stick with Penny's Gift who is clearly one of the class horses in the race, she may start favourite at around 2/1 but this should not deter backers who should look to back her ante post. Visterre can be backed currently at 13/1.
