Destiny calling at Doncaster

Published on Friday 6 November 2009 22:59

KINGS Destiny is out to gain reward for his consistency with victory in the totesport.com November Handicap at Doncaster today.

The three-year-old, trained by Michael Jarvis, has yet to finish out of the first four in his ten career starts, winning three times and finishing second on four occasions.

He will also try to continue the good recent record of horses of his age group, who have been successful three years out of the last five.

"He will love the ground and the trip, and the track ought to suit," said Jarvis' assistant Roger Varian.

"The draw (13) could be better, it could be worse. He's a very consistent horse. It's always a pleasure to have horses like that in the yard, who always do their best. He's genuine, consistent, and improving I think."

The only other three-year-old in the line-up is Stormy Weather and his trainer Howard Johnson is hoping to help Frederik Tylicki clinch the apprentice title. Tylicki, attached to Richard Fahey's stable, has been involved in a closely-fought duel with David Probert in the race for the title.

"Our horse has got a good draw (two) and has got the best jockey on him in the country. He's a great lad and I love him to bits," said the County Durham trainer.
