Hamilton Tips: Imperial Legend

Hamilton Tips: Imperial Legend

Previous course and distance winner who ran well at Thirsk when almost matching the closing sectional of the winner. Down in grade this afternoon.

Imperial Legend is the type of sprinter who wins in his turn and that could be the 3.05 Hamilton.

He races off a generous looking mark considering his last two wins have come off 80 and 74 and although they were both a while ago, he shaped with promise at Thirsk.


Racing in a higher grade, he was only beaten 2.5 lengths in a reasonable time. His adjusted speed rating of 71 is equal to his mark and he clocked the third fastest closing sectional, very similar to that of the winner. 

Last time the 7-year-old visited Hamilton he won and with Dandy Nicholls enjoying a 19% strike rate (12-64) at the track, I expect his horse has made the trip with victory in mind.
