HEISTHEONE: His fan club can get the money at short notice. WHITNEY: This one is ready for a winning performance. WAIKATO – Ross Fisher SLEEPING BEAUTY: Was very impressive on debut. Looks capable of going further. LAUBERHORN: Is gradually getting close to her best form. Watch from now on. HALL OF FAME: Looked like a winner next time, if a senior rider jumps aboard. CENTRAL DISTRICTS – Paul Gueorgieff WILLYBE: Added to recent consistent good form when fighting well for third after leading at Hastings last weekend. Handles better tracks. TIFFANY’S: Last at Hastings last weekend but run best forgotten after being caught three wide for entire journey. Can bounce back. SPIKER: Suffered cut to leg when fighting well for third at Hastings which continued recent good efforts. Due a winning turn. CANTERBURY – Mat Kermeen SELLING THE DREAM: Drawn to get a nice trip in race two at Rangiora today and last start was better than it looked. JONTY JAMES: Should get the photo on the wall at start five in race three. DONEGAL RUNDLESCREEK: Hard to catch but should have enough in her favour in race seven. OTAGO-SOUTHLAND – Jamie Searle WILLOW: Stretched out boldly in last 100m for second at Gore. First race for seven months. Improver. ROBYN’S BAD BOY: Pacer with no luck in last two starts. Support again in next outing. THUNDA DOWN UNDER: Went a lot better at Ascot Park. Might be ready to show true worth. GREYHOUNDS – Peter Earley NIPPO: Appeals as a Quaddie anchor in race three today. Has wide runners drawn outside him. ELECTRIC IMPULSE: She lived up to her name with smart nine-length win last Sunday. In race eight today. TYPHOON TED: He looked a tad lost on the big bend at Cambridge on Thursday. Worth another chance in the sixth today. VIDEO WATCH – Murray Wedlake CHELA CHOI: Would have been hard to hold out at Hastings had a gap opened for her early in the straight. LAAFFAIRE: Took a while to wind up once she was in the clear at Riccarton and was closing at the line. WILD JACK: Became pocketed near the home turn at Riccarton and had no chance by the time he was out in the open.
