Christmas at the Races on Friday 17.12.2010


A late start for the meeting of 1.28 pm and a very late finish of 7.35pm for Friday racing at Riccarton Park.


We have 6 very nice in form horses entered, who are all bright and well and hopefully with luck on the day, there will be a couple of winners amongst them.

The Aftershock was last start stakes placed in the Welcome Stakes at Riccarton before a short spell, the 800m is too short for him and so we will be looking to use the race as a nice trial into his start at Dunedin on Boxing Day. Jamie Bullard will ride

Mt Difficulty was placed again at his last start at Cromwell and is not far away from getting a well deserved win. Izuan Khairil will ride


Inquisition will no doubt be well supported again by his loyal followers, hopefully they haven't already abandoned him, he is a lovely horse who always seems to leave his luck at home. Izuan Khairil will ride

Cangowest was placed at Timaru after being blocked for room and clear running, she has grown into a lovely mare and is working very well, she always tries very hard and gives a good account of herself. Izuan Khairil will ride.



Bradnor good effort again at Ashburton, he always seems at the moment to weight in, he will appreciate the big Riccarton track and we will look to ride him back. Izuan Khairil will ride.



Stopover It all turned to custard at his last start at Cromwell with heat stress and treatment for dehydration following the race by the Club Veterinarian. He appears to be back to normal. Jamie Bullard was very pleased with his final gallop this morning and hopefully he will put in a run similar to his Otago effort. Danielle Johnson will ride as Bully was committed to another horse which eventuates will not run.
