Warlight should triumph in small Oamaru field

Warlight’s fronbrunning powers should carry him through to his third win in his last four starts in the Squires Gin Han dicap. first leg of the Oamaru Jockey Club's T.A.B. double today. -

Warlight is top-weight in a field reduced to six runners at the week-end. when Redlo, Bun Tuck, and Eidi were scratched. Totara Maid will supply Canterbury interest to the race after her win at Ashbur-. ton last week. And Otago might have a strong claimant for the honours in Gates Ajar, which resumed promisingly with a third over a sprint distance at Ashburton. Take Your Leave, a stablemate of Gates Ajar, and also a place-getter at Ashburton, should be one of the improvers in what is likely to be a capacity field for the De Geest Bros Thirteen Hundred, second leg of the T.A.B. double. But this is a field strong in form runners, and the claims of Elcano, National Flight, Triverton, Kurdarook, Mace, and Riccarton’s Kara Sea will be respected. 12.10 p.m.— AUTUMN HIGH-WEIGHT $950: 2130 m. 0652 Horatius <4> 60.0 R.
