Jerry’s Talent should win at Forbury

The Morrinsville trainer, Clarric Woodward, looks sets to gain his second win on his southern holiday with Jerry’s Talent in the Easter Pace at Forbury Park on Saturday.

Woodward, who originally came from Southand, won with Jerrj r ’s Talent at Wyndham on March 8, and he paced a fine race to run the Speedy Tanui to a neck over 2800 m at Winton last Saturday.

The standard of the opposition in this race does not look to be particularly high, and, from No. 4 at the barrier, he should be prominently placed all the way. Vamoose, a five-year-old with a sound record as a stayer, Kishmul, Late State, and Keep Gay are others expected to race prominently. A capacity field will contest the Stadium Pace, another mobile-start event and the second leg of the main double. Cyclone Lad, Whaa Hana, and Loch End are three Canterbury pacers expected to hold their own. Flying Tufts and Song Kay are two other form runners from Canterbury assured of solid support. Southland stables are also strongly represented, and bold runs are expected from Young Kenny, Damian Peter, Roseland Lad, and Robyn’s Dream, all of which have done well on the recent southern circuit. (T.A.B. double closes 7.10 p.m.) (T.A.B. closes 7.30 p.m.) 8.40 p.m.— EASTER PACE $1550; C 3; mobile start; 2700 m. 1 0000 MYSTERY BOX (1) It (5 g Good Point — Wee Lass). Form background weak and makes little appeal. A. Foster 2 7088 PRINCE PROOF (2) It (7 g Hundred Proof — Princess Hal). Most disappointing lately, but capable of better. 3 3455 LATE START (3) It (5 h Local Light — Island Magic). Seldom guilty of a bad run, and must be one of the better chances. S. Henderson 4 8412 JERRY'S TALENT (4) It (8 g Van Hanover — Scottish Talent). Has been racing most generously lately. Close second to the speedy Tanui at Winton last week. Looks the likely winner on that run. C. Woodward 5 2044 KEEP GAY (5) It (5 g Keep Away — Gay Judy). Only fair runs at his last three starts, but before that paced the occasional good race. Could surprise. G. Shand 6 1874 VAMOOSE (4) It (5 g Keep Away — Dlliean). Came on well for fourth on the

. first night at Addington. Stays well, and should be close up. 7 0470 FACETIOUS (7) It (4 m Johnny Globe — Fallacy Queen). Latest efforts have been only fair. Might be close to returning to form. D. D. Nyhan 8 2815 KISHMUL (8) It (5 m Lordship — Kuyaway). Has paced fair races lately, and by no means a forlorn chance. Also in at Addington, J. Smolenski 9 4910 GAME CHANCE (9) It (4 g Majestic Chance — Free Smile). Failed last week at Winton. Could do better in this smaller field. J. Cox 10 400 CONFEDERATE (10) It (6 m Garrison Hanover — Undaunted). First start since December, and will have to be taken on trust. Capable on her day. 11 0484 SPECIAL HANOVER (11) It (5 h Van Hanover — Free Smile). Fair race at Winton last week, and with a reasonable run could surprise. H. Cox (T.A.B. closes 7.30 p.m.) 930 p.m— STADIUM PACE $1400; C2; mobile start; 2200 m. 1 031 ROBYN'S DREAM (1) It (6 g Lumber Dream—Robyn Lea). Fought on gamely for narrow win last Saturday at Winton. In spite of the rise in class must be consideredS. Barlow 2 1020 YOUNG KENNY (2) It (5 g Young Charles—Ferndale Star), hailed at Winton, but has shown fine form at times. From handy draw must be considered. C. Baynes 3 2721 WHAA HANA (3) It (4 h Byebye Bill —Gloss). Won well at Washdyke on February 22 at his latest start. Capable of a bold run. T. Behrns 4 2328 DAMIAN PETER (4) It (6 g Dick Adios—Auburn Lady). Usually close up, and must be one of the better chances. H. Skinner 5 0248 lAN (5) It (6 h Johnny Globe—Adamae). Not noted for consistency, but has gone well enough at times to be a prospect in this type of race. G. McEwan 4 7834 TEMPEST FOYLE (4) It (4 m Tempest Hanover— Golden Legacy). Racing most consistently and due to break through for another win at short notice. Top prospect. D. McNaught 7 031 ROSELAND LAD (7) It (4 g Honest Master—Blue Roseland). Won handily last week at Winton and must be given a chance of repeating. 8 4050 HANOVER PRIDE (sf’lt (6 g Garrison Hanover—Lady Shona). Has a useful turn of speed, but not consistent. 9 0233 LOCH END (9) It (5 m Fallacy—Holy Loch). Most unlucky when third to Royal Sceptre at Hororata on March 8. With reasonable run will take beating. 1# 2214 FLYING TUFTS L (lOMt (4 g Tuft—-Fluid Drive). Ran on well for fourth to Royal Sceptre at Hororata after receiving a poor run. Will be well suited by the flying start and should be close up. 11 f l4 ’, SON ® lA« P m Lordship — Tatsy Brigade). Most impressive when she won at Addington on March .. Z; Sure t 0 8° well. 12 1415 CYCLONE LAD (12) It (3 g Armbro Hurricane—Arrest).
