Tuesday twilight at Cambridge

Race 1: Lincoln La Moose
4.39pm

“He hung badly last time at Auckland but he’s going left-handed on Tuesday so he’ll be fine. He’s drawn out a bit but if things go his way he’ll be a chance. He wasn’t far away in a much stronger field in his previous start when he over-raced and was badly held up in the run home.”

Race 5: Im Not The Maid
6.24pm

“She’s a good, honest little mare who will appreciate the drop in company here and the good draw. We’ve been running her at Auckland to get points off her rating but this is more her go and with Zac (Butcher) on that will help.”

Saturday night at Auckland

Race 8: Whats Up The Hill
9.26pm

“We’ve taken the hood off him, it was shutting him down too much and making him too blase. Zac (Butcher) said he trotted perfectly without it at the workouts. It fired him up a bit and he left the mobile like a monster. Zac reckoned he could have led easily. He’s still a work in progress but he’s a lovely horse and is always a chance. He’d be one of the main chances tonight if he did things right.”
