Five horses not to miss at Addington tonight

NZHarnessNews

By Michael Guerin Spring has sprung and Addington’s booming meeting this Friday feels almost like the start of the serious stuff. Not only do we have the next step on the road to the IRT New Zealand Cup but one of trotting’s “big three” returns, so does our best pacing filly in True Fantasy and plenty of potential lower grade stars.

Mascot keeps Flying the flag for Dabernig

NZRacingDesk

A longer than expected winter has taken its toll on Flying Mascot (NZ) (Tavistock) although trainer Tom Dabernig is not complaining – too much. Flying Mascot heads to the Gr.2 Let’s Elope Stakes (1400m) at Flemington on Saturday, her second run for the preparation. While a win on Saturday would be nice, Dabernig’s main goal for the campaign is the Gr.1 Empire Rose Stakes (1600m) at Flemington on October 29. Flying Mascot rose quietly through the ranks last spring, winning a Benchmark 70 grade race first-up at Bendigo, progressing to…

Pierre Ng eagerly awaits Sunday’s meeting. Seemingly always destined to become a Hong Kong trainer, Pierre Ng will fulfil a cherished ambition on Sunday (September 11) when he saddles eight runners at Sha Tin, hopeful of eventually matching the success of his father and former trainer Peter.

NZRacingDesk

Opie Bosson hasn’t been aboard Imperatriz since their demolition job in the Gr.2 Foxbridge Plate (1200m), but that doesn’t mean the mighty mare has been out of sight, out of the champion jockey’s mind. The 42-year-old has been keeping a close eye on the hot favourite for Saturday’s Gr.1 Tarzino Trophy (1400m) at Hastings where he will be reunited with the Mark Walker-trained four-year-old. “I haven’t ridden her since Te Rapa, but I can tell you she worked very well yesterday morning,” Bosson said. Already a dual Group One winner,…
