This Wednesday we head back to Canterbury Park for another strong mid-week metropolitan seven race card. With a fair bit of rain predicted to fall on Wednesday during the meeting, we could be racing on worse than the Soft 7 rating of the track early in the week. The rail will be at 6m position for the entire circuit, with the first race kicking off at 1.25pm.
Best Bet at Canterbury – Cinderella Days
The Joseph Pride-trained Cinderella Days will head to the races for her third start, as she looks to extend her undefeated start to her career. The three-year-old filly has won both of her career starts to date, recording wins at Newcastle and Warwick Farm in May and August of this year. The daughter of Astern has shown that she can sit on or just in behind the lead in both of her wins which have come in soft and heavy conditions. With some rain forecast on Wednesday, we expect the track to deteriorate to worse than a Soft 7 and this filly will be comfortable in the wet conditions. With the aid of barrier one and Brenton Avdulla sticking, this girl should jump on the bunny and be very hard to catch over 1250m.

Next Best at Canterbury – Roots
The lethal combination of Chris Waller and James McDonald will combine in the third race of the day with Roots in a 1550m Benchmark 78. The four-year-old mare returned from a four-month spell with a very impressive win over 1300m at Warwick Farm on August 31, where she sat off the speed and flew home to win by half-a-length. Her first start showed that any extra distance next start would only be a positive. This daughter of Press Statement finished fifth in an Australasian Oaks (Group One) and sixth in the Phar Lap (Group Two) back in the Autumn, which tells us that Waller has a very big opinion of this girl. James McDonald has retained the ride for her second-up start, which is another positive, so this mare should be winning again.

Best Value at Canterbury – Holy Tycoon
Todd Howlett will be looking for his mare, Holy Tycoon, to go back-to-back in 1100m Canterbury Park races. The four-year-old mare was very tough to hold of the race favourite at her last run, winning by the barest of margins on a heavy track on September 7. Tommy Berry has chosen to stick with this daughter of Written Tycoon which is a positive to us, along with the already soft track that could only get worse on race day. This girl loves a wet track, with all four of her career wins coming on soft or heavy tracks. There will be good speed in this event, so if Tommy Berry can have this girl three or four lengths off the lead, we should see her flying down the outside with the last crack at them.
