WHAT THE HECTON (Hecton Bale- Dubliner) caused an upset win when he missed all the trouble and chased home the best to win his Maiden by a nose over Moment To Mamba in 16.92. The Brad Cook trained youngster was placed on debut for Cook when transferred into his care earlier this month.

SIMPLY QUICK (Big Daddy Cool- Quick To Go) led from box 1 and recorded his first win this year for trainer Trudi Mitchem. The North Baandee trained bitch was injured back in January and has done well to return to the track. The black bitch won by 3/4 length over Astrolithology in 16.42.

DIAMOND MAC (Rippin’ Sam- Illusive Dreama) led from box 1 and recorded her first win at Cannington with a 1 1/2 length victory over Raven Loon in 16.11. The Kylie McLennan trained bitch has been finding all sorts of trouble in her races since she won 8 starts prior.

“Harper’s Hero wins A1 Salvage and Hardware Winter Sprint”

Nambeelup trainer Tony Scott took out tonight’s Winter Sprint final with track specialist Harper’s Hero. The son of Kinloch Brae relished box eight and after a moderate jump maintained a wide path and rounded up the field to win by two lengths. Race favourite Yarrinup Flyer was held up at a vital stage near the rail and finished fourth. The Chris Halse trained Fernando Star was prominent throughout before running second and Ballistic Bullet was close up in third for Terry Erenshaw. Harper’s Hero is owned by Leon Birch and has now started 36 times for 13 wins and 13 minor placings.

HOUNDS TO FOLLOW :

Race 1 Number 4 STARLIGHT GINA : Handled the rise to 490m brilliantly with an all the way win in a fast 27.51.

Race 3 Number 6 MINNIE’S MONELLI : Overcame an awkward draw to finish close up in third in a very nice time.

“Coldstream wins the first with Double Humphrey”

Dyna Double One youngster Double Humphrey stuck severe interference at his race debut back on June 22. He was stood down for racing for ten days by the on-course vet on that occasion and resumed tonight over 302m. From box one he drove through to lead his rivals before posting a smart 17.29 for Ravenswood trainer Derek Coldstream. The Enzo Crudeli prepared Lance Sunrise finished strongly to be the runner up and third was the Brad Cook trained Black Dotty. Double Humphrey is owned by Murray Hamilton and is out of former handy race bitch Lee’s Maggie. She was trained by Corey White and finished racing with 12 wins and 13 placings from 41 career starts including some very handy times at the Mandurah track. Later in the night Coldstream’s only other runner Turbo Charger won over 405m in a smart 23.04.

HOUNDS TO FOLLOW :

Race 4 Number 5 LADY JOSIE : Overcame traffic to run a solid third for Tania Thomas.

Race 5 Number 4 JANICK : Prevailed over the brilliant Bamsy’s Boy in a fast 17.06.
