Jim Wallace’s three-year-old pairing of Liberty Park (NZ) (Ocean Park) and Skippers Canyon (NZ) (Belardo) fought out a tight finish to the HB Farmers Transport Ltd (1600m) at Woodville on Sunday, with the former coming out on top in a stable quinella. Liberty Park was favoured over his stablemate narrowly in the market, which had Croix De Guerre favoured at $3.30. The favourite was quickly away from the gates and lead throughout the running, while Liberty Park and Skippers Canyon settled alongside each-other near the tail of the field. As they turned for home, Skippers Canyon veered to the inside for Amber Riddell and Liberty Park soon followed, finding plenty in the closing stages under Kate Hercock to score by a half-length. Wallace was rapt with the result and anticipates the best is yet to come for Liberty Park, a son of Ocean Park who may be set for the Gr.3 Elsdon Park Wellington Stakes (1600m) in ten days’ time. “I thought he was very good, I think he’s a very smart horse coming up,” he said. “He’s still learning his trade, but I think he’ll be a better-than-average stayer and I really like the horse. “I don’t really know where he’ll go next, it will depend a bit on the weather, but we might have a throw at the stumps at the three-year-old race at Otaki on the 28th.” He was equally pleased with the effort of Skippers Canyon, who added another minor placing to his record after finishing second to Connello at Trentham, who went on to run a gallant fifth in the Gr.1 New Zealand 1000 Guineas (1600m) on Saturday. “He was solid, he probably wanted a little bit more cut in the ground, but he’s fit and racing well, he’s a decent sort of horse,” Wallace said. Wallace bred both horses under his Ardsley Stud banner, and after both failed to sell at the National Yearling Sales and Ready-To-Run Sales, he retained them to train in his own right. “My wife and I bred them both and offered them at the yearling sales, and again at the Ready To Runs, so when we couldn’t find buyers, fortunately I am able to do a little bit with them myself,” he said. “It’s very satisfying, if you don’t sell horses at the sales then it can be challenging to keep them on to train, but fortunately, these two have seemed to pass the test.” Based at Opaki, Wallace has a small team of other horses in work, with Merkel, a Reliable Man filly, one to watch for the future. “I have a filly called Merkel that I really rate, but she’s had no end of problems and has been off the scene. She was supposed to race about three months ago, but things have gone wrong and she had a pretty decent accident which required further time off,” Wallace said. “She’s about ready to go back into work. “Other than that, we have bits and pieces here and there, but those are the three mainstays at this stage.” View the full article -

Benefactor (NZ) (Contributer) bounced back into the winner’s circle at Woodville on Sunday with a strong victory in the Valley D’Vine Restaurant Waipukurau Cup (1600m). The daughter of Contributer is trained at Awapuni by Lisa Latta, who had been searching for ideal track conditions, which she struck at the meeting with an improving Heavy 8 surface in play. In the hands of Lily Sutherland, Benefactor flew the gates and settled in the box-seat third, while Shelbyrock’n took the pacemaking role at a strong tempo. Benefactor began to loom up to the leader on the turn and hit the front early, showing plenty of fight to hold out a surging Tikemyson at the post by a head. Latta was pleased with the performance, indicating a mile won’t be the end of her distance range going forward. “She’s just been battling with tracks, they’ve either been too heavy, but her run at Waverley was a touch disappointing,” she said. “I just think today, the track wasn’t heavy as it was upgraded, and she was looking for that touch better track. “I think she’ll definitely get up over 2000m, she’s just taken a bit of time as some of the Contributer’s do. She tries really hard and is a good little galloper.” The win came to the delight of the mare’s large group of owners, who took shares after Latta purchased her for $24,000 out of Curraghmore’s draft at the 2021 Karaka Yearling Sales. In her 25 starts, she has recorded four wins, four minor placings and $105,400 in stakes. “She’s got a big ownership group, we didn’t pay a lot for her and syndicated her out to a big group so it’s good,” she said. Benefactor was bred by Little Avondale Trust out of a O’Reilly mare Miss Bondi. The mare’s half-brother by Per Incanto, Aeroinvincible, has won two races in Hong Kong. View the full article
