Awapuni trainer Lisa Latta will have a two-pronged attack at Doomben this weekend, headed by Gr.2 Auckland Cup (3200m) winner Platinum Invador.

It's like comparing chalk and cheese but Manawatu trainer Lisa Latta is hoping Platinum Invador can emulate her former Gr.3 Canterbury Gold Cup (2000m) winner Authentic Paddy in Saturday's Coca-Cola-sponsored weight-for-age feature at Riccarton

New Plymouth trainer Janelle Millar and red-hot rider Kate Hercock combined with underrated mare Pure Incanto to take out the first feature on the card at Hastings, the Listed Power Turf Sprint (1200m).

He’s A Doozy has come a long way in the last 12 months and is in the right order to add another feature race title to his burgeoning record on his home track at Awapuni on Saturday.

The Lisa Latta-trained He’s A Doozy ran out an impressive winner of the Gr.3 Gee Hickton Funeral Directors Thompson Handicap at Trentham on Sunday.
