Michael and Matthew Pitman have two runners assured of a start in the $100,000 Polytrack Championship (1200m) in a fortnight, and they hope to add to that number at Riccarton’s synthetic track on Wednesday.
Riccarton trainers Michael and Matthew Pitman are looking forward to heading south to Kurow on Monday where they will have a two-pronged attack in the meeting’s feature, the Kurow Cup West Coast Steeplechaser (1400m).
“With transferring of the race today, it just gave another opportunity to qualify, which I am appreciative of. He has probably done enough to gain a start now.”
