Mark Walker is looking forward to kicking off Lara Antipova’s Australian campaign on Saturday, while he is on weather watch in New Zealand with a couple of stakes contenders.
Te Akau Racing have been a dominant force among New Zealand’s juvenile ranks this season, and they are hoping to add one more two-year-old stakes scalp to their record on Friday.
Te Akau Racing continued their juvenile dominance at their home meeting at Matamata on Wednesday when taking out the quinella in the Entain/NZB Insurance Pearl Series (1200m) courtesy of Honour Roll and The Queen’s Sword.
