Canterbury Race 1 - Arrowfield Graduates Mdn Hcp
Tricky two-year-old contest to start the night. THE WILDLING (10) resumes. Held up badly in the straight on debut with a respectable sixth over 1000m in the G3 Gimcrack Stakes at Randwick last October. Returns with the two trials and good enough to overcome the sticky gate. EURIPEDES (1) resumes for his second campaign. Savaged the line on debut with a respectable third over 1100m at Rosehill last November. Given time to mature further and looks ready to go with the two latest trials. Blinkers go on and will prove hard to hold out. EKTIFIRE (13) I Am Invincible filly out of the good producer Ektifaa on debut for the Anthony & Sam Freedman yard. Improved in each of her three trials and maps to get the gun run. AVENGERS (15) Snitzel colt out of the good mare Dream Date on debut for the Anthony & Sam Freedman stable. Impressed in all trials and the blinkers and tongue-tie go on. Stays in the mix.

Resumes from a spell after only one run when 3rd of 9 at Rosehill 2yo Hcp on November 29 over 1100m, 1.5 len behind Fireball carrying 58kg at $8. Eye catching debut and returns with the two sharp trials, go close with the blinkers on.

Colt by Hello Youmzain facing the starter for the first time. Trial form indicates he's up to a solid debut. Won a Canterbury trial over 899m on February 6. Happy to pass from the horror draw.

Two-year-old colt (Wootton Bassett - Hussyanna) has trialled on three occasions leading into today's race. Fourth at Rosehill in a 900m trial on February 12. Well bred colt who will be strong late.

Returns to racing after just one start. Back after five months break. At debut last start 6th of 11 at Randwick in the G3 Gimcrack on October 4 over 1000m, 1.75 len behind Shiki carrying 56kg at $14. Had three recent trials to get ready for this. Last trial Was third in a Canterbury trial over 899m on February 6. Unlucky on debut and returns with the two trials, can overcome the sticky gate.

On debut. Two-year-old filly by Home Affairs out of Super Too. At the most recent trial finished sixth at Rosehill over 900m. Profiles well and worth keeping safe from the Waller stable.

Third race start. First start second last of 11 at Randwick in the G3 Gimcrack on October 4 over 1000m, 4.5 len behind Shiki with 56kg at $7. Went for a spell before returning 3rd in a small field at Newcastle 2yo Mdn on February 14 over 900m, 4.5 len behind She's Extra with 56kg at $4.20. Wide draw will make it tough.

Having third race start. When well in the market at debut, eased back early on second last in a small field at Wyong 2yo Hcp on January 10 over 1200m, 2.5 len behind Audit with 58kg at $4. Second-up 5th of 9 at Randwick 2yo Hcp on January 24 over 1000m, 6 len behind Satin Summer with 57.5kg at $81. This doesn't look as tough and stays in the mix.
