Feature harness finals

Two rich harness racing finals for two-year-olds at Melton on Saturday take the spotlight for Aaron Bain Racing this weekend.

But firstly, there will be a trip to Thomas Farms Murray Bridge for the thoroughbreds on Saturday.

Ultra-consistent THERE GOES MY HERO backs up after an excellent second at Morphettville Parks

He runs in race five, the Daish Irrigation & Fodder Handicap (2500m) at 1.52pm SA time, drawing gate 11 in an acceptance of 14, but already there has been a scratching.

Apprentice Taylor Johnstone takes the ride and with her 2kg claim, the four-year-old will carry 2kg under the minimum.

THERE GOES MY HERO was an excellent second behind Queensland Derby-bound Party Crasher last week.

Early markets have the gelding at $5 with the favourite Sentimental Flame at $3.30.

ABR’s other runner is METRO LEGEND which has drawn terribly in race nine, the Mulch N More Handicap (1400m) at 4.25pm SA time.

He has drawn gate 19 in an acceptance of 20 with four emergencies.

Apprentice Taylor Johnstone will claim 2kg off his weight of 62.5kg.

METRO LEGEND has had just one from a break, in the Listed Hills Railway Stakes at Oakbank, beaten 3.24 lengths by the winner Volcanic Express.

Early markets have the gelding at $15 with the favourite Sachem at $5.50.

ABR is hoping for feature successes at Melton on Saturday night.

LOUCASSO lines up in the $150,000 APG Melbourne Sales Graduate Series Final (1720m) for two-year-old colts & geldings, race eight at 8.18pm SA time.

Trained by Emma Stewart and to be driven by Mark Pitt, he will come from gate three in a field of eight.

Bookmakers think LOUCASSO will win and have him at $1.09 favourite.

Then, DEGARMEA TEALE will start in the $150,000 APG Melbourne Sales Graduate Series Final (1720m) for two-year-old fillies, race nine at 8.44pm SA time.

Also trained by Stewart, the filly will be driven by Jackie Barker and carry the number four saddlecloth in a field of seven.

DEGARMEA TEALE has been installed a $1.20 favourite.

ABR is hopeful the pair can justify their short quotes.

At Globe Derby Park, CAPTAIN PERFECT will attempt to notch a third straight win in as many weeks when he contests race eight, the T Junction Performing At Globe Sunday May 25 Pace (1800m) at 9.50pm SA time.

The three-year-old has drawn gate 10 in a field of 11 with one emergency, with top concession reinsperson Bernadette Page to drive.

Trained by Emma Stewart, CAPTAIN PERFECT won the SA St Leger two weeks ago, then scored by a brilliant 55-1/2 metres last week.
