Early Mail For Canterbury On December 27

3 minute read

Early mail, blackbookers and best exotic plays for Canterbury on December 27.

Religify Picture: Racing and Sports

CANTERBURY SATURDAY

RACE 1 (10) PERIGNON: This stylish Snitzel filly trialled well against the classy Ottoman before making her debut in a very strong Wyong Magic Millions over 1100m on December 18 where she displayed obvious talent to run home from last after a slow start for an eye-catching fourth. There is a lot of depth in that form and expect her to improve sharply with the benefit of that race experience.

RACE 5 (3) AMOVATIO: Very fit gelding racing at his peak well placed to add to excellent record in this distance range after two recent placings over shorter trips since his most recent win at 1600m. He’s a winner of his only Canterbury start and should appreciate getting down in weight from recent starts.

RACE 7 (9) RELIGIFY: Fast emerging talent has gone a month waiting for a return to a good track since his impressive back to back wins at Warwick Farm and Canterbury that stamped him as one out of the box. Gave Craftiness a start and a beating at Warwick Farm - and that promising sprinter has won twice since, then showed his adaptability to lead and cane them fast time at Rosehill. Tommy Berry has plenty of options in this field from gate three - just expect another win.
