The Derick Mosca trained Slippery Sam and the John O'Brien trained King Whistler are set to do battle in Saturday's feature event over 1,350 metres on the main track at Santa Rosa Park, Arima. O'Brien also has the talented classic winner Onetokeep in the line-up. However, the nine-horse feature could be a real competitive event, should the Douglas Bennett trained Loan Shark run up to his best. The David Ojar trained Land Amour is expected to be tumbling down at the end and should be feared with Nicholas Patrick in the saddle. When entries were taken yesterday, a total of 99 horses took entry for the Arima Race Club's (ARC) 10-race programme. Post time is 11.45 am.
Here are the declared runners, riders and weights for Saturday's card.
