The John O'Brien trained Desert Dancer will renew rivalry with his conqueror Dark Treasure in Saturday's feature event, the Insurance Company of the West Indies Limited (ICWI) - Joseph Hadeed Stud Farm Association National Stakes at Santa Rosa Park in Arima.
The feature is expected to be a thrilling event with the Glenn Mendez's Dark Treasure likely to whip his heralding rival once again.
Ideally, Dark Treasure would prefer further but Mendez has him back at concept pitch and he could go in again.
The other feature, the Carib - John O'Brien, is for imported three year olds and over horses. It is an open affair with any of the five horses likely to take the first prize cheque. However, O'Brien Masterpiece can make it a great day for the champion trainer. The Harriram Gobin trained One Fortheroad, Free Passage and Eye See You will give a good account of themselves.
When entries were taken yesterday a total of 108 horses were entered for the nine-race card.
Post time is 12.30 pm.
Here are the entries for Day two of the ARC racing season.
