Cups King ready to dominate…again!

PREMIER horseman Ryan Hryhorec appears set to dominate another round of country cups this weekend.

Although he has all but turned the various trotting events into his personal playground, Hryhorec has also enjoyed his share of success among the pacing ranks.

At Globe Derby tomorrow night Hryhorec will once again play a strong hand in the co-features – Strathalbyn Pacing and Trotting Cups.

Along with the weight of numbers, Hryhorec also has the strength in quality according to betting markets.

Hryhorec has five runners in the Pacing Cup, with three under double figures.

In what is considered a wide-open affair, Dhaulagiri is $2 favourite from gate six for Matthew Horsenell, with Bellezza Nera next in line at $5 from barrier five for David Harding.

Then there is Lord Zarias at $5.50, Peace Of Heaven at $7 and Bettrerzipit at $8 for Hryhorec.

Tembie and Last Tango in Heaven are Hryhorec’s ‘outsiders’ at $10!

Performing below his best during his most recent outing, Peace Of Heaven is expected to bounce back from the pole.

The son of Rock N Roll Heaven won seven of his previous nine starts, with a third also in the mix.

It’s a similar scenario in the Trotting Cup, where Hryhorec has four squaregaiters ready for battle.

Making his debut for Harding, Mcgee is a $3.50 favourite from a 20-metre handicap, with Is That A Bid next at $4 for Hryhorec.

Is That A Bid shares the 30-metre backmark with his stablemate Phoebe Onyx which overcame the same handicap to win the Kadina Trotting Cup two starts ago.

The son of Wishing Stone is listed at $7, with Aldebaran Dexta and So Vogue at $14 for Hryhorec.

Boasting six wins from her last eight outings, So Vogue has drawn to cause an upset from the pole.
