The fourth rankings have now been released for the 2016 TABtouch Inter Dominion with RWWA Chief Handicapper of Harness, Warren Wishart stating “there was minimal change in today`s rankings but it is certainly becoming a tight race to the series for those just outside the top 30.”
“Heez On Fire with another eye catching performance has jumped from 34 – 31 but hot on his heels are Stunning Grin (32), Ima Connoisseur (33), Copagrin (34) and Delightful Offer (35) who will be very keen to impress over the next 2 weeks before the final list of 30 is released.”
Following another gutsy win on Friday night in the G2 Mount Eden Pace, Libertybelle Midfrew has jumped into the 10th position. She will be striving to qualify for the final once again this year following her unplaced effort in last year’s final behind the number 1 ranked Lennytheshark.
Some of the big out of town names such as Ohoka Punter, Smolda and Hectorjayjay have all produced top class performances in their recent starts and will be looking to give the home town contenders a run for their money come November 25.
Below is the full list of the 4th rankings with the final acceptances and emergencies to be declared at 4.00pm (WST) Friday 11th November 2016.
