RISK’S NEXT

Risk and Evening Hero are to compete at the Hawke’s Bay Hunt Meeting. Risk will again be ridden by H. Gordon, who rode the gelding when he won the Manawatu Hunt Cup at the end of last month. No rider has as yet been engaged for Evening Hero The Rangitero gelding likes the top of the ground, and he has found the Hastings track to his liking in the past. On Thursday morning at Awapuni, in company with another jumper from L. Knapp’s team, Risk did a round of the big fences in excellent style, while Evening Hero was associated with Pahu in a gallop over five furlongs on the plough, which was accomplished in 1.8 1-5.
