Nathan Williamson talks Ashburton and Hidden Talent

Southland harness racing trainer Nathan Williamson heads to Ashburton on Sunday (Oct. 22) with two runners though talent trotter Hidden Talent (Bacardi Lindy) is not one of them.

Pembrook Playboy (Bettor’s Delight) lines up in the Group Two Ashburton Flying Stakes. The 2400 metre stand should suit the six year old and he gets a nice draw at four.

In the Two Year Old Fillies Sires Stakes heat, unbeaten filly Flying Ellie (Art Major) faces her biggest test. She last raced at Invercargill in March, winning the Group Three Caduceus Club of Southland Alabar Fillies Classic.

Meanwhile Williamson says talented trotting mare Hidden Talent will miss Cup Week and is therefore out of the Group One Dominion Handicap.
