James Herbertson holds the cards in the Sportsbet Victoria Cup

James Herbertson and Mach Dan have drawn barrier one in the Sportsbet Victoria Cup, and they hold the key to the all-important speed map.

The 24-year-old elite young reinsman outlined his chances ahead of the action-packed meeting.


 Race 1 – Hyland Harness Colours Trot

#10 Nephew Of Sonoko (Trainer: Ross Graham)

Herbertson says – “He’s drawn badly in a very strong race. It’s going to be tough for him to win.”


Race 4 – Aldebaran Park Bill Collins Trotters Sprint (Group 1)

#7 Harry Stamper (Trainer: Joe Pace)

Herbertson says – “Harry Stamper has drawn seven over the short trip, he will need an awful amount of luck. He’s going alright though.”


Race 5 – Woodlands Stud Victoria Derby Final (Group 1)

#4 Stormryder (Trainer: Emma Stewart)

Herbertson says – “He has drawn kinda awkward in four, he will probably be driven looking for cover and saved for one run.”


Race 6 – Sportsbet Victoria Cup (Group 1)

#1 Mach Dan (Trainer: Emma Stewart)

Herbertson says – Mach Dan has drawn well and we will be looking to hold up fairly close early. It’s game on now with Leap To Fame out.”


Race 7 – Pryde’s Easifeed Victoria Oaks Final (Group 1)

#2 Coastal Babe (Trainer: Steven Reid)

(She will start from barrier 1 if the emergency comes out)

Herbertson says – “She has drawn good, and the early speed will be interesting. She had a nice lead in run last week. She’s got the right attributes to go to close but we will need luck in running and things to go our way.”


Race 8 – Living Legends Pace

#3 Shanlou (Trainer: Emma Stewart)

Herbertson says – “She is in a strong enough race and has been racing very well. She should be there abouts.”
