The intermediate graded greyhounds provides the feature 520m racing action at Hatrick this evening.

A number of the normal Friday higher graded chasers are heading north to the Cambridge Raceway for the huge Waikato double header meeting on Christmas Eve.

It is a rather open looking C3 Race 10 event where a podium finishing position can be made for the majority of the field.

Bigtime Donny is an exciting Lisa Cole-prepared youngster.

He has quickly advanced through the grades, however he faces his toughest career test here from the tricky five trap.

Kennelmate Extrapolate has the draw advantage after being allocated the ace trap to jump from.

Another from the kennel Bigtime Rise is provided with swooping claims.

Thrilling Eddie has indicated that he won't be hanging around in this class for long for Maree Gowan.

The locally Errol Duganzich trained Midsomer Magic has shown sufficient to suggest that he can feature here.

Golden Pixel is generally sighted contesting the early pace for her conditioner Glen Hodgson, while the Angela Turnwald trained Brilliant Arbee must jump straight onto the early pace.

Treat both reserve runners Cawbourne Trixy and Jinja Loren with respect if they gain race starts here.

The stayers are in action in the race four 645m event. Adding real interest to it is presence of the Turnwald prepared New Zealand Cup winner Nature's Gent.

He has given every indication that he is likely to run out a real strong 645m here.

The open class sprinters engage in the race 5 305m dash.

The recent Matt Roberts trained Group 2 Dash For Cash winner Hypocritical was upstaged by Bigtime Shaker from the Cole kennel last Friday.

The draw for this evening's version suggests that Hypocritical (trap 2) can reverse that result over Bigtime Shaker (Trap 4).

With one exception the normal racing pattern for the Wanganui GRC at the Hatrick Raceway will be followed over the Christmas/New Year period.

Next week's usual Wednesday and Friday meetings well be held, although the Friday December 29 meeting will start at around noon.
