Diablo Blanco primed for the Canterbury Belle
Grey filly Diablo Blanco (NZ) (Super Seth) will be out to gain some valuable black-type on Saturday when she heads to Riccarton Park to contest the Listed New Zealand Bloodstock Canterbury Belle Stakes (1200m).

Sutton said races such as the Exford Plate are…
The Victress gets a short-term stakes nod
