Philip Hobbs is more than capable of readying one at home so Waiheke, a half-brother to a winning chaser, should be monitored for any market support even though Richard Johnson rides Woolstone One for Emma Lavelle. Angels Antics was well supported when second in a bumper here in May but may lack the competitive edge of GRANIA O'MALLEY. Maybe a switch to hurdling will see Evan Williams' filly end a frustrating sequence in bumpers.
