MAY JUST BE TWO MORE FOR THE ROAD

Peters has solid chances on Aug 18 with Legend Of Niagara, Onemorefortheroad

MAY JUST BE TWO MORE FOR THE ROAD

It has been a good last three months for trainer James Peters.

Even by his modest standards, he has racked up 12 winners since June - and there could be more before the month is up.

Peters, who is in his eighth year as a fully fledged trainer at Kranji, has a team of seven lined up for the action on Aug 18 and, on form, he might just pull off a double.

The runners who could do it for him are Legend Of Niagara and Onemorefortheroad.

Both will have flowing form coming into the races and, to ensure that they remain focused on the job ahead, the Englishman who is seventh in the trainers' log with 25 winners - sent the pair out for a final tune-up on Aug 14.

In separate workouts on a drizzly morning in the north of Singapore, Onemorefortheroad cruised over the 600m in 41.2sec while Legend Of Niagara went a tad faster, clocktride ing 38.9. Bruno Queiroz was asOnemorefortheroad while Krisna Thangamani rode Legend Of Niagara.

If you have been keeping count, Onemorefortheroad, who raced formerly as Gemilang and was under the care of ex-Kranji handler Stephen Gray until April, is unbeaten in three starts for his new conditioner Peters.

Yes, he might be "just another horse" in a bigger yard, but in Peters', where he has his meals and is bedded down, he has become an instant hero.
