Reinsman Blair Orange renews his association with Sunnivue Ted at Forbury Park tonight two years after driving the trotter to win there.

Sunnivue Ted and Sunnivue Impulse give Portobello trainer Steve Ashton a useful hand in the main race for trotters tonight.

Sunnivue Ted finished second to The Fiery Ginga at Ascot Park at his last start on August 12 from a 40m handicap.

That placing took on merit when The Fiery Ginga won again at Addington last Friday night.

Orange has been re-enlisted with Jonny Cox committed to Jaccka Justy, who shares the backmark of 55m with Here Comes Pat, the Forbury Park specialist.

Jaccka Justy, back with Riversdale owner Charlie Smaill, is starting a fresh campaign.

Sunnivue Impulse won at Gore on Sunday in the hands of Alan Clark, who has retained the drive.

Here Comes Pat has gained six of her eight wins at Forbury Park and she overcame a 50m handicap there last month.

Rockin Roll Lad, a last-start winner at Forbury Park, his fourth win on the track, is engaged in race 8 tonight.

The spring campaign of Blue Diamond Stakes winner Samaready will be reviewed this weekend after the filly completes a course of treatment for a slight infection, AAP reports.

Samaready will miss the Caulfield meeting on Saturday, where she had been been entered for the McNeil Stakes, after being put on a course of antibiotics.

"She's not too bad, but we can't run on Saturday because she's been treated," trainer Mick Price said.
