Who's Escaped, winner of three races, is booked on a flight to Sydney on Tuesday. A half share in the 5yr-old has been bought by Theo Aias, of Sydney.
Dexter Dunn took his tally of wins for the Graeme Anderson and Amber Hoffman stable this season to 30 when he drove their five winners at Forbury Park on Thursday.
The stable has won 32 races for the season. Dunn lifted his tally to 219 after winning with Eye Contact at Auckland last night.
The five winners on Thursday were using the Evolution sulky Dunn imported from the United States 10 months ago at a cost of $12,000.
A similar sulky was first imported to New Zealand by Robert Famularo for his Cavalla Bloodstock operation, which has had spectacular success with Monkey King and Carabella.
Dunn has taken the sulky to several South Island meetings, including some in Southland.
"It is good for my back," Dunn said.
"It is also a bit wider and fits closer to the horse."
The sulky has a patented tracking design.
The Anderson-Hoffman stable has won races with 17 individual horses this season. Terrorway has made the biggest contribution with five wins.
Grae Rex, a maiden winner for the stable on Thursday, is raced by Barrie Devereux, of Perth. He also races I Am Legend, the winner of three races from the stable.
Strike Doctor, winner of a maiden trot on Thursday for the Phil Williamson stable, is a brother of Doctor Jock (Dr Ronerail-Strike Account), who won four races as a 3yr-old before he fractured a pedal bone.
Strike Doctor is raced by the same owners, Dennis Stumbles, Tony Meehan and Jim Hunter.
Strike Doctor and Doctor Jock are half-brothers to Joe Boy, who won a sales series race for 2yr-old trotters at Alexandra Park in 2003, when trained by the late Peter Cowan.
