St Bernard will attempt to emulate his half-brother and half-sister by winning the group three White Robe Lodge Handicap on Saturday for Wingatui owner-trainer Shaun McGarry.
McGarry won the group three race as trainer and part-owner with Mary Josephine in 1997 and Rhu Lynch in 1999. St Bernard has won four races, three of his wins coming in his past four starts at Gore, Winton and Wingatui.
He cleared maiden ranks on his home track on December 26, 2008.
St Bernard is on the minimum with 53kg.
Chris Johnson has retained the mount, about 2kg above his usual riding weight.
Johnson has ridden St Bernard in three of his wins.
St Bernard is a 6yr-old by Generous and the last foal of eight foals left by Royal Fiesta, a Fiesta Star mare.
Mary Josephine was by Random Chance and Rhu Lynch by Mi Preferido.
McGarry raced Mary Josephine and Rhu Lynch with Brian McLaughlin.
Ray Menzies was also in the ownership of Rhu Lynch.
Menzies and Colin Harper have a share in the ownership of St Bernard.
Aaron Taylor, who rode Mary Josephine and Rhu Lynch, is now a trainer.
He has Blancpain in the $70,000 White Robe Lodge Handicap (1600m) on Saturday.
Street Law, who mastered 59kg to win at Riccarton yesterday, will travel to Wingatui tomorrow in the hope of a start in the Eclipse Stakes.
She is first emergency.
"She will definitely be on the truck and we will take the gamble that she will get a start," Kenny Rae, her co-trainer, said.
Street Law, the winner of her past three starts, has tested positive to Ekraar after being served three months ago.
She is due to be retired after racing at Invercargill on February 19.
The Rae stable has Danvinsky and Heart's Delight in the Dunedin Guineas, the pair drawing 20 and 21.
Danvinsky, winner of the 3yr-old race at Riccarton on Saturday under 59.5kg, will not start if his sale to Hong Kong eventuates.
Heart's Delight finished fourth behind Danvinsky last Saturday and Rae said she would be "very competitive" at Wingatui.
Brian and Lorraine Anderton, of the White Robe Lodge stud, North Taieri, sold a filly by Gallant Guru from She's Snubbed for $32,000 and a colt by Hotel Grand from Swapping for $32,500 at the select yearling sale at Karaka yesterday.
The top price yesterday was $260,000 paid by Steve Brem of Sydney for a Fast `n' Furious-Silver Fern colt offered by the Waikato Stud.
Wingatui trainer Terry Kennedy paid $20,000 for a Volksraad-Windfield Dancer colt.
Corey Brown has taken the mount on Shocking in the CF Orr Stakes at Caulfield on Saturday week, AAP reports. He had been offered the rides on smart 2yr-olds Satin Shoes and Fast Shanti in the Widden Stakes at Randwick the same day.
"Of course it was a tough decision. I've got horses that could be really good, but Shocking has won me a Melbourne Cup [2009]," Brown said.
Brown made the trip to Melbourne to ride Shocking in work last week.
"He felt as good as I've ever ridden him," he said.
