Kiwi trainer John Wheeler had 5 winners in NZ on Wednesday -- so watch out for the in-form mentor in the two feature-jumps races at Sandown on Saturday. Wheeler has Yamanaura in the Australian Hurdle and Zagata in the Australian Steeplechase. Finally, can we really believe him when he says his Qld Derby winner Court Ruler will NOT contest big races in the Melbourne spring?
