Mick Gannon – Canterbury Wednesday Best Bets 12/8/26

Race 1 – #2 Lorax – $2.40

Lorax produced an eye-catching return at Randwick, settling near the rear before charging home into third and doing his best work through the line.

He'll strip fitter for that first-up performance and the rise to 1200 metres is exactly what he's looking for.

The map should also see him settle closer this time rather than conceding such a big start. With the benefit of that run under his belt and a more suitable setup, he'll give a huge sight.

Race 2 – #1 Wanda’s Spark – $2.10

Wanda’s Spark brings the benefit of race fitness into this after an excellent debut at Kensington a fortnight ago.

She showed plenty of ability on that occasion and will only improve with the experience. Importantly, she has enough natural speed to settle prominently and make her own luck.

With that debut run bringing her forward and an ideal on-speed map, she gets every chance to go one better at her second start.
