Trainer Danielle Seib and jockey Pierre Boudvillain will head to Cootamundra on Sunday with two leading chances set to go around.
Seib has been enjoying a good run of success of late and is hoping to continue the form at Cootamudra where she has the favourite in the feature event.

Seib has Due Calzini in the Central Hotel Cootamundra Cup (1600m), while she also has Hellinda in the Riverina Ford Benchmark 66 Handicap (1100m).
Boudvillain will partner both of Seib’s gallopers and she expects them to run well.
“Due Calzini is a very good horse, he’s been good for us, and I’m hoping that he can go on with the job on Sunday,” said Seib.
“He has a great record with four wins and six placings from 20 starts, and he has had a solid trial since a last start win over a longer distance at Wagga.”
Hellinda has a consistent record and finished second at Corowa at his latest start.
“He’s only won the two races from 23 starts, but he has finished second nine times so he’s never too far away,” Seib said. “It looks a suitable race for him on Sunday.”
Wagga trainer Tim Donnelly has County Kilkenny lining up in the $32,000 Cootamundra Cup again on the back of a second in the event last year.
