South Coast Arden (middle, red colours) winning at Addington on Friday. Champion big race driver Natalie Rasmussen looks set to partner giant market mover South Coast Arden in next month's IRT New Zealand Cup. Unless Rasmussen gets suspended it then looks certain the world's most successful ever big-race harness racing driver will be on South Coast Arden come Cup day. "He will go again on the 15th and then we have two options, Ashburton for the Flying Stakes or the Kaikoura Cup if it is held at Addington a week later," says Mangos. If it is the latter then Mangos's preference is for South Coast Arden to start in the Kaikoura Cup rather than at Ashburton.
