In-form jockey Jason Whiting was booked yesterday to take over riding smart stayer Tango Man in next Sunday's $80,000 Swan Draught Pinjarra Cup (2200m). Tango Man, an Ascot winner with 57kg last Saturday week, has 52.5kg in the cup.

Quality galloper Son Of Vasac, who won Saturday's Ascot welter with 58kg, drops to 55.5kg in the Pinjarra Cup and top jockey Paul Harvey is expected to maintain his association with the chestnut.

Son Of Vasac's trainer, Bernadine Dudley, said yesterday the five-year-old was thriving and had pleased connections by settling smoothly on Saturday.

Miss Torpago, a close second to Son Of Vasac on Saturday, will be trainer David Harrison's Pinjarra Cup runner.

Harrison is starting Blevvo and Storm Shot, to be ridden by Alana Sansom and Peter Farrell, respectively, in Thursday's $40,000 Chaff City Classic (1300m) at Pinjarra.

"Storm Shot and Blevvo will also be Bunbury Stake runners on March 18," Harrison said.

"Blevvo will then go to Sydney. Jim Cassidy has been asked to ride him there."


Party Boy, entered for the Pinjarra Cup and $100,000 Swan Draught Bunbury Cup on March 20, staked a claim on the double when he won Saturday's 2200m handicap at Ascot for trainer Mark Bairstow.

The five-year-old won a Tasmanian Derby and a 2400m race at Caulfield when trained by Lee Freedman.
