WARREN GREATREX is confident that Star Of Lanka can shine bright in Saturday’s Lanzarote Hurdle.
The exciting five-year-old impressed when completing back-to-back wins at Hereford in December.
And he is now a best-priced 10-1 shot with the bookies for the big 2m5f handicap at Kempton this weekend.
Greatrex, who was at Doncaster on Wednesday to watch his Theatre Territory run second, reckons his horse is on a dangerous mark.
He told Sun Racing: “He has won his last two and the horse who he beat last time won well at Lingfield last week.
“He has been given a mark of 128, so for me we definitely had to go down the handicap route. I think he will be very, very competitive off that mark.

“I like him a lot and his work is getting better and better.”
The top trainer also had an update on his wonder mare La Bague Au Roi who beat the boys in the Grade 1 Kauto Star at Kempton on Boxing Day.
She will head to Ireland next for the Flogas Novices’ Chase but is likely to skip the Cheltenham Festival.
He continued: “She is very well, she heads to Leopardstown on the 3 February. She hasn’t done a lot since Kempton, but she is thriving at the moment.
“She will be given entries at Cheltenham, but right now the thinking is Leopardstown and then Aintree.”
Veteran trainer Kim Bailey is another gearing up for a big weekend, and he was all smiles after 5-6 jolly Diamond Gait bolted up at Donny.
His Grade 2 winning stars Rocky’s Treasure and Charbel will head to Warwick and Kempton respectively on Saturday.
Bailey told Sun Racing: “Rocky’s Treasure is in good shape. He worked and schooled Wednesday morning and that went very well.

“The ground was quick when he won at Doncaster, he is a top of the ground horse so he won’t mind if it stays dry.”
Charbel is the 2-1 favourite for the 32Red Casino Chase at Kempton following an easy win in the Peterborough Chase.
Bailey added: “It was great to see him go and win like that at Huntingdon, we always knew he was capable of it.
“I don’t know if he has improved for that, but he is giving off the impression at home that he is in very good form indeed. It could end up being a very good little race.”

To achieve her kick-ass figure, Hayden – who plays cheerleader Claire Bennet in Heroes – follows the ‘quartering’ rule. She eats only a quarter of the food on her plate, then waits 20 minutes before deciding whether she needs to eat again.
Hayden says: “I don’t have a model’s body, but I’m not one of those crazy girls who thinks that they’re fat. I’m OK with what I have.”
Nicollette says: “I don’t like diets – I see it, I eat it! I believe in eating healthily with lots of protein, vegetables and carbs to give you energy.”

SATC star Kim swears by gym sessions with Russian kettle bells (traditional cast-iron weights) and the South Beach Diet to give her the body she wants. To avoid overeating, Kim has a radical diet trick – squirting lemon juice on her leftovers – so she won’t carry on picking.
Kim says: “I am no super-thin Hollywood actress. I am built for men who like women to look like women.”
