Canberra coach Ricky Stuart says the fate of his two star playmakers is out of his hands, but hes got his fingers crossed both will feature in Saturdays NRL semi-final.Stuart expects to know by Thursday whether five-eighth Blake Austin will be fit for the do-or-die clash with Penrith at GIO Stadium, while the wait will be a little longer for hooker Josh Hodgson.Austin had his first full training session on Wednesday night since breaking his left hand and undergoing surgery.The exciting No.6 has been confident all week that he will be ready to play this weekend, but Stuart is a bit more cautious.Its going to be how he pulls up over the next 24 hours that will probably make the decision for us, Stuart said.Hodgson didnt train with the squad on Wednesday night, with Stuart agreeing with his rakes assessment on Tuesday that his chances of playing were slim.The rake suffered ligament damage to his ankle during Saturdays qualifying final on Saturday night.Hes improving, slowly, he said.Weve all got our fingers crossed that hopefully hell play.Ill take whatever (risk) I believe is fair to the team.Stuart said not having either or both would be a massive blow for the Raiders, who are chasing their first preliminary final berth in the NRL era.They finished the regular season with 10 wins on the trot, but fell to Cronulla 16-14 on Saturday at home to force them into a sudden death showdown with the in-form Panthers.The club played just two night games in their winning streak, giving Stuart reason to hold a session under lights on Wednesday to get a feel of the potentially dewy conditions expected this weekend.The former champion halfback said his men have been quick to get over the disappointment of losing to the Sharks and are ready to make the most of their second chance.Theres been a huge cultural shift here over the last 10 weeks in the club, he said.Getting close used to be good enough, where now we expect to win.Its a massive culture shift for the club and if I can take anything out of this season, thats it.Around 20,000 tickets have been sold for the match, but Stuart is tipping a bumper crowd of around 25,000.

Shes still learning. The good news is I think the farther the better. Were excited. I think shes a legitimate Breeders Cup horse and I think she proved that yesterday.After finishing third in her debut at Churchill Downs in May, Pretty City Dancer has reeled off three consecutive victories.Sweet Loretta is 3 for 3 and added the Spinaway to a resume that also includes the Grade 3 Schuylerville here on opening day.Sweet Loretta drifted out a bit in the stretch and bumped Pretty City Dancer late.

Cherry Lodge, a Pletcher trainee, bobbled at the break, dueled on the lead with Runway Doll and finished third.Her first step was okay, her second step she really bobbled and when she got up, she got a little too keen after that; it set her on fire a little bit, Pletcher said. I thought she ran credibly, considering.Pletcher said he had not yet spoken to Antony Beck of Gainesway Stable about what would be next for Cherry Lodge. ' ' '
