RACE NINE
HAPPY PUBLICANS (9) has placed in 4 of his 9 starts as he searches for a maiden breaking victory. Runner-up at his past 2 starts, the gate is a stinger, but he still looks to have found the right race here. Tough in the breeze last start behind BONNIES A ROCKIN, he can open his account and it might be drinks on the Knickerbocker Hotel if he can arrive.
RINGOS A STAR (6) has no favours from the tough gate here as he looks to put his last start disappointment behind him. Runner-up at his 2nd career start to the smart looking ITZ MAJOR RICH, he made costly errors last start. At his 1st look at the triangle, he can be in the fight.
FORGIVE ME (8) was forced to race tough last start when grinding it out and finishing within 2m of the winner KATANA. Making errors her previous 3 in succession, she can be thereabouts.
ROCK STAR BABE (4) eased from gate 5 last start prior to working home in nice order. Fitter for the run after returning from a spell in that outing, she has podium claims.
