Cambridge Race 8 - HAPPY HIRE THE RACE COUNTRY CUP HANDICAP PACE

WE WALK BY FAITH (12) did a good job on his return from an Australian raid when he came from a tough second row barrier for fifth against the big guns in the G2 City of Auckland FFA. He is the class horse in this much easier assignment so looks tough to stop. THE SURFER (9) progressed off a resuming second at Alexandra Park to win from this handicap last start. That took his record here to four from seven. Big chance. BOUDICA (6) didn't perform to market expectations when down the track behind THE SURFER last week but she is capable of much better. DIAMONDS ARE FOREVER (5) must be respected having come from a wider barrier to make it back-to-back wins last week.

Comes here second-up after two weeks. Lacklustre first-up performance when 8th (Fr8) over 2200m at Alexandra Park, beaten 21 m by Always B You (2:39.70) in 3yo+ on March 21 at $22. May need more racing.

Has been racing in stronger company. Last start 5th (Sr4) over 2200m at Alexandra Park beaten 11 m by Don't Stop Dreaming (2:36.60) on March 21 at $49.40. The run previous 6th (Fr2) over 1609m at Menangle, at the bell was 5th-9m on the pegs beaten 6 m by Bay Of Biscay (1:49.10) in 4yo G1 No NR on March 1 at $51. Worth another chance. Well placed with a big class drop.
