Canberra Race 4 - Lerida Estate Winery 3yo Pace
HAPPY JOY (1) found the frame for the first time after five career runs last start when runner-up over 1720m at Dubbo, beaten 4 metres, after racing handy. Sure to enjoy an economical run from this draw. Meets some better types this time but another big run is on the cards. DARK MIRACLE (3) is back from a break of five months and looks to be right up to the mark following a placing in a recent trial. No excuses from this advantageous draw. Will have plenty of admirers. BROOKLYNS GEM (5) was unplaced two starts ago then things went wrong last start when she copped a check and broke, finishing 18 metres away in fourth over 1710m at Goulburn. If things go her way a top-three finish is on the cards. SHE SHIMMERS (7) is in the mix following a fourth at her most recent appearance over 1770m at this track.

Two back was well beaten into sixth after a quick start, behind Swette Cheval at Bathurst over 1730m on September 2 at $17. Then a handy effort when beaten by 4 m finishing second after a quick start, behind Handle Bars Down at Dubbo over 1720m on October 26 at $13. Leading player.
