Menangle Race 8 - Be Happy Mach @ Wingate Farm Ladyship Pace
SUNSET STRIDE (10) has joined Rickie Alchin since she led and boxed on for a 1.5m third in a higher-graded race at Wagga last start. Has won third-up before so should be close to peaking and while she draws wide she came from a similar barrier to win over this distance the last time she raced here. WHERES MY REASON (3) will enjoy a low draw as she has been performing well from tough barriers, winning from the second row two back before coming from wider to miss a handy filly by a nose last time. DRAW A DREAM (8) has had eight weeks off since a stint in Queensland where she performed well without winning. Has trialled and the form she showed as Group 1-winning youngster would win this. ISLA ROCHELLE (9) draws wider but could be close to a win off back-to-back placings at this circuit and distance, the latest against the boys.

4th (Sr2) over 1730m at Bathurst, beaten 14 m by Divine Girl (2:03.60) on May 29 at $8. Before that 5th (Sr2) over 2120m at Dubbo, at the bell was 6th-11.2 beaten 16 m by Divine Girl (2:34.90) on May 22 at $7. This looks too tough.
