RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: HAPPILY (10) looks a very exciting pacer from the Amy Day stable and shapes as the horse to beat in the third event of the night. She was a dominant winner in a maiden at Goulburn to start the preparation and then savaged the line in a slick last half behind Jilliby Dooley last time at Hamilton. That run had “back me next time” written all over it. WICKED WIZARD (11) dug deep to score a narrow win at Shepparton in late March and all his recent form is sound, ALWAYS A SHOWGIRL (8) closed off nicely out wide at Kilmore last time in an encouraging effort, while RANDOM MAHONEY (4) and HELLO POSSUMS (3) – who has trialled well ahead of her return – might be the best of the chances off the front row. BACK: HAPPILY (10) – 4 units (win)
