Race 5

Prize Money: $800

TRAP HAPPY (2) returned a better run last time, finishing in the money (30.21) at this track behind Seomra Baxter in an A3. Can find winning form. PUNK ROCK ATHENA (3) ran below her best last time finishing fifth (46.12) over 714m at Crayford in a OR. Form at the trip sound including 13 wins. Great chance to atone. MELBURY CURLY (4) stuck on well last time to finish 1.5 lengths back in second (30.14) at this track in an A3 over 500m. Hard to beat again. AVARUA CYRIL (6) has strong credentials from this draw.
