Grafton Race 8

Sunny Lodge

Stake: $3,553

RUPEE MCGRAW (2) destroyed his rivals here last week when leading throughout as a short price favourite, ideally drawn again and will take beating. ORARA DOUG (1) is racing very consistently at present and will be finding the line strongly. KIA MCGRAW (7) excels over this T/D and must be respected. EPIFANIO (8) is going well enough for this
