Kenilworth Race 5

Winter Country Championship 1400 Final

Stake: $18,365

HAPPY VERSE (9) ran fifth at his latest appearance over 1500m at this track, finishing 3 lengths from the winner. Genuine type with two wins from three starts. Hard to go past. SHOW OFF (7) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start when he was never in contention over 1600m at this track, into tenth. This looks a sterner test than last time but on his best form he is one of the key runners. GOLDEN ANGEL (2) was out of the money when resuming from a spell last start over 1600m at this track, beaten 4 lengths. This looks a sterner test than last time but with added fitness she is capable of a big performance. NILE THE BOSS (1) is close to breaking through, last start finishing just half a length away in second over 1400m at this track. Looks well placed so expect a big run this time.
