Alexandra Park Race 9

The Pat Gubb Mobile Pace

Prize Money: $18,348

LADY OF THE LIGHT (7) Finished 5th last start at the track. May see an upturn in form but back to a shorter trip. Monika Ranger(J) takes the reins today. In good order this campaign. Serious player. SKIPPER (6) Won narrowly last run at the track but down in trip. In top form since returning from a break. Definite claims. WICKED WANDA (2) Chimed in with a win by 2.9m last start here. Keeping a perfect win record the last 2 starts. Suitably placed in this race. CLAUDE (1) Close to claiming the win last time around here and has drawn the rails. Coming back in distance. Should be very competitive and is a genuine threat
