STAR FERRY, A LUGGING BIT AND A LITTLE BIT OF LUCK

Susie, our girl STAR FERRY, will be stepping out tomorrow at the Sunshine Coast in a 1600m maiden with senior rider, Carl Spry on board.
Carl has a mission tomorrow. With the aid of different equipment (a lugging bit), he will attempt to ride Susie back in the field and then let her run on in the straight. Susie has been showing all signs in her trackwork that the lugging bit has made the difference. My only concern is that the girl will be fresh and full of herself, so Carl will have his mission laid out for him trying to keep her settled.
Sunshine Coast, Race No. 1 at 12.20pm - Horse No. 13 - STAR FERRY
GO THE GIRL!!!
P.S. Unfortunately we wont be up to see her run this time as we are still not happy about leaving Miss Lily to her own devices all day. See, it doesnt matter what sort of baby they are, they all need lots of attention!!

It's sad that she didn't place at any of her outings but she is still learning. With a little more time and the right distance, she may yet make us sit up and take notice.
