Anakie-based trainer Jeff Britton is welcoming silencing the backbiters who deem Mepunga Ruby “lucky” to be contesting the invitational $121,500 Group 1 Sportsbet Topgun Stayers (730m) – Race 6, 8.29pm – at The Meadows on Saturday night.

The Topgun Stayers, which carries a $75,000 first prize, is part of the inaugural world’s richest $4.1m Dream Chasers Festival – also featuring five Saturday nights of live free-to-air television coverage on racing.com (Channel 78 & 68).

A nine-time G1 finalist, Mepunga Ruby hasn’t raced since sustaining a metatarsal injury at The Gardens in Newcastle on June 4.
