Ballarat Race 3 - Town & Country Line Marking

MERL'S LAD (4) jumped from out wide and was game in defeat last start when a 0.6 lengths second (25.73) behind Aston Breeze at this track. Top chance in this line up. IVORY NARWHAL (1) finished midfield on debut when fourth (26.69) at Geelong over 460m. Gets the coveted rails draw for the first time. Meets a moderate line up and should do much better. FORBES LIGHTNING (7) filled a minor placing last start at this track behind Sailaway Gin (22.56) in a Maiden. Has the early speed to land on the pace and can stick on. Bold showing expected. RAVEN OWEN (2) is not to be discarded.

Is a three start maiden overdue for a win, hitting the frame last start when second (25.73) over 450m at this track. Gave a huge sight and went down narrowly. Looks the testing material.
