Ballarat Race 3 - Global Turf Mdn Plate
Debutants look to hold the aces. LUDLUM (4) debuts for the Begg barn and impressed when winning a recent Cranbourne jumpout. Maps well and on what we've seen, he's going to be tough to beat. Ditto ARMAGH (1), who won two trials in New Zealand before switching the Hayes yard. Presents today off an easy Wangaratta trial win and jumps from the inside barrier. TRES MAGNIFIQUE (13) has jumped out well, and Shinn sticks from the latest. She's another promising 3yo with winning claims. NEVERENOUGHLEGO (6) may be the best of the raced. Has an awkward gate, but he raced well enough last preparation and has been gelded. He won a recent Flemington jumpout with race rider Dee in the saddle. Keep onside.

Finished off last preparation fourth of 9 at Pakenham 2yo Mdn-Sw May 22 over 1200m, 1.2 len behind Planet Red with 58kg at $2.10. First up last campaign fourth of 9 at Caulfield Heath 2yo Mdn-Sw May 7 over 1000m, 1.75 len behind Frostnip with 58kg at $4.20. Looks forward enough after a recent trial win. Everything points to a positive return.
