Ballarat Race 4 - Southern Sheetmetal
MYRNIONG STORM (1) is coming off a one length fourth but in a respectable 22.09 at this track over 390m. Expected to go close if runs up to latest time. IDYLLIC JAMES (6) rocketed out of the boxes with a strong early sectional but gathered in and finished in the minors when second (22.63) at Geelong over 400m. Although beaten ran one of the quickest times on the card last start. Hard to beat again. DOONGALLA AL (5) has missed the frame at last two runs but could not have been more impressive a few back in his lightning 22.17 win at Geelong over 400m. Should be in this for a long way. BOURNE SWIFT (2) warrants respect although new to this track.

Was out of the placings at final run of last campaign, finishing seventh (27.14) at Warrnambool before going for a 11 weeks spell. Has started fresh up three times for a win and a placing. Capable of playing a role in the finish.

Could only manage eighth last time but placed two on end prior to that, the latest when second (22.33) over 390m at this track. Drawn a inside box but will need the breaks to go his way.
