Ballarat Race 8 - Happy Horse Produce

ESPECIAL KIANI (1) made it two minor placings on the trot when beaten third (23.38) in a Rank Limit - Restricted Win at Geelong last time out. Can make amends this time. SIMPLY FRIENDS (6) has been beaten for early speed lately, last time finishing fifth (26.65) in a Rank Limit - Restricted Win at Geelong. One of the main contenders. DARKEST COLOUR (7) was narrowly beaten when placing two back but missed the frame latest finishing fourth (28.61) in a Bottom Up - Restricted Win at Bendigo. Can find the frame this time. SPICE ROAD (2) looks an each-way chance.

Missed the frame latest (26.26) when seventh over 450m at Shepparton in a Bottom Up - Restricted Win. Goes well out of this box with a win and four minors. Looks one of the chances.

Missed the frame last start when fourth but had been in strong form prior to that, winning two on end before placing two back. Better than last run and looks set to run well.
