Traralgon Race 6 - Flanagan's Irish Bar
BARKING BLUE (1) used the rails draw to advantage to get home last time at Healesville over 350m (19.83) after drifting well back, scoring by a neck. Has the inside again and looks the key chance. SELECT RONAN (2) was game in defeat off a low draw at the latest outing, finishing second and beaten 2 lengths (29.23) behind Fantastic Zohan at Sale. Solid formlines coming through his last run. Can measure up. PRINCESS LASS (7) doesn't have the best strike-rate but recent form is sound. Continues to race well, filling the minors at the last seven starts, the latest when second (30.21) at Sandown. Has never missed the frame here at the trip from three starts. Consistent performer from this draw with a win and four minor placings to her credit. Ready to find winning form. SMOOTH PRINCE (8) deserves plenty of thought at his first run at this circuit.

Good effort to score just three days ago over 350m at Healesville by a neck in a Grade 5. Strongly fancied and lived right up to expectations last start. Stick with him.

Missed the frame last time but finished in the minors two back when second (26.62) over 460m at Warragul. Has a decent strike-rate from the draw and is worth plenty of thought.
