Ballarat Race 5 - That Little Bookshop Mdn Pace

RIDE HIGH CAPTIN (2) has the hoof on the till after finishing second in two of his last three outings. Led from this barrier and stuck on okay last start at Cranbourne. Should be at peak fitness now and could break through here. CALIFORNIA COOL (3) showed good improvement at the second outing last time out, chasing along the spring lane for a 2.4m third at Cranbourne. Has scope to progress further. ANGELIC (6) showed some improvement when second-up last time and could progress again while ULTIMATE GRANGE (7) has scope for improvement after a solid midfield effort on debut.
