Ararat Race 2 - Russ Studio Jewellers Mdn Plate
Tricky. MISS SLIPSTREAM (9) peaks and brings handy form from South Australia. She maps well and can go one better in the line-up. BAKERSBEND (1) debuts and has trialled well. Jumps from the inside gate, and Yendall's engagement suggests he will race boldly. EDGES DIAMOND (2) has looked promising at the jumpouts. Draws inside with John Allen booked and has to be considered. JACK THE BOSS (3) wasn't beaten far at Warrnambool on debut. He has an awkward barrier, but will have taken fitness and learning.

Gelding by Cliff's Edge making his first race start. Trial form indicates he's up to a solid debut. Won a jump-out at Stawell on February 25. Likely to race well.

First starter. Three-year-old filly by Lean Mean Machine out of Rowdy Belle. At the most recent trial was out of the placings over 800m at Murray Bridge March 14. Prefer to see.

Form hard to fault. Most recently made ground from midfield; 2nd of 12 at Murray Bridge 2yo+ Mdn-Sw on March 8 over 1000m, 2 len behind Ad Astra with 53.5kg at $3.60. The run before that 3rd of 12 at Murray Bridge 3yo+ Mdn-Sw on January 11 over 1100m, 2 len behind Noetzie with 54.5kg at $12. Hard to hold out.
