Balaklava Race 2 - Btr Excavations Mdn Plate
Not a great deal of depth. Treading carefully. KELORIK (1) returns. Was well beaten on debut but did warm up late. Is a likely improver and has be readied with a soft trial. BONFIRE GIRL (8) is a Bon Hoffa filly on debut for Travis Doudle. Hasn't been seen at any public work but is drawn well and should be focused with the blinkers on. Betting holds the key. BREAKFAST (9) wasn't sighted on debut in town before heading straight back to the paddock. Was thrown in somewhat of the deep end at her first start, therefore has to be considered in a much easier assignment. TENACIOUS ZEUS (5) is another debuts. Market is the best guide but suspect this son of Zousain can make his presence felt.

Facing the starter for the first time. Two-year-old gelding by Sir Prancealot out of She's Poetry. At the most recent trial finished fifth at Murray Bridge over 800m. Doesn't shape as a strong winning hope today.

On debut. Two-year-old gelding by Casino Prince out of Devil's Chance. At the most recent trial was out of the placings over 800m at Murray Bridge March 14. Trial form has been pretty ordinary and would be tempted to give him this first start.

Second-up second last of 14 at Murray Bridge 2yo+ Mdn-Sw on April 9 over 900m, 8 len behind He's A Cool Cat with 55kg at $26. Expected to improve sharply on short turnaround.
