Balaklava Race 1 - Es Hoepner Oam & Dorothy Hoepner Oam Hcp (C1)
The 2YO's kick things off where ARIZONA DREAMER (9) looks the one to beat. She was only beaten a head on debut before tackling stronger company last start at Morphettville. Back to this level suits and she should get every chance from an inside draw. Looks the one to beat. VEGA NOW (12) has been very impressive at the trials coming into this and looks primed for a bold effort on debut. She's shown talent all the way through and the inside barrier should see her get every chance to score a debut victory. CHIX DIGGUS (3) is another debutant that has trialled strongly, beating VEGA NOW in his trial back in April. The wide draw is a query, but Holder hops on board and he can make his presence felt. BLANDFORD BARON (1) is some query on the wet deck with his past two disappointing efforts being on a Soft track. He's a classy type though and he can't be discounted. MOUNTAIN DEVIL (8) can't be left out of calculations with his form tying in well here.

Second run back. First-up after seven months didn't do much in the run home; ran last of 7 at Morphettville 2yo Bm64 on May 30 over 1100m, on a slow track; 19 len behind Neveu carrying 58.5kg at $2.45. Previously second-up favourite; won by 0.5 len at Morphettville 2yo Sw+P October 25 over 1050m defeating Rebel Tuesday carrying 53.5kg at $1.65. Soft track is the query but his best is good enough.
