Ballarat Race 1 - Hewitt & Whitty Mdn Plate
TESSA'S CHOICE (14) resumes having run very well on debut in the G3 Ottawa Stakes behind Eneeza, beaten 2.25 lengths. She's off a relatively long spell here but anything like that form would see her go close. ROCK POP (13) resumes. She ran well in a strong maiden on debut here before being beaten as a very short favourite at Geelong. Clearly has ability and must be greatly respected. DEEP PLEASURE (10) is a Deep Field filly on debut for the Price & Kent Jnr yard. Jump outs have been sound, watch the late betting. AMAPOLA (9) is a filly by Zoustar on debut for the Danny O'Brien yard worth keeping safe.

The run before that ran last of 10 at Geelong 3yo Mdn-Sw on July 26 over 1447m, on a slow track; 41 len behind Lloyd The Leopard carrying 58kg at $26. Risking.

Group 3 placegetter. Returns to racing after only one start. Back after 11 months break. At debut last start 3rd of 7 at Flemington in the G3 Ottawa on November 9 over 1000m, on a slow track; 2.25 len behind Eneeza carrying 56kg at $6.50. Recently was second in a 800m barrier trial on September 16 at Cranbourne. Rates as clearly the one to beat.
