Ballarat Race 3 - The Haymarket Mdn Plate
Strong maiden. ON DISPLAY (12) resumes. She's had three runs to date and all have been in strong company, third in at Group 3 level when fresh last time in before a midfield effort at Listed level before a spell. Lane has been with her the whole way through and sticks here. ALTERMATUM (10) has placed in four of five runs to date and kicks off here. Two runs last time in she was narrowly beaten as a short priced favourite while also boasting form around the likes of Hayasugi and Evaporate. She'll take plenty of beating. GROUSE MOUNTAIN (9) has race fitness on her side having just found one better at both runs this time in, beaten as a $1.30 hope at Bendigo last time. Out to 1200m should suit better. CONTROLLED ZONE (2) ran second in town last time out and rates strongly with genuine claims. INSAIN HARRY (4) was good on debut and is in the mix.

Resumes from a spell. Finished off last preparation second last of 9 at Wyong 2yo Mdn July 25 over 1300m, 6 len behind Automated with 57.5kg at $9. On debut fifth of 7 at Hawkesbury Mdn-Sw June 18 over 1100m, soft track; 2 len behind Plaza with 54.5kg at $41. Prefer to let him go around in this and see how much he's improved.

First starter. Three-year-old gelding by Shamus Award out of Daskarzine. At the most recent trial was out of the placings over 800m at Caulfield Heath January 22. Trained here and jumps from a favourable gate but others rate better this time.
