Ballarat Race 4 - Vale Darren Galley Mdn Plate
BEHAVIOUR (1) resumes. He's a well bred gelding (out of G1 winner Spright), originally with the Chris Waller yard. He showed a bit of ability in some stronger Sydney maidens in his initial campaign before injury struck. Now with Gavin Bedggood who has a knack for these tried horses. Should go well. BOLD STRIKE (2) resumes having run fourth on debut in a bunched finish at Kyneton, given good market support there. Can improve with a spell under the belt. A BEACH IN JUNE (9) resumes. Her best career run came before a spell at Murtoa and she could be an improver this time in. SWIFT CIRCLE (7) resumes having placed at big odds at Ballarat Synthetic before a spell. He's won a trial leading in and should be thereabouts. SACRED INGOT (5) will get further but has claims.
