Ballarat Race 3 - The Haymarket Vobis Gold Eureka Stockade
Looks the perfect race for HARRY'S YACHT (1) who gets in very well under the set weights. He was a very smart winner first up at Bendigo in BM78 company, sprinting quickly to score by 1.5 lengths. He's trialled well in the interim and gets every chance from the soft gate. Rates clear and should be winning. GROUND CONTROL (7) is coming off a dominant BM64 win at Pakenham at $1.45, leading throughout. He's lightly raced and drawn soft, respecting. PRINCE TYCOON (6) was a bit better second up at Cranbourne who probably found 1300m a touch far at Cranbourne last time. Not convinced he's made the step from 2yo company with his best performance coming on debut but this is a good race for him. KAGEMUSHA (8) has won two on the bounce impressively. This is harder but can't discount. ELONIA (10) was dominant winning her maiden fresh at Kyneton and could give a sight again.

Second-up. Comes off a 38-day let-up. First-up after three months ran on from midfield and won by 1.75 len at Bendigo Bm78 October 29 over 1100m defeating Yaldi carrying 59kg at $8.

At the latest run 4th of 9 at Kilmore Bm66 on November 23 over 1200m, on a slow track; 3 len behind Attachments with 58.5kg at $2.70. Before that made some head-way from midfield; 3rd of 12 at Bendigo Bm66 on October 29 over 1100m, 2 len behind Sea Poem with 58.5kg at $6.50. Hard to have this tough line-up.

Third-up today. First-up led to the turn then faded 5th of 9 at Moonee Valley in the G3 Red Anchor Stks on October 25 over 1200m, 5 len behind Napoleonic with 57kg at $4. Second-up 3rd of 8 at Cranbourne Bm70 on November 22 over 1300m, 2.5 len behind Al Prancer with 58.5kg at $3.50. Fitter again and back to 1200m looks a positive.

Form hard to fault. Last start favourite; ran on from midfield and won by 2.25 len at Geelong 0 - 62 November 8 over 1135m on a heavy track defeating Johnny Me Boy carrying 58.5kg at $3.70.

Second run back. First-up after five months favourite; won by 2.75 len at Warrnambool Mdn-Sw November 11 over 1000m in the wet defeating Jade Trees with 58kg at $3.20. Previously second-up made some head-way from midfield; 3rd of 10 at Ballarat Synthetic 2yo Mdn-Sw on June 27 over 1100m, 2.25 len behind Sideline carrying 58kg at $16. Impressive on that occasion but doesn't rate highly.
