Ballarat Race 2 - James Vac Solutions Mdn Plate
BEL MEZYAAN (2) wasn't far away on debut last start over 1000m at Sandown-Hillside, finishing third and beaten 1.5 lengths by Trapper John, who looks well above average. Only needs to run up to that to be the testing material here. INCONTESTABLE (7) was responsible for a solid effort last time out when second at Geelong over 1140m, beaten a head. That followed a trip to the runner-up stall on debut as well, so doesn't need a lot to go his way to be in the mix again. SWIFT STATEMENT (9) produced a nice effort on debut in better company last start over 1103m at Kyneton when second, so obviously has talent, just has a tricky gate to contend with. XUXA KISS (14) was in the firing line on the corner and finished second last time over 1200m at Cranbourne, beaten 3.5 lengths, which was a sharp improvement on the debut run, so if she progresses from that she can win here. WAVELETS (11) is a 4YO on debut but has jumped out well.

Was well in the market at debut, 3rd of 7 at Sandown-Hillside 3yo Mdn-Sw on January 28 over 1000m, 1.5 len behind Trapper John with 58kg at $5. Only beaten 1.5 lengths by a smart one on debut so right in this.

Comes here off a 31-day let-up. Last start 2nd of 7 at Geelong Mdn-Sw on January 14 over 1112m, 2 len behind Sussex Duchess carrying 58kg at $4.80. The start before that eased back early on 5th of 8 at Warrnambool 3yo Mdn-Sw on January 11 over 1200m, 1.75 len behind Celestial Splendor carrying 58kg at $4.60. Been costly, but always around the mark, so can't dismiss.

Resuming after a six months break. Finished off last campaign seventh of 12 at Warrnambool Mdn-Sw August 21 over 1400m, soft track; 5.5 len behind Grugnito with 57kg at $15. On debut sixth of 9 at Murtoa Mdn-Sw July 26 over 1200m, in the wet; 7 len behind Bow Ribbon carrying 57kg at $3.50. Might be better off following this run.

Most recently 7th of 11 at Camperdown Mdn-Sw on January 17 over 1400m, 4 len behind Sakakibara carrying 58kg at $15. Before that 4th of 11 at Terang 3yo Mdn-Sw on January 2 over 1200m, 2.25 len behind Triple Salute carrying 58kg at $15. Going well. Runs to date have been fair, but hard to see him troubling the top few.

Having third race start. At debut, 2nd of 7 at Werribee 3yo Mdn-Sw on January 12 over 1014m, 0.8 len behind Nicereine carrying 58kg at $8. Second-up raced on the pace when 2nd of 8 at Geelong Mdn-Sw on January 26 over 1140m, head behind Keep It Real with 58kg at $3.60. Capable of a better showing. Only found one better at first two starts and will be better for that experience.

Third-up today. Resuming 3rd of 10 at Burrumbeet Mdn-Sw on January 1 over 1000m, 2.5 len behind Foremmakate with 57.5kg at $6.50. Second-up 8th of 10 at Camperdown Mdn-Sw on January 17 over 1000m, 6 len behind Mosquito Award with 57.5kg at $12. Not keen after that last effort, especially from the wide gate.
