Ballarat Race 2 - Real Estate Home Loans Mdn Plate
RACE FOR RULE (8) was no match for a good winner on debut at Kyneton when beaten 3.3L, but she jumped in the market there and the form has been franked since. This looks a suitable event stepping out in trip today and she's expected to have come on for the debut run. Can go one better in what looks a very winnable assignment. LADY OF BRONTE (7) showed good improvement from the debut to last start, just missing in a photo finish at Wodonga most recently. Meech rides from a good barrier and further improvement is expected now. Can make her presence felt. BLUE TYPHOON (2) is third-up now and finished off nicely at this track last start after being slowly away. Getting up to 1400m looks a good move for her now and she won't be far away. ELEGANT CONTESSA (5) gets the blinkers on first time today and is worth including.
