Ballarat Race 4 - Harvey Norman Mdn Plate
DONE LEAVY (10) presents third up and gets her chance. She was beaten at $1.85 at Werribee last time but just got too far back and ran on well enough. If Gordon can just hold her spot early she's well placed to atone. PRINCESS OF FLIGHT (11) is a filly by Prince Of Caviar on debut for the Robbie Griffiths yard who draws the inside. She won a recent Cranbourne jumpout and finds a suitable race to kick off in. Keep safe. MASTER TAJ (3) is a gelding by De Gaulle on debut for the Bedggood yard. He won a recent trial at Caulfield Heath and draws ideally in four. Can win. MAYNARD (4) was in the market fresh but struggled at Mornington - look for improvement.
