Ballarat Synthetic Race 5 - Hygain Winners Choice (Bm64)
HELL OF A TRIP (4) resumes off a longish break and has jumped out positively well in town. She races well here and has the first-time blinkers applied. Maps to advantage and expect a bold return. MISS MAHJONG (2) found the grade a bit rich at Warrnambool but was good at Sandown-Lakeside prior, and she won at Kyneton first-up this grade before that. Look for her to be running into it late. HOAX (3) resumes for the McEvoys and didn't come up last preparation. Her prior Tasmanian form reads well ánd she placed in a recent jumpout. No surprise to see a bold return. FAYETTA (5) is better placed today and assess her on the 2L defeat at Sandown-Lakeside, two starts ago.

Returns from a 50-day let-up. Most recently ran last of 8 at Ballarat F&M Bm64 on April 2 over 1200m, 10 len behind Quiseen carrying 59.5kg at $81. The run before that second last in a small field at Kilmore Bm64 on March 14 over 1212m, 4.5 len behind Dimora Queen carrying 59.5kg at $26. Struggling to make an impact and happy to risk again.
