Ballina Race 6 - Ballina Fair (Bm58)
PRESSALONG (17) failed to make it three wins in succession when jumping in class for a disappointing last over 1200m at the Gold Coast in C4 grade last time out. Back to his right class and has excellent credentials on his home track. Goes close. MISS MAZERATI (5) holding her form well and adept in all conditions. Will appreciate the claim again after rocketing late for a game fourth over 1007m at Taree. Goes close on the backup. BOAMBEE BEACH (3) kept fresh for this and gets the claim after gripping on late to secure second over 1000m at Coffs Harbour. Look for her late from the draw. MR MIDNIGHT (12) set to peak after tiring late when eighth over 1106m at Grafton. Will add value to the exotics.
