Ballina Race 7 - Paradise Fm (Bm58)
RAISED BY WOLVES (11) drops in weight after launching late when a close-up fifth over 1210m at Port Macquarie in the heavy conditions at latest. Leading player on the backup. CLUBHOUSE (1) turned in a modest performance when seventh over 1350m at Ipswich. Has a good record here and assess on earlier efforts. SHE'S ENUFF (7) drops in weight and trip after fading in the heavy (8) going when eighth over 1610m at Grafton. Assess on her good win two back. ANCIENT MISSION (9) strips fitter for this and gets the blinkers applied after finish a close sixth over 1400m at Beaudesert. Sure to be around the money.

Third-up today and placed third-up in the past. First-up came from midfield and won by a nose at this track Cl3 February 14 over 1250m in soft going defeating Ma's Epic carrying 55kg at $8.50. Last start 7th of 12 at Ipswich Cg&E Bm58 on March 21 over 1350m, on a slow track; 5.5 len behind Hollywood Epic carrying 60.5kg at $7. Rates highly. Great chance to atone.

Second run back. First-up after four months ran last of 11 at Grafton Bm58 on March 22 over 1106m, on heavy track; 5.5 len behind Snow Falcon carrying 57.5kg at $41. Previously second-up second last of 12 at Doomben Bm68 on May 29 over 1630m, slow going 5.5 len behind Blazen Boots with 57kg at $101. That run was a bit plain so prefer him later on.
