Ballina Race 2 - Virtual Golf Centre Ballina Mdn Plate
DENUTO (4) ran a game second two back over this distance at Grafton before a last start failure when he pulled up lame on the Sunshine Coast poly. Complete forgive run last time - that Grafton effort should be good enough to get him over the line. VOLCANIC PARK (9) ran the best race of her four to date when beaten under three lengths over 1666m at Ipswich last time out. Coming back in trip doesn't look ideal but in a thin race she is a definite hope. VERSION (8) finished her race off well but just missed the placings in a blanket finish over 1200m at Toowoomba recently. Cherry ripe and looking for this trip now. HE IS THE KISS (2) ran a better race at Kilcoy last start when second-up. Hard to go overboard as he is twenty-three without a win but worth an each-way investment. LABARNA (3) is in the mix off a thirty-eight-day freshen up out of a favourable gate.

Third-up today. First-up 6th of 9 at Grafton Mdn-Sw on March 22 over 1106m, on heavy track; 9 len behind Youthful Groove with 59kg at $5. Second-up held ground to the line 2nd of 9 at Kilcoy Mdn-Sw on April 12 over 1200m, on rain affected going; 1.5 len behind Music Fever with 58.5kg at $6. Wasn't too far off the mark last time. One of the better chances.

Comes off a 30 day let-up. Last start ran last of 8 at Sunshine Coast Poly Mdn-Sw on March 30 over 1400m, 21 len behind Warna with 57.5kg at $2.80. The run before that held ground to the line 2nd of 14 at Grafton Mdn-Sw on March 16 over 1400m, on a slow track; 0.8 len behind Our Sparky with 58.5kg at $3.30. Better than the last effort suggests and is worth another chance.

Back from a spell. Finished off last campaign eighth of 10 at Toowoomba Mdn December 7 over 1625m, 12 len behind Zouwaler with 57.5kg at $61. Previously first up; seventh of 10 at Dalby Mdn-Sw November 2 over 1200m, 6 len behind Sidled carrying 55.5kg at $7.50. Plenty of more attractive propositions in this race.
