Pakenham Race 4 - Ladbrokes Future Stars Series Heat 2 Mdn Plate
TEN WARRIORS (5) looks well placed. He's nothing if not consistent, notching up 7 minor placings from 10 starts to date without quite breaking the duck. The fresh run at Geelong was good despite being beaten at $2.30 before another close up effort at Ballarat in a Class 3, both without much luck. He comes back to a maiden now off a little freshen and can get the job done. LOUIS BARTHAS (3) is knocking on the door with two minor placings, solid in a distant third in town two back, close up at Seymour latest. The big track here should suit. BRADFORD (7) resumes having run a good race on debut at Sale over the Winter. He can be an improver with that spell under the belt. BARBARINO (6) is a gelding by Vino Rosso on debut. He's been jumping out well, watch the betting. CELTIC VIVA (10) next best into her second campaign.
