BALLARAT SYNTHETIC   27 Jun 2025
 
GOING: N

Evergreen Turf 3YO Maiden Plate 1400m

Track: SYNTHETIC     Rail: True Entire Circuit.  

Moderate tempo with Dynasty Reward leading the way and a few others keeping in touch. DYNASTY REWARD (4) found one much too good here last time but covered the others. Arrives at peak fitness and should go close with average luck in the run. LOWESTOFT (8) debuts for a leading yard with two jumpouts under the saddle. Draws for a soft run, and this is a winnable assignment. ACANTILADO (1) looked good at the jumpouts but didn't do a lot on a heavy track at Wangaratta on debut. He was well in the market, and John Allen is aboard today. A much better effort is likely. Duffy stays with stablemate THE VILLAGE FOX (5), who will be fitter again and has shown enough to get some of the cash. SUGGESTED PLAY: Leaning to Dynasty Reward.
