BALLARAT SYNTHETIC   04 Jul 2025
 
GOING: N

Global Turf Maiden Plate 1000m

Track: AW     Rail: True Entire Circuit.  

A solid tempo is anticipated with Brave Carol and Da Plane Da Plane kicking up to hold out the next wave. BRAVE CAROL (3) on top. She ran a career best here last time out over 1100m, leading early and only fading late to be beaten 1.1 lengths into third. Back to 1000m should suit and this looks a winnable maiden. Go close. BREECHES (4) put in a strong run over this track and distance last time out, no match for the winner but doing well to hold down second. In a strong camp and can go one better. YOU COUNT (9) ran well on debut over this route, boxing on for fourth. Open to plenty of improvement and maps for every chance. GIRLCANCHAT (6) is a filly by Overshare on debut for the Mitchell Freedman yard. Has jumped out well enough to be a factor. DA PLANE DA PLANE (1) can run well fresh. SUGGESTED PLAY: Brave Carol to win.
