BALLARAT SYNTHETIC   01 Jul 2025
 
GOING: N

Porter Plant BM64 Handicap 1500m

Track: Synthetic     Rail: True Entire Circuit.  

Not seeing a great deal of early speed. SHE MOGUL (1) went close here second-up and will be better for it. She draws awkwardly but will be well ridden and is still shy of her best. The extra metres suit. The one to beat. ALBANIAN STAR (3) won here and then came back and found a place in a 64. She will get every chance to break back. FOREST DIAMOND (5) raced well last preparation and resumed with a narrow defeat over a mile in a 52. She tumbles in weight this grade with a 2kg claim atop, and that brings her right into it. RADSTAR (4) has a positive record this track/trip and will be better for the first-up run off a long break. She'd be in the mix at best. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing She Mogul.
