BALLARAT SYNTHETIC   01 Sep 2025
 
GOING: G

Manhari BM56 Handicap 1500m

Track: AW     Rail: True Entire Circuit.  

Moderate tempo headed by Pharoah's Daughter. KITTYHAWK (8) won well in her maiden last start, driving away to win by two lengths. Premier jockey, Harry Coffey, takes the ride. HOT STOMPER (10) can take improvement back in distance. Draws for a soft run on the inside and this looks winnable. PHAROAH'S DAUGHTER (12) will be fitter for two starts since a spell so can show peak form today. OFF THE DEEP END (9) is another futter for recent racing so looking for more. SUGGESTED PLAY: Kittyhawk.
