GOING:

FLYING HORSE ENTERTAINMENT VENUE MARES PACE 1710m

Track: GOOD   Clouds (Max: 20)    

BLISSFULL LILLY (3) is working towards a win having finished 7m away when fourth two back before a third last start at Cranbourne. Aided by a good draw so expect her to pose a serious challenge. DOT BALL (6) is heading the right way, improving last time out to finish second at Shepparton. Genuine threat if things go her way from a wide draw. EL AWOMAN (2) backs up after beating only one home at Ararat on Monday but she is better placed against her own sex. Recorded back-to-back seconds prior and should enjoy an economical run from this draw. QUICK DECISION (5) is also in the mix.
