BALLARAT SYNTHETIC   26 Jun 2026
 
GOING: G

Hygain Edge BM56 Handicap 1500m

Track: Synthetic     Rail: True Entire Circuit.  

Moderate tempo headed by Brazenga from his low draw. Tough finish. SHE'S A CON (10) ran a solid race first up at Sale when in the market, getting home nicely to finish sixth, beaten three lengths. First go on the synthetic here but is right up to these and will be very hard to hold out. ISALOT (4) found winning form quickly second-up to break the maiden at Swan Hill in a 0-56. Drawn well and should measure up again. ONE BOUND (3) won his maiden well on wet ground at Casterton last time out. Tougher here and onto synthetic but respecting. BRAZENGA (1) can mix his form but is up to these on his best and his turf form says the drier the better so synthetic might suit. DARTS DALY (2) has claims on the placing two back at Casterton. SUGGESTED PLAY: She's A Con on top.
