Ballarat Race 2 - Pink Diamond Rookie Short Course Ht2
LILLY ZOOM (8) was strongly fancied but finished second last time (22.02) at this track, bringing a two-run winning streak to an end. Comes out of a solid form race last start. Sure to be about the mark. LEKTRA HARMONY (1) wasn't far away at the finish when 4th and beaten only 4.5 lengths (25.82) at Warrnambool. Is yet to taste defeat in two starts from this draw. Cannot be underestimated. SHALLOW SALLY (2) is a capable type and proved too classy last time to win by 3 lengths at Warrnambool in a handy 22.05 beating Lektra Princess. Recorded the quickest time on the card last start. Expecting another bold showing. DRAGON TRAIN (6) is sure to play a big role again after a run of minor placings.

Showing promise and was a winner three back. Last start missed the frame when a 4.5 lengths fourth (25.82) at Warrnambool. Shapes well here on best and gets chance to atone.

Lines up chasing another win after scoring over 390m at Warrnambool in 22.05, set up by a fast early sectional. Winner last time and looks well placed again. Worth following up.

Jumped well at Traralgon two runs back then again settled forward and finished second at this track last start over 390m. Strong form emerging from the that last run. Leading chance.
