Ballarat Race 2 - Eureka Concrete Maiden Trot
SOLO SAPPHIRE (1) made an encouraging debut at Cranbourne on Sunday, coming from a much wider barrier for fourth. Open to natural improvement and is better served by the ace draw. THE PASO DOBLE (6) is a colt by What The Hill on debut for the Ryan stable. Readied with a series of trials, winning the latest hitout at Maryborough. That should have him ready to go. Tricky draw for NEDZA THRILLER (13) but he has been racing well, recording back-to-back placings in maiden races before a last-start fourth at this venue. MOSLEY (2) is a mare by Majestic Son making her first appearance for Anne-Maree Conroy. Runner-up in her latest trial at Maryborough. Look for a good showing. ARIVADERCHI (4) is a long-time maiden who draws wider than when runner-up at Bendigo last start but that was his third placing on the trot so he deserves respect.

Five-year-old mare facing the starter for the second time. At debut was well back in the run when 4th (Fr6) over 2080m at Cranbourne was 4th-5.9 at the bell, beaten 7 m by Whiskey Dawn (2:43.80) on May 24 at $9. Drawn to advantage and is open to natural improvement.

Good run when beaten by 3 m finishing third behind No Shenaniganz at Charlton over 2100m on May 8 at $21. Then a handy effort when well beaten into second behind Morning Dove at Bendigo over 2150m on May 13 at $16. Has been close to breaking through so respect.
