Ballarat Race 2 - Dr. Kaida Wouters Trot
EL TORNADO (3) was well in the betting when resuming but manners let him down. Showed ability in ending the short maiden campaign with back-to-back wins, both from second line draws. Fitter second-up and draws well so has strong claims if he gets it right. DELS DESTINY NZ (1) has been racing well from wider or second row draws, placing in three of his last four starts. Looks close to a win and should get every chance from the inside barrier. IM EDDIE (6) is heading the right way, improving last time out to finish third at Maryborough. Has placed in a trial since. Genuine threat. OFF YOUR FACESKI (2) resumes after putting together a string of wins last time in. Draws well and has trialled so keep safe.

Two back was well beaten into seventh after being driven well back, behind The Italian Dream at Bendigo over 1650m on May 27 at $12. Then a handy effort when well beaten into third after being driven well back, behind With Aplomb at Maryborough over 1690m on May 31 at $13. Has a low draw and should go well again.

Two back was well beaten into fourth after being driven well back, behind Centurion Dream at Terang over 2180m on May 5 at $6. Then a handy effort when beaten by 9 m finishing third after showing early speed, behind Artigas at Maryborough over 1690m on May 31 at $12. Likely to play a major role.
