Ballarat Race 6 - Hygain Edge (Bm64)
Good little race. HANDEE (8) resumed with a dominant win at Caulfield Heath, controlling things up on speed and coming right away to score by 2.5 lengths. She has the run under the belt against a few dangers and maps for every chance again. MOANA SPIRIT (1) resumes. She looked good winning her first two starts and started $4.20 in the G2 Blue Diamond Prelude behind Streisand. Big weight and they opt for Durnan's 3kg claim, the betting will be key. WONDERFUL SKY (6) resumes. She looked good in three runs last time in, good in a G3 in Adelaide before a break. She was in a stronger race on Sunday and they opt for the softer option. MULL OF KINTYRE (10) tried hard fresh as favourite against the older horses and should get every hope booting up from the inside gate. CAVILL AVENUE (9) won well on debut here and looks to have come back well, consider.

Third race start. Promising on debut made ground from midfield; 2nd of 8 in a 2yo Hcp at Cranbourne on February 20 over 1000m, 1.3 len behind Simply Steffi carrying 57kg at $6. Returned from break won by 2.5 len in a 3yo F Mdn-Sw at Caulfield Heath on September 16 over 1100m defeating Swift Star carrying 57kg at $6. The one to beat based on that latest effort. Has come back well and will take catching again.

Resuming after a break; only one run when favourite; won by a long-neck in a 2yo F Mdn-Sw at this track on April 30 over 1200m defeating Autumn Charm carrying 57kg at $3.20. Looks forward enough after a recent trial win. Can measure up.
