Ballarat Synthetic Race 2 - Global Turf Mdn Plate
SONIC SURGE (6) was strong guy fancied fresh on heavy ground at Sandown but didn't go a yard. Straight to the synthetic and fitter again and blinkers off. Expected to improve out of sight. APACHE SUNRISE (7) is building to a win, placing a Stawell then placing again here last time. Close to a win and gets chance. BOHEMIAN STAR (1) is a first starter by Castelvecchio out of Flowerchild. Well educated with five hit-outs leading into this, the latest when placing in a Ballarat Synthetic jump-out. Senior rider aboard and expected to measure up. QUEENS OF VINO (12) was safely held fresh on heavy ground and will appreciate the synthetic. Can improve sharply. BRILLIANT BULL ANT (2) was close to the winner latest and looks set for another big run.

Third-up today. Resuming 4th of 9 at Albury Mdn-Sw on May 26 over 900m, slow going 1.1 len behind Barbecue Sauce carrying 59kg at $19. Second-up sat on the speed throughout before fading 9th of 12 at Narrandera Mdn-Sw on June 13 over 1000m, on a slow track; 7 len behind Prince Of Love carrying 56kg at $11. Better than the last run and worth another chance.

Second run back. First-up after five months ran last of 10 at Sandown-Lakeside Mdn-Sw on June 3 over 1200m, on rain affected going; 13 len behind Miss Lola with 59.5kg at $3.30. Previously second-up ran last of 9 at Sandown-Lakeside Mdn-Sw on January 8 over 1400m, 7 len behind Missapprehend carrying 58kg at $5.50. Blinkers come off and in lesser grade and firmer footing is worth another chance.

Having third race start. At debut, ran second last of 9 at Kilmore 3yo Mdn-Sw on May 15 over 1212m, slow going 9 len behind Brroosha carrying 56kg at $21.
