Ballarat Synthetic Race 2 - Global Turf Mdn Plate
VEGAS MISSILE (9) was thereabouts last time out when second at Pakenham Synthetic over 1200m, beaten a long neck having also just found one better on debut there. Drawn ideally and can improve again, takes catching. FINE SIERRA (12) resumes from a spell of five months. She showed good ability last time in, placing on debut at Pakenham in a good maiden (Tag The Bridge goes around in R1 and was 2nd there). Tough draw but should run well. BOHEMIAN STAR (2) stepped out on his debut over 1200m at this track two weeks ago and finished fifth, beaten 1.4 lengths. Should come on from that and take holding out. COMMANDEUR (5) presents third up and ready to peak, he maps for a lovely run and should take beating.

Gelding by Swear making his first appearance. Fitter for a jump-out on July 3 at Ballarat Synthetic when finished fifth. Unlikely to find enough improvement to trouble these.

Most recently raced behind the speed prior to fading 10th of 14 at Donald Mdn-Sw on June 20 over 1350m, on heavy track; 7 len behind Flying Khan with 59.5kg at $9. The race before that eased back early on 7th of 12 at Kilmore Mdn-Sw on June 1 over 1107m, slow going 3.5 len behind Signed By A Kiss with 59.5kg at $18. Prefer to see him back in form.
