Ballarat Synthetic Race 2 - Global Turf Mdn Plate
Interesting race. CATONAHOTINROOF (2) resumes from a long spell and is now with Grahame Begg, formerly with Peter Snowden. She's a very well bred mare who has shown ability to win this and has won a trial leading in, respecting top yard. SUMALUV (5) ran a good race first up at Bendigo as a $21 hope, running on well for second. Fitter for that and should take holding out. GUN CITY (7) is a three-year-old gelding by Armory out of Cape City Flyer on debut for the Tony & Calvin Mcevoy stable. Tough draw but wary of yard. OCEAN SURGE (9) is an Ocean Park gelding on debut for the Busuttin & Young stable who can run well first time out. KUNG FU PANDA (11) ran well fresh at Pakenham Synthetic and should take catching.

Three-year-old gelding making debut by Armory out of Cape City Flyer. Fitter for a jump-out on August 3 at Flemington when finished fifth. Drawn wide which doesn't help. Should be ready to go.
