Ballarat Synthetic Race 4 - Manhari (Bm62)

SALUDAR (8) looks hard to beat again. He had his first run on synthetic here last start and proved far too good winning his maiden, ridden on speed and coming away to core by 3.5 lengths. He'll roll forward again and should go on with it. LIFE SENTENCE (3) is racing consistently, putting in a strong effort here over 1500m last time out, beaten half a length into second. Back a notch in grade and should take beating. MR BUTT'S BOATS (5) ran a good race at Swan Hill in similar company last time out and should roll forward with each way claims. IMPENDING WAR (4) ran third here last time out in a better showing, respecting from an ideal draw. VAGABOND HERO (1) can run well fresh.
