Ballina Race 2 - Worrells Mdn Plate
Maidens don't come much plainer than this. FARNESINA (2) is back from a 19-week spell for the Munce stable. Ran a couple of respectable races in town in the maiden campaign although never threatened. Two recent trials should have her ready to run a forward race. WE DO REMEMBER (9) settled midfield and couldn't improve when resuming over 1120m at Lismore last time out. Strips fitter and a bit of extra ground should help. POWERFUL DOLPHINS (3) is in the mix on an eight-day back-up. Form nothing to get excited about but the likelihood of a soft lead puts her right in the picture. Market watch on Peter Robl's first starter SKELETON CREW (8) whose trial form has been just fair. The other runners are difficult to recommend.

Filly by Farnan making her first appearance. Finished fifth in a Beaudesert trial over 1050m on February 12. Market will be the best pointer.

Second run back. First-up after five months 6th of 10 at Lismore Mdn-Sw on February 10 over 1120m, slow going 2.75 len behind Nine Mill with 56.5kg at $101. Previously second-up 7th of 9 at Lismore F&M Mdn-Sw on September 11 over 1120m, 4.5 len behind Sands Of Omaha carrying 55.5kg at $21. Fitter for that run and expected to be in the finish this time.
