Ballina Race 1 - Nbn News Country Boosted Mdn Plate
SOL FILIA (5) kept coming only to just miss last start over 1190m at Grafton. Will derive great benefit from recent racing. Peaking now and doubt she gets an easier maiden to get off the mark. RIGHTEOUS BROTHER (2) only warmed late at Grafton but worked home nicely in the end to finish midfield. Near his top now fourth-up and gets the chance to take closer order from the kind draw. Looks the main danger. MULLED (1) is a six-year-old gelding on debut from the stable of Stephen Lee. By Furnaces from Vougeot. They've taken their time getting him to the races and he strips fitter for a recent trial placing. Can pop up. WASHIK (7) and PORT KEMBLA (8) haven't inspired much confidence in their runs to date but now come into the mix as place chances in a thin contest.
