Ballina

Today, December 25, 2024Flat5f

NEEDAWINNA (8) settled midfield and failed to improve when resuming over this course and distance last start. Better for that run and this is an easier maiden. Hard to beat with the help of an inside gate. BACK ON DE QUO (1) returns from a five-month spell. Showed pace and battled on well for fourth when resuming over this trip at Murwillumbah last prep. Finds a softer first-up target this time so he is right in contention. BARRON (2) lines up for the 25th time. Decent effort to fill a minor placing over 1262m here two runs back. Makes each-way appeal from the inside draw and McGuren to ride. HUMPHREE BEAR (4) showed a ton of pace but couldn't keep going on debut 12 days ago over this distance at Coffs Harbour. Should take a lot from that run and will be hard to catch. The Stephen Lee-trained debutante BOLD ZARA (10) placed in a recent trial here. Three of the four siblings to race are winners so she should have a bit of talent.

    At the latest run ran last of 7 at this track Ctry Mdn on December 10 over 1250m, on rain affected going; 11 len behind Jive Turkey with 55.5kg at $4.50.
