Ballarat (G) Race 7

Pink Diamond Princess Ht4

Prize Money: $3,875

LULU'S RIDE (8) is better than last start when fifth (24.58) in a Free For All at Bendigo over 425m. Worth another chance. CERULEAN POPPY (7) jumped from this same draw and led until late but run down, finishing a 0.7 lengths second (25.27) at this track over 450m in a Grade 5. Can measure up. LITTLE DARL (4) must be included in main hopes on latest effort.

Did a good job two starts back at Shepparton to win by 4.5 lengths in 21.91, beating Scott Charisma. Last start finished 6th on May 30 over 425m at Bendigo behind Come And See beaten 8 lengths (24.57) in a Grade 5. Looking to others this time.

Good effort to win last start by a nose over 450m at this track in a handy (26.00), beating Winning Ratio. Makes plenty of appeal on that latest effort.

Has shown little speed out of the boxes and tends to spot them a start in her races, Last start finished fourth over 525m at The Meadows, beaten 5.5 lengths. Hard to envisage a win.

Charged out of the boxes with a slick early split and went straight to the front, giving a huge sight but headed late when a 0.7 lengths second (25.27) over 450m at this track. Has the ability to be in the finish.
