Ballina

Today, Flat7f

GIOIA RIVER (6) was six weeks between runs so his tiring effort over 1410m at Grafton last start for new trainer John Shelton can be forgiven. Form prior to that was impressive in the Riverina, including an eye-catching second two back over this trip at Wagga. Can improve out of sight. TRUE FAIRY (1) races back in the field so it makes the job tough for her. Again gave away a start last time out over the mile at Coffs Harbour before working home well. A lack of tempo here might be an issue but she is too honest to leave out of calculations. EASTOWIN (10) is a very hard one to catch. Scored narrowly over 1550m at Murwillumbah three back before a couple of failures. In the mix if in the mood. RISK FOR REWARD (3) has found the line well but just missed the placings in shorter races at his last couple. Best form comes at Ballina so he can feature without surprising. VIADELAMORE (2) hasn't been too far off them of late and a top four finish is on the cards.

    Last start 3rd of 14 at Grafton Bm58 on September 30 over 1400m, 2.25 len behind Nails And Pride carrying 55kg at $101. The race before that eased back early on 5th of 10 at Grafton Cl1 on August 30 over 1205m, 1.75 len behind Dizzy Dee carrying 55.5kg at $26. Caught the eye last time in a run that suggest this trip will suit.
