TAHNEE BABY (13) returns from the paddock after showing good early speed on debut but couldn't maintain it missing the frame at Ballarat Synthetic. Rates as a strong chance. DOWN THE WICKET (2) is a two-start maiden who returned last time and finished sixth at Colac over 5f, beaten 4 lengths. Plenty of scope for improvement and is a great chance to break through. MCCOY (4) is a three-start maiden who resumed from a lay-off last start and was beaten 2 lengths when fourth over 5½f at Ararat. Backmarker who gets home hard. One to consider. NOVA LIGHTS (11) resumes after running fourth by 3 lengths as the favourite on debut in a small field at Ballarat. Rates a place chance.
