Doncaster Race 5

483Mtrs (A4)

Stake: $621

BALLYMAC ALEXIS (5) has a strong overall record having 15 wins and 32 places from 69 starts including a last start second (30.91) over 483m at Doncaster. Looks well placed here and should prove hard to beat again. ROSSA DORA (2) is having her first look at this circuit. Comes here a last start placegetter at Doncaster in an A4 (30.59). Some good form is emerging from her last run. Expecting another good run. POLLY SNOW (1) turned in a plain run last time when fifth at Doncaster over 450m behind Foyle Bandit (28.99) in a B5. Better than last start and can bounce back. IVY HILL RUBY (3) has claims fresh from a recent placing from this draw.

Lines up for the first time at this track. Failed to feature at Doncaster behind Foyle Bandit last start. Over 450m (28.99) in B5. Happy to risk this time.

Didn't fire two runs back then progressed nicely last time to be beaten just a neck into second over 483m at Doncaster. Put the writing on the wall last start so follow her up.
