Ballina (NSW) – Heavy 10

R1

Sword Of Legacy looks extremely hard to beat dropping back from stronger company after a dominant first-up run, and with natural improvement he should control this race.

The debutant Funky Cold Medina is one to watch in betting for minor money.

7. Shark Park ($4.20)

Amazigh Torque has been ultra consistent and in a race lacking tempo should get the perfect run to break through.
