Ballarat Race 3 Tip #11 Festivus $2.40

This two-year-old colt from the Tony and Calvin McEvoy stable ran nicely on debut, finishing 3.2 lengths fourth.

The runner up in that hit-out was Mr Brightside, who won his maiden on Sunday by 5 lengths.

That looks a good lead here, given you can expect this youngster will take natural improvement from that run.

John Allen takes over the ride on this occasion and he is the best at educating these juveniles.

Look for Allen to position him in the first four or five and give him a cosy run.

He will pull the trigger at the right time to get this son of Teofilo a win on the board early in the piece.

 

Ballarat Race 9 Tip #8 Naval Envoy $10.00

This guy showed them a clean pair of heels two starts back in this BM64 grade at a Sandown midweek event, leading all the way and running them ragged.

At his next start in a BM70, he sat outside the leader and stuck on very well to finish second before going out for a spell.

He does draw out wide here first-up, so Zac Spain will need to make an early call to go forward as soon as they jump, to find a spot amongst the leaders.

If he gets an easy enough run, he could certainly get the money at the nice juicy odds.
