CHANCES AT BALLARAT ON THURSDAY

Three runners at Ballarat on Thursday for Ballymore Stables including the debutant, Prince Of Arran.

Prince Of Arran is in race one, the 3YO Maiden Plate over 1400m and Mike Moroney has been patient with the son of Nadeem.

“He’s been a work in progress, physically he’s impressive but he’s just taken a little while to accept things mentally,” Moroney said.

“He’s had a couple of jumpouts and the last one was in blinkers and he coped with that nicely so we’ve left the blinkers on for race day.

“He’s the sort of horse that whatever he does this campaign is a bonus as I do think he will get better and better.

“He has shown us nice ability at home, it’s just a matter of getting him to focus.”

Hurry (pictured) runs in race four, the Fillies & Mares Benchmark70 Handicap over 1200m and her task has been made easier by two scratchings, leaving five rivals.

“She’s trained on very well from her good first-up run and if she produces her best form then she should be a winning chance,” Moroney said.

“She’s improved from the first run - the small field might make things interesting but if she delivers what she has shown us at home then I’d like to think she can be winning.”

Trendsetter runs in the eighth race, the Benchmark70 Handicap over 2000m, where he has drawn ideally in barrier three.

“He’s had the three runs back this time in and he’s got a few things in his favour for the first time,” Moroney said.

“He’s up to his right distance, he’s drawn well and the soft track is in his favour as well.

“His fitness levels are there now and he looks terrific so I’m expecting him to run a good race.”
