Already 46 scratching from the Ballarat meeting on the synthetic, only 6 of them emergencies who didn't get a run.  Surely a reason to have more emergencies given fields are restricted to 12 starters with a number of races having rather less than the maximum.

I think the large number of scratchings is because it was changed from turf track to synthetic yesterday (acceptances were Thursday)

I could hardly believe my eyes on seeing 'synthetic' when we've had less than an inch since June 11 (4mls) & that's within 100mts of the back straight Angry
Trainers accepted knowing full well the likeliehood of a heavy surface which most would be hoping for considering we are in the middle of winter!
Fwiw, I'd rate my paddocks as a Heavy 8, not that it helps any of those who've scratched due to the surface transfer Unhappy

Rice Queen is promising.  May need another run over further but will be watching with interest.

Thought he was older than Rising 7
Feels like he’s been around longer.
