Lord Vladivostok due for change of luck in Ballarat Cup

Lord Vladivostok is due for a change of luck in Ballarat Cup. The horse has won six of his 23 starts but was all but written off after he sustained a serious injury on Melbourne Cup Day last year. Harry Coffey will ride Lord VladovostOK in the Ballatar Cup (2000m) on Saturday. Lord Vadovstok has drawn barrier 11 for Saturday's Ballatar Cup, which is a good barrier for horses. TAB has posted Lord vadvostock as an $11 chance in early betting on the feature.
