Ballarat Race 12 - Eureka Concrete Damsels Dash

NIKITA BALE (1) clocked a sharp 22.45 when filling a minor placing over 400m at Geelong last start. Expected to go close again if runs up to latest time. NOCTILUCENT (8) boasts a strong record this journey with two wins and two minors from five tries. In the money last time at this track (25.56) in a Grade 5, finishing a long neck second. Makes strong appeal on best. BLACK SAINT (2) is progressing well scoring last time out (22.05) at Shepparton and bringing up her 6th career win. Has a good record at this journey. Makes plenty of appeal on the back of that last-start win. RUN FOR SHELTER (7) is worth including.

Was among the placegetters latest at Geelong when a 0.8 lengths second but did clock a convincing 22.45 over the 400m journey. Looms as the one to beat this time.
