Ballarat Race 5 - Southern Sheetmetal
TALCOTT BALE (7) has a strong record this trip with eight wins and seven placings from 20 starts. In the money last time at this track (22.78) in a Mix 3/4, finishing a 3.5 lengths second. Looks well placed here and among the chances. MAN OF COURAGE (4) comes off a quick 22.15 placing at this track over 390m. Harder here but expected to feature again. WHAT HOPE (1) best form can see her take this out.
Stats
Comments
Ordinary effort last start when she got back too far over 300m at Healesville. Prior to that won by 3 lengths at Warrnambool (22.07) beating Spring Port in a Mix 3/4 on July 11. Forgive the latest run. Has solid claims on her best form.

Backs up after winning by 0.8 lengths at Warrnambool (22.32) beating Westar Commander in a Grade 4/5 on September 26 six days ago. This is much harder assignment and she needs to find another gear.

Hit the frame again last time when third (22.15) at this track, making it three minor placings in a row. Tricky draw to overcome. Cannot be ruled out.

Finished seventh last start at Shepparton but prior to that had been racing consistently. Has a wide draw to navigate and will need to find best.

Showed strong pace early but found one better when a 3.5 lengths second over 390m this track in 22.78. Boxed on well to finish runner-up last time. Leading player.

Hit the frame at Geelong last time when a 3.5 lengths third but did record a swift 22.67 over the 400m journey. Can sneak a place again.
