Ballarat Race 8 - Grv Distance Racing

IF ONLY (1) showed little early speed at her last couple, the latest finishing fifth (35.41) in a Grade 5 at The Meadows. Should bounce back. WESTERLY BALE (2) turned in a plain effort last time when seventh at The Meadows over 730m behind PAW LOUIS (43.75) in a Grade 5. Has ability and can atone. DOUBLE DENIM (3) turned spotting a big start finishing fourth (43.42) last time in a Grade 5 at The Meadows. Has never been out of the money in six starts this distance. Likely to be about the money. PAYBACK (4) is likely to have admirers.
