Ballarat Race 12 - Sportsbet Supporters Of Having A Crack
TRICKY DISCO (2) was out of the placings last time but recorded an impressive Grade 5 win (22.08) at this track three runs back. Better than last run and makes appeal this time. ELLIOT NOVA (3) ran below best last time finishing fourth (22.83) over 390m at this track from Box 4. Has ability and can measure up. IMPOSTER (6) finished well back at Geelong last time when a 12 length seventh (23.49) but recorded best time of the card when winning three back. Key runner who gets his chance to atone. PAW PASCAL (4) scored in dominant fashion last time. Must be respected.

Was sent out long odds last time but charged out of the boxes with a fast early sectional and gave a sight before being swallowed up late, finishing a 3.5 lengths fourth (24.47) over 425m at Bendigo. Others better.

Quickly out of the boxes with a slick early sectional clocking 22.83 with a 1.2 lengths win at Geelong over 400m. Can make it back to back wins.

Backs up after finishing 7th on January 20 over 400m at Geelong in a Grade 5. Doesn't look smart enough to threaten the top few.
