Ballarat Race 4 - Tudor Electrical

PAW QUARK (4) has a strong record this track and trip with three wins and two placings from seven starts. Comes off a (21.96) win last time, scoring by 1.3 lengths in a Grade 4/5 over 390m at Shepparton. Appeals as a leading chance in this. ARCANA (8) is a capable type and proved too strong last time to win by 0.7 lengths at this track in a handy 22.03 beating Laid Back Lass. Strong form has emerged from his last run. Has definite claims. PAW ESTRELLA (1) was out of the placings last time when fifth at Bendigo (24.57) but scored five back at Warragul (22.51). Form here at the trip sound including two wins. Better than the latest run and deserves another chance. ANCHOR CRANKER (7) is another with top-three prospects.

Safely held last time over 450m at this track but was a 5 length winner two back over 400m at Geelong. Doesn't look smart enough to threaten the top few.

Was prominent from the outset and held on well to win at Shepparton over 390m in 21.96 last start, beating Hunterview Lad. Looks to have an edge on most of these.

Won two starts back after racing on the pace at Healesville over 350m in 19.15. Couldn't repeat the feat last time out when seventh over 300m at Healesville at Free For All level. Likely to find this too tough.

At the last start finished 6th over 410m at Horsham beaten 10 lengths (24.00) behind Paw Clarissa in a Grade 4/5 on January 4. Can make amends. Worth including.

Sent out long odds last time but charged out of the boxes with a strong early sectional and went on to clock 22.03 in a 0.7 lengths win at this track over 390m. Form strong and a huge chance to register the hat-trick.
