Ballarat Race 12 - Two More Races To Go

BOW EDITION (8) is a handy dog who jumped from box 8 last time out and scored by 3.5 lengths at Shepparton (22.48). The one to beat again. JUICE (7) started big odds last time but hit the ground running with a slick early split, giving a sight but fading out of it to finish fifth (22.74) at this track over 390m. Form from her last run is proving to be solid. Has the ability to give this a shake. OLIVIA EXPRESS (1) was safely held last time out, finishing eighth at Healesville over 300m behind No Manners (17.75) in a Grade 5. Goes well out of this box with a win and three minor placings. Better than the latest run and deserves another chance. HOTSPOT HERO (2) is worth consideration.

Hit the ground running with a slick early sectional but ran over late and missed the frame when a 2.5 lengths fifth (22.74) over 390m at this track. Should be right in the finish.
