Ballarat Race 13 - Ballarat Race 13

ZESTY BOY (8) is looking to continue his winning ways off a solid 22.20 victory in a Grade 5 at Shepparton. Smart win latest and looks a key chance again here. TINKER DAN (4) was game in defeat at the latest run, finishing third and beaten 1.75 lengths (22.48) behind Press Start at Shepparton. Leading player again. PLATYPUS YAALA (1) scored last time out by 1.5 lengths at Geelong over 400m (23.15). Has failed to finish in the placings from two starts here. Leading chance again. NITRO BALE (7) scored last time and appeals as a top-three prospect.

Didn't finish two back and couldn't make the frame last time when she finished 6th in a Grade 5 on January 3 over 400m at Geelong behind Fast Love beaten 9 lengths (23.28). Leading chance on best form.

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 fifth (23.37) over 400m at Geelong. Can't recommend against this lot.
