Ballarat Race 4 - Ride For Lucy
IMPRESARIO (2) drew a squeeze box and was game in defeat when a close third, half a length from the winner WILD REPUTATION (17.20) at Healesville. Has a strong record out of this box with four wins and two minor placings from 10 starts. Top chance in this line up. ASTON WARRIOR (3) boasts a strong record this journey here with three wins and three minors from nine tries. Hit the frame latest (22.59) when third at this track in a Grade 5. Looks well placed here and among the chances. HOLLYWOOD FRANKY (8) hit the frame two on end before being rewarded with a deserved win last time, scoring at Shepparton over 390m (22.46). Deserves serious consideration again. MAGPIE HARRY (1) cannot be left out despite racing here for the first time.

Drawn inside box. Latest effort finished 7th on December 27 over 400m at Geelong behind Paw Tika beaten 13 lengths (23.51) in a Grade 4/5. The form out of the last run measures up. Among the chances.

Did a good job two starts back at Healesville to win by a head in 17.18, beating Swooping Swan. Last start finished 6th on December 30 over 390m at this track behind Lektra Fred beaten 6 lengths (22.75) in a Grade 5. Other runners look much more appealing.
