Ballarat Race 5 - Southern Sheetmetal
BLACKPOOL SLADE (1) has some solid form under his belt and proved too classy last time to win by one length at this track in a handy 22.09 beating Big Trucker. The form out of the last run is proven to be strong. Shapes as a top winning chance on latest effort. SPICY ASSASSIN (2) turned in a better effort at Warragul last start, finishing third behind Simply Stylish (22.78) in a Special conditions H. Led around the bend before fighting on well and should give a sight. Has performed well from this box with a win and two minor placings to his name from five starts. Must be included in calculations. LITTLE GLADYS (8) has missed the placings at her last couple but was in the money three back when third (23.19) at Geelong in a Grade 5. Rates a winning chance on best. ASTON WASHINGTON (5) profiles nicely here at this trip.

Rocketed out of the boxes with a scorching early sectional but swamped late when a close up fourth (22.50) at this track over 390m. Has the ability to be in the finish.
