Ballarat Race 9 - Rsn Grey Areas - Wednesday & Friday

ACQUISITION (8) finished in the placings last time but could not have been more impressive before that in his strong 25.34 win at Shepparton over 450m. Hot win two back and looks the one to beat here. DAD'S TARPIA (1) charged out of the boxes with a fast early split and led throughout to score when a long neck winner (25.52) over 450m at this track. Shapes as a top winning chance on latest effort. REIKO DAIQUIRI (4) stalked the lead from the inside draw before finishing second last start (25.47) at this track in Mix 6/7 over 450m. Leading chance. VERY SNEAKY (2) should be thereabouts.

Racing well without winning, recording three minors on end, the latest hitting the ground running with a fast early sectional but finishing in the minors again when second (25.47) over 450m at this track. Capable of a strong show.

Solid performance after tracking the speed to win by 1.75 lengths at Warrnambool over 390m (22.81) beating Super Sealant in Maiden on December 28. Would be better placed in something easier.

Flew the lids with a sensational early split but had to be content with second when clocking 25.36 over 450m at Shepparton. The last run is a strong form reference. Follow up.
