Ballarat Race 4 - Ballarat Function Centre

WALTER WALRUS (3) was game in defeat at the latest run, finishing second and beaten 2 lengths (16.99) behind Dinosaur Deano at Healesville. Still to record a win from this draw but has never missed the frame in two starts. Rates highly and will give a great sight. MENTION (2) hit the ground running from an outside draw with a fast early split, paving the way for a 3 length win at Healesville over 300m in 16.99. The form out of her last race has been franked. Looks a key chance if runs up to latest figure. LOVE A BOURBSKI (1) filled a minor placing last start at Healesville behind Canya Untamed (19.84) in a Grade 5. Has a strong record out of this box with two wins and a minor placing from five starts. Bold showing expected. WESTERN BALE (6) can run a bold race on best form.

Sent out long odds last time but rocketed out of the boxes with a fast early sectional and gave a sight before being swallowed up late, finishing a 6 length third (19.84) over 350m at Healesville. Coming out of a very strong form race. Expected to go well.

Strong performance to win by 3 lengths at Healesville over 300m (16.99) beating Hammer in T3 RSTW on January 10. Makes plenty of appeal on the back of the latest win.
