Ballarat Race 1 - 14 Races Today

ARTICULATE (1) is struggling to break through but racing consistently, finishing in the minors three starts on end. Last time out flew the lids with a fast early sectional but gathered in and finished in the minors when second (22.55) at this track over 390m. One of the contenders. SIA RIOT (2) has been hard to follow lately, running seventh (22.98) last time but prior to that ran very well when placed at Warrnambool. Can hit the frame this time. SILVERSMITH (3) produced a moderate performance last time when fifth at Bendigo over 425m behind Aston Yamato (24.95) in a Maiden. Placed at his previous run. Expected to feature in the finish. TRIGGERFISH (6) found the frame here last start and looks a top-three hope again.

Latest effort finished 7th on February 13 over 390m at Warrnambool behind Aston Castle beaten 5 lengths (22.98) in a Maiden. Some good form is emerging from that last run. Expected to prove hard to beat.

Didn't finish two back and couldn't make the frame last time when he finished 4th on April 2 over 425m at Bendigo behind Bed Time Daisy beaten 5.5 lengths (24.98) in a Maiden. Can't recommend in this field.

Good effort at double-figure odds last time when third (24.96) over 425m at Bendigo. Will need a little luck early from the draw. Looking to others.

Has raced 11 times and is overdue for a win, the latest offering a third (25.80) over 450m at this track. Although beaten ran fast time last start. Should play a big role.
