Ballarat Race 5 - A1 Signage (1-2 Wins)

DARRA SAPPHIRE (7) is a last start placegetter when a 14 length third at The Meadows over 525m (31.48). Missed the placings only try here. Some good form is emerging from her last run. Good form should continue. PAW CASSIAN (3) has been beaten for early speed lately, last time finishing fourth (24.50) in a Grade 6 at Bendigo. Solid record here winning two races. Should be about the mark. NUTLEY BOY (2) doesn't have the best strike-rate. Finished in the minors latest when second (25.98) at Shepparton and may be close to breaking through. Expected to feature. LIBRA COURT (1) cannot be underestimated.

In great form with wins at her last two. Scored most recently over 390m at this track in T3 Grade 7 class two weeks ago. Likely to find this too tough.

Good effort to win last start by 0.7 lengths over 510m at Sale in a handy (29.54), beating Newhaven Sequoia. Will find this a bit tougher, be tough to make an impression against this lot.
