Ballarat Race 7 - Southern Sheetmetal
PAW BRUTUS (6) was a last start winner (25.38) at this track in a Maiden and will jump from box 6 for the first time. Ran one of the fastest times on the program in his latest win. Will go close again if runs up to latest. TOMMY'S WHISKY (2) turned in a good run last time, finishing in the placings (25.77) at this track in a Grade 7. Lines up from box 2 for the first time. Nicely placed to grab a well-deserved win. DEEP THINKER (3) comes here off a placing in strong time (22.15) over 390m at Warrnambool. Has the ability and can measure up. ASTON SWING (7) is worth consideration after filling a hole as favourite last start.

Scored (25.38) last time out at this track in a Maiden and will break from box 6 for the first time. With a clean break looks hard to beat.

Racing well without winning, recording four minors on end, the latest hitting the ground running with a fast early sectional but finishing in the minors again when second (22.50) over 390m at this track. Capable of a good showing.

Needs to do more than recent efforts, the latest a eighth over 410m at Horsham. Not one of the leading chances on this occasion.
