Ballarat Race 14 - Ballarat Race 14
SPRING BRUMBY (2) is a talented type and proved too strong last time to win by a neck at Geelong in a handy 22.87 beating Silent Whisper. Looks a key chance if runs up to latest figure. TICK RETURNS (4) doesn't win out of turn but recent form sound. Has hit the frame at her last five runs, the latest finishing third (22.23) at Warrnambool. Solid record at the distance winning seven races. Nicely placed to grab a well-deserved win. DINOSAUR (1) showed little early speed at his last couple, the latest finishing fifth (23.15) in a Grade 5 at Geelong. Form at the trip sound including two wins. One of the better hopes. ABRACADABRA (8) has won at this course and distance so worth including.

Was prominent from the outset and held on well to win at Geelong over 400m in 22.87 last start, beating Silent Whisper. Was strong in the market and scored a soft win most recently. Stay with him.

Racing well without winning, recording five minors on end, the latest hitting the ground running with a fast early sectional but finishing in the minors again when third (22.23) over 390m at Warrnambool. More than capable and well placed to find her best form.
