Ballarat Race 2 - A1 Signage (1-2 Wins) (250+Rank)

THERMAL OVERLOAD (4) used the rails draw to advantage to get home last time at Warrnambool and distance (22.36), scoring by 1.5 lengths. Rates on top again. LASERHAWK (8) charged out of the boxes with a fast early split and led throughout to score when a 2.25 lengths winner (25.75) over 450m at Warrnambool. The form out of the last run is proven to be strong. Has definite claims. READY TO FLIP (7) has been in super consistent form recently with two minors on end before missing the frame latest finishing fifth (22.75) at Warrnambool. Expected to feature in the finish. AUNTY CHERYL (5) warrants respect with the drop in trip.

Was big odds last time but gave a huge sight after a fast early split, weakening late to finish a 2.5 lengths fourth (24.70) over 425m at Bendigo. Shouldn't trouble the top few hopes.

Solid performance after tracking the speed to win by 1.5 lengths at Warrnambool over 390m (22.36) beating Trissa Bale in Bottom Up - Maiden on February 16. Had been in fine form, hitting the frame two times on end, before a deserved win last time. Can measure up again.
