Ballarat Race 9 - Sportsbet Ballarat Cup Ht6

WRECK JAMES (3) made light work of a wide draw last time with a strong early sectional and clocking 24.97 in a 4 length win at this track over 450m. Winner at his latest appearance in one of the quickest times on the card. The one to beat again. BAROOGA JIM (7) goes very well this trip starting 14 times for six wins and five minors. Comes off a (25.48) win last time, scoring by 7 lengths in a Grade 5 over 460m at Geelong. Can hit the frame with the right run. MOTION SENSOR (8) struggled for best form latest, finishing 5th (22.07) in a Grade 5 FIN at this track. Has a strong winning record here at this journey including two wins. Worth following up. PAW VORTEX (6) is worth a look over a shorter distance this time.
