Ballarat Race 9 - Ballarat Function Centre

PAW BRUTUS (8) missed the frame last time when fourth (29.78) at Sandown but prior to that had four placings in a row. Has winning claims on his best figures. ASTON ACE (3) is worth forgiving last start after finishing fourth (30.77) in a Mix 6/7 H at The Meadows over 525m. Warrants plenty of respect. MIDNIGHT JED (6) had a low draw last time over 525m at The Meadows but was in traffic and fell. Key player if finds best. ASTON BARRISTER (1) has a solid strike rate at this distance.

Got back last start and could only manage fourth but before that won by half a length at Geelong (26.34) beating Paw Norbert in a Rank Limit - Restricted Win on March 24. Should be around the mark.
