Ballarat Race 8 - Greyhound Clubs Victoria

SODA BEN (2) is progressing well with another good run last time, placing (26.08) from Box 7 at Shepparton. Good form should continue. ASTON TRANSCEND (1) was below best last time but prior to that was narrowly beaten when eighth (25.93) in a Grade 5 at this track. This looks easier and expected to improve sharply. SUDOKU CARMELLO (6) has been beaten for early speed lately, last time finishing eighth (27.14) in a Grade 5 at Warragul. One of the main contenders. MANDOLIN STORM (8) has strong credentials from this draw.

Was out of placings last time (26.71) at this track in a Rank Limit - Grade 5, finishing eighth and beaten 13 lengths. Goes very well from the draw boasting one victory and three places from six starts. With a clean break looks hard to beat.

Missed the frame last time but prior to that was in the money twice in a row including a narrow loss two back when second (26.48) over 460m at Warragul. Has to overcome a wide draw and needs to find best form to feature.

Goes well at this track and trip. At the last start finished 4th on April 7 over 400m at Geelong behind Comeback Charlie beaten 1.5 lengths (23.13) in a Grade 4/5. Has claims if at her best.
