Ballarat Race 14 - Ballarat Race 14 Veterans
BETTER BANJO (1) hit the ground running from the squeeze draw with a sensational early split last time, paving the way for a 6 length win at Warragul over 400m in 22.62. Has a strong record out of this box with six wins and five minor placings from 12 starts. Great chance again. LIGHTNING JEWEL (4) was a (23.30) winner last time out at Horsham from Box 2. The form out of her last race has been franked. Looks a key chance if runs up to latest figure. LASSARD (2) comes off a respectable 22.24 placing at Shepparton over 390m. Rates a leading chance if runs up to latest. FROG MARCH (7) has a solid strike rate at this track and distance.
