Ballarat Race 7 - Alsop And Co Catering
GALENTO (7) was game in defeat off the inside draw last start, finishing third and beaten half a length (29.59) behind Trendy Art at Sandown. Can find winning form. SLICK IVAN (1) three runs back produced an exceptional 22.10 win over 390m at this track then has found the minor money in two runs since. Has the ability and looks a key chance. PAW GERTRUDE (8) placed last time (25.16) at this track in a Grade 4/5, finishing second and beaten 2.75 lengths. Has already won five times from this draw.

Flew the lids with a fast early split last time, hitting the frame with a 3.5 lengths second (23.88) over 425m at Bendigo and making it two placings on end. Excellent record from this box, including four wins. Go well.

Did a good job two starts back at Horsham to win by 4.5 lengths in 23.09, beating Righteous Fury. Last start finished 5th in a Grade 5 on April 17 over 400m at Geelong behind Eat Your Spinach beaten 9 lengths (23.26). Look for improvement. Not out of it.

Last start finished fourth over 515m at Sandown, beaten 4.5 lengths (29.78) behind Zipping Sigrid in a Grade 5 on April 16. Will find this a little easier. The form from the last run stacks up nicely. Worth following up.

Has hit the frame the last couple. Finished third at Geelong latest but prior to that recorded a handy 25.88 over 460m finishing second at Geelong. Harder here and looks a place chance only.

Impressive performance leading throughout to score by a half a length in a Grade 5 last start at The Meadows, recording a respectable 30.00 over the 525m journey. This tougher but prefer for a place this time.

Struggling to break through but racing consistently, finishing in the minors three on end. Last start rocketed out of the boxes with a scorching early sectional but gathered in and finished in the minors when third (29.59) at Sandown. More than capable and well placed to find his best form.

Charged out of the boxes with a slick early split and went straight to the front, giving a huge sight but headed late when a 2.75 lengths second (25.16) at this track. Recorded one of the quickest times on the card last time despite being beaten. Follow up.
