Ballarat Race 9 - Sportsbet Fast Form Damsels Dash (1-4 W)
LIDDELL (8) is a talented type progressing through the grades and building a strong record. Has quickly put herself into the picture to win the last couple of runs. Scored latest at Horsham in a handy 22.98. Winner at her latest appearance in the quickest time on the card. Well placed and will be tough to beat. ASTON SWING (1) turned in a better effort at this track last start, finishing second behind Aston Sunshine (22.28) in a Mix 6/7. Has the pace to be prominent. The form from her last run is stacking up nicely. Can measure up. REIKO COMET (2) has been settling off the speed lately, finishing fourth (22.46) last time in a Grade 5 at Warrnambool. Got the money at her only try from this box. Can measure up this time. PAW LASSIE (7) is last start winner who looks one of the chances.

Showed strong pace early but found one better when a head second over 390m this track in 22.28. In the money last time and looks well placed to go one better.

Goes well at this track and trip. At the last outing finished 4th on April 16 over 390m at Warrnambool behind Where's Nassif beaten 5.5 lengths (22.46) in a Grade 5. Solid chance with even luck.

Has been out of the money of late. Could only manage fifth last time out over 450m at Warrnambool. Not up to this.

Good performance to win by 0.8 lengths at Geelong over 460m (25.96) beating Twenty Knots in Rank Limit - Restricted Win on April 14. Should be around the mark.

On a hot streak of form, the latest charging out of the boxes early and scoring at Horsham (22.98), making it four straight wins. That last win was in the quickest time on the card. Stick with her.
