Ballarat Race 12 - Two More Races To Go
AUNTY CHERYL (8) produced a moderate effort last time when sixth at this track over 390m behind Aston Pluto (23.45) in a Grade 5. Tough to beat if on-song. RABADA (7) has shown good improvement at his last two starts, hitting the frame latest when 3rd at Bendigo over 425m. Consistent performer from this draw with a win and seven minor placings to his credit. Must be included in calculations. HOLYFIELD CHIC (1) found some support last start but struggled into seventh (23.03), beaten 10 lengths. Was in the money the start prior. Yet to win out of this box but has been in the placings three times from four starts. Can measure up this time. ZOOM BOOM (2) will give backers a sight.

Was out of the placings last time but the start prior finished in the minors when third (22.60) at big odds over 390m at this track. Tends to go fairly well off the draw and can measure up.

Was out of placings last time (22.82) at this track in a Grade 5, finishing seventh and beaten 7 lengths. Has four minors from seven starts from box 3. Will need some luck to feature.

Has been out of the money of late. Could only manage fourth last time out over 425m at Bendigo. Happy to risk in this.

Hit the frame latest (24.75) when third at Bendigo in a Grade 5. Goes very well from the draw boasting one victory and seven places from 16 starts. Looks suited here and rates a leading chance.
