Ballarat Race 8 - Alsop And Co Catering

AUNTIE AMBER (8) turned spotting a big start finishing fourth (25.89) last time in a Bottom Up - Grade 5 at Shepparton. Has ability and is a key runner. BUN UNDERCURRENT (3) was below best at her last couple, the latest finishing fourth at this track, but was among the placings at Warrnambool three back. Can hit the frame this time. ASTON TRANSCEND (1) has been settling off the speed lately, finishing fifth (26.62) last time in a Grade 5 at this track. Solid record here at the distance winning three races. Comes through a solid form race last start. Will give the top chances plenty to think about. GOOD ODDS MARIO (2) is always hard to beat when drawn in this box.
