Ballarat Race 3 - Grv Distance Racing
ASTON TRUST (1) was in winning form two back (30.67) at this track but ran below best last time at Warrnambool, finishing 6th. Consistent performer from this draw with a win and five minor placings to his credit. Has ability and looks hard to stop. ASCEND ECSTATIC (2) missed the hat-trick last start when third and beaten 4.5 lengths (37.98) last time at Warrnambool. Although beaten ran one of the quickest times on the card last start. Must be included in calculations. URANA PARALLAX (6) held his own to the line last start and filled a minor placing, beaten only 1.3 lengths (34.96) behind Dr. Paris at Sandown. Ran one of the fastest times on the program last start despite finishing in the minors. Expected to be in the finish again. SHE REACTS (4) can find the frame without surprising.

Has shown little speed out of the boxes and tends to spot them a start in her races, Last start finished eighth over 595m at Sandown, beaten 16 lengths. Hard to envisage a win.

Has been in the money the last two runs. Finished third at Sandown in 34.96 last time but the start prior recorded an excellent 34.35 over 600m finishing third at The Meadows. Rates a chance if runs up to recent fast time.

Solid performance to win by 1.75 lengths at Shepparton over 650m (37.48) beating Paw Fortress in Special conditions race on May 4. Looks up against it this time.
