Ballarat Race 4 - Sportsbet Final (1-4 Wins)
PAW STELLA (7) jumped from the pinch last start to lead all the way and score (25.02) at this track in Restricted WIN H over 450m. Ran the fastest time on the program in her latest win. Looks a key chance if runs up to latest figure. DEEP THINKER (1) was quickly into stride and burnt early from out wide where he gave a sight, finishing second (25.27) and beaten 4 lengths over 450m at this track. Didn't win last time but still ran one of the quickest times on the card. Can measure up. HOLMES (2) looks close to another win after hitting the frame in a 7 length third (25.52) in a Restricted WIN H at this track. Ran one of the fastest times on the program last start despite finishing in the minors. Bold showing expected. REPELLENT (4) scored by one length last time (25.52) in a Restricted WIN H over 450m at this track. Has already won out of this draw.

Hit the frame at this track last time when a 4 length second but did record a slick 25.27 over the 450m trip. Expected to push the clock again here.

Form has been good with a placing two starts ago and a win three runs back. Last time out finished 3rd on May 20 over 450m at this track behind Paw Stella beaten 7 lengths (25.52) in a Restricted WIN H. Capable of a good showing.

Did a good job on debut at this track to win by 2.75 lengths in 22.37, beating Paw Yuri. Last start finished 4th on May 20 over 450m at this track behind Repellent beaten 7 lengths (26.05) in a Restricted WIN H. Not keen, needs to lift.

Was prominent from the outset and held on well to win at this track over 450m in 25.02 last start, beating Deep Thinker. Can make it two on the bounce.

Didn't make the placings last time at The Meadows (30.43) in a Grade 6, finishing a 4.5 lengths sixth. Yet to score but has placed each of two runs from this draw. Tough line-up and may struggle.
