Ballarat Race 11 - Sportsbet Ht4
OUR PATCH (2) has mixed form recently, finishing fourth (22.28) in a Grade 4 at this track latest but did run well two back when in the frame. Meets a moderate line up and rates on top this time. PAW XABIA (5) showed little early speed at her last couple, the latest finishing sixth (23.21) in a Grade 4 at Warragul. Form at the trip sound including seven wins. One of the better chances. LEAP FANG LEAP (3) could manage only eighth at this track last time but impressed when posting a swift 24.03 over 425m at Bendigo the start prior. Expecting another bold showing. SQUEEGEE'S RIDE (1) can return to form after missing the top-three at this circuit last time out.
