Ballarat Race 11 - Onthestraight.com.au
FEAR THE BEER (4) is a promising type who notched his 13th career success when too good (22.36) at Geelong last time. Strike rate this distance strong having won 10 of 19 tries. Winner at his latest appearance in one of the quickest times on the card. Can make it back-to-back wins. PATRIOT CILLA (1) looks close to another win after finishing second from Box 6 last time (22.24) at this track. Has a strong record from box 1, including two wins. Must be included in calculations. DOONGALLA ROCKET (2) was strongly fancied last time but finished second (22.24), beaten a nose. Overdue and gets his chance. PAW QUIVER (3) put a gap on his rivals last start. Hard to beat again.

Was edged out last time at this track when beaten just a nose but did clock a respectable 22.24 over the 390m journey. Has the ability and looks a key chance again.
