Ballarat Race 12 - Sportsbet Supporters Of Having A Crack
MAURITIAN LUCAS (4) has a moderate overall strike-rate. Hit the board with a minor placing last time when third (22.63) at this track. Form here at the trip sound including four wins. Makes plenty of appeal. PAW CASSIAN (8) has a moderate overall strike-rate. Better run when finding the frame last time though, finishing third (31.86) at this track. The form out of the last run is proven to be strong. Leading player again. SLINGER (2) was safely held last time out, finishing sixth at this track over 390m behind Rebel Thinker (23.31) in a Grade 5. In the mix. TELL ME LIES (7) is new to this circuit but should be in the mix.

At the last start finished 6th in a Grade 5 on September 26 over 390m at this track behind Rebel Thinker beaten 10 lengths (23.31). Didn't have the best of it last start and can bounce back.

Has been out of the money of late. Could only manage fifth last time out over 390m at Warrnambool. Needs to find a bit more to test these.

Improved sharply when third behind Miss Sparkles at this track last start over 545m (31.86). Gets back so might need a bit of luck.
