Ballarat Race 8 - Alsop And Co Catering
BUN QUAKE (2) has some solid form under his belt and proved too strong last time to win by 1.3 lengths at The Meadows in a handy 30.64 beating Ripping It Up. Can continue the winning form. LUNA'S GIRL (5) comes off an average run last start when sixth at The Meadows over 525m behind BUN QUAKE (31.15) in a Grade 5. One of the better chances. KUNAMA NAMADGI (4) won by a space two back then gave a start but got home into the frame when third at Bendigo (28.74) last time. The form out of the last run is proven to be strong. Bold showing expected. PAW MANNY (7) placed last time out so worth considering.

Has not shown much in recent runs. Could only manage seventh last time out over 500m at Bendigo. Shouldn't trouble the top few hopes.

Won two starts back after racing on the pace at Sandown over 595m in 34.86. Followed that up with a minor placing over 500m at Bendigo at Grade 5 six days ago. Capable of a good showing.

Last couple of starts have been ordinary but she does have a good record at the track and trip, including three wins. Leading contender.

Needs to do more than recent efforts, the latest a seventh over 660m at this track. Looking to others this time.
