Ballarat Race 8 - Southern Sheetmetal

REV KEN (3) put in a much better performance last start when in the placings at Warrnambool behind Reiko Comet (26.03) in a Rank Limit - Grade 5. Has the pace to be prominent. Can find winning form. ELEVATE (5) was well back throughout but attacked the line to hit the frame when a 6 length third (26.33) at Geelong in Bottom Up - Grade 5. Although beaten ran one of the quickest times on the card last start. Expected to be in this for a long way. ALFIE TANGO (2) has a strong record this journey here with two wins and a minor from five starts. In the money last time at this track (25.88) in a Grade 5, finishing a 4 length third. Looks one of the chances. RAVEN XANDER (7) is worth including.
