Ballarat Race 7 - Ballarat Function Centre (275+Rank)

LIGHTHEARTEDNESS (6) Displayed potential when winning last time at Bendigo and displaying improvement over the past few runs. Will be trying to topple them late. Must be considered. SON OF WITCHY (7) Finished 4th last start at Healesville. Likely to bounce back and facing a rise in trip. Displays good finishing speed. Worth consideration. PERFECT TONIGHT (2) Came in 4th last time at the track. Capable of bouncing back. Should be swooping on the field late. One of the major players. BUN QUAKE (4) Amongst the placegetters when 3rd last time at The Meadows. Strong each way hope.
