Ballarat Race 8 - Bbq's Galore Ballarat Mares Pace
QUICK CRUNCH (5) progressed off a fresh placing to overcome a second line draw and win last start by 4.6 metres at Cranbourne. Goes very well at this longer distance with two wins and two placings from five attempts. Race fit third up so could strike again. IFYOULOVEMELETMEGO (6) had to work when racing wide so did well to box on for third last start, beaten 4.7 metres at Geelong. Recorded back-to-back wins earlier in the campaign so has been going well. Good enough to win a race of this calibre. DOT BALL (3) draws well and is heading the right way, improving last time out to finish a close third at Bendigo. ETIZ AMODEL (1) showed pleasing improvement last time out for third at Geelong and is well served by the ace draw.

Two back was beaten by 9 m finishing sixth after a quick start, behind Theroux at this track over 2200m on May 28 at $51. Then a handy effort when beaten by 8 m finishing third behind Bond Girl at Geelong over 1609m on June 5 at $13. Heading the right way and is a player from the inside barrier.

Two back was well beaten into sixth after being driven well back, behind Quick Crunch at Cranbourne over 2080m on June 14 at $34. Then a handy effort when a close third after being driven well back, behind Elleegant Lane at Bendigo over 2150m on June 17 at $17. Progressing well. Leading player from a good draw.

Resumes. At the latest first-up run was well back in the run when 3rd (Fr6) over 1690m at Kilmore, beaten 5.5 m by Shudaboughtaboat (2:06.10) in 4yo+ on February 26 at $15. Has been sharpened up at the trials but may still need the run.
