Ballarat Race 12

Two More Races To Go Damsels Dash

Prize Money: $2,925

RIVIA UMIKO (5) hit the ground running off the tricky draw and gave a sight in front, boxing on well for a minor when second (22.69) at Geelong in a Grade 5 over 400m. Although beaten ran one of the quickest times on the card last start. Well-placed to take this out. ZIVA BALE (1) box seated before sticking on well to finish one length away in third (22.48) at this track in a Grade 5 over 390m. Form from her last run is proving strong. Overdue and gets her chance. ASTON BREEZE (7) has been mixing form lately, hitting the frame two back before finishing eighth (24.75) at Bendigo in a Grade 5. Expected to do much better this time. PAW KATTIA (6) is worth consideration.

Comments

Flew the lids with a fast early split last time, hitting the frame with a one length third (22.48) over 390m at this track and making it two placings on end. Thereabouts of late and rates highly this line-up. Expected to be in the finish.

At the last outing finished last over 390m at Warrnambool beaten 10 lengths (23.07) behind Special Teams in a Grade 5 on July 17. Forgive the latest run. Has solid claims on her best form.

Hit the ground running last time with a strong early split and tried to lead throughout but had to settle for the minors when second (22.69) at Geelong over 400m. Although beaten ran one of the quickest times on the card last time. Follow up.

Missed the frame last time but finished in the minors at big odds two back when third (22.99) over 400m at Warragul. Drawn out wide but capable of a better result.

Was out of placings last time (24.75) at Bendigo in a Grade 5, finishing eighth and beaten 10 lengths. Fairly consistent record from the draw including a win and three minors. Looks a leading chance.

Good effort to win last start by 1.3 lengths over 390m at Shepparton in a handy (22.45), beating Borough Cook. Will find this a bit tougher, looking to others this time.

Expected Early Speed:Front Runner
