Ballarat Race 7

Eureka Concrete

Prize Money: $3,340

INDY MELMEN (2) ran below his best last time finishing fourth (30.99) over 525m at The Meadows in a Grade 5. Looks the one to beat on his best form. MAXIMUM REED (8) was below best last time when fourth but prior to that was a Grade 5 NP winner in quick time at The Meadows. Has the ability and expected to do much better. LADY BREANNA (6) was in traffic last time here and fell. Key player if finds best. ASTON REEVES (3) cannot be overlooked following a recent top-three finish at a big quote.

Good effort at double-figure odds last time when third (30.43) over 525m at The Meadows. Draws the cherry this time. Will need plenty of luck.
