Ballarat Race 6

Ballarat Tier 3 Cup Final

Prize Money: $5,875

BROKEN HALO (7) failed to come into contention last start after settling off pace at The Meadows, but prior to that won easily by 8 lengths at this track (30.78) beating Mepunga Velvet in a T3 RSTW on August 1. The form out of his last race has been franked. Has ability and is a key runner. ROCKY SUPERSTAR (5) is on a hot streak recording a 22.62 win over 400m at Geelong last start following on from a sharp 31.02 victory at this track over 545m the start prior. In form and looks a leading player again. SHE'S SALTY (1) hit the ground running to win over the 545m at this track two runs back then settled forward again when finishing third at Healesville last start. The form from her last run is stacking up nicely. Bold showing expected. KEEN ON KEV (2) profiles nicely over this trip.

Comments

Big odds last time but gave a huge sight after a fast early split, grabbed late but holding on to a placing when a 1.3 lengths third (19.63) over 350m at Healesville. Comes through a solid form race. Expected to feature.

Did a good job two starts back at Bendigo to win by 1.3 lengths in 28.30, beating Moraine Piper. Last start finished 5th on August 12 over 525m at The Meadows behind Tommy Marra beaten 7 lengths (30.92) in a Grade 5. Not keen, needs to lift.

Missed the frame last start when fourth and beaten 8 lengths at Sandown. Form solid prior to that including a win at this track three back. Better than last run and looks an each way chance.

Got back last start and could only manage sixth but before that won comfortably by 3.5 lengths at this track (31.29) beating Keen On Kev in a Grade 5 on August 1. Can't recommend against this lot.
