Ballarat Race 8

Prize Money: $1,740

TIGER ROCKS (1) jumped well and was in the mix early before fading out of it late when 5th over 595m at Sandown in Grade 4/5 company. Consistent performer from this draw with a win and 10 minor placings to his credit. Ready to return to form. PAW WYLDER (2) clocked a new course and distance PB last time, finishing a 2.75 lengths third behind Just Got Paid in 31.53. This tougher but expected to be in the finish. TIME PERPETUATED (3) wasn't far away at the finish when 5th and beaten only 5 lengths (26.12) at this track. Has a good winning strike rate at this journey. Should be about the money. LIGHTNING HUNTER (5) cannot be underestimated.

Didn't make the placings last time at this track (26.00) in a Grade 5, finishing a 4.5 lengths fifth. Still a maiden from the draw but has placed three times. Has ability and should be around the money.
