Ballarat Race 13

Prize Money: $2,925

RING (5) is progressing well and looks close to another win after hitting the frame last run (22.89) at Warragul. Hard to go past form here, unbeaten in two starts. The form from his last run stacks up well. Racing well and deserves a win. PAW ZEVON (7) broke a four run winning streak last start when third and beaten 3 lengths (21.98) last time at this track. Has a strong record at this journey including 10 wins. The form out of the last run is proven to be strong. Will give a great sight again. SPRING ESPRESSO (2) is a fast beginner who has shown good improvement at her last two starts, rewarded with a win last time at Warrnambool over 390m. Recorded one of the quickest times on the card in scoring last start. Makes plenty of appeal if runs up to latest. SPACE INVADER (1) cannot be left out after placing at a big quote last start.

Form has been solid with minor placings at his last three starts. Last time out finished 2nd in a Grade 5 on August 26 over 390m at this track behind Prince Laroi beaten 2.75 lengths (22.25). Has ability and worth including.

After failing to finish two starts back he came out and won by half a length at Warrnambool (22.18) beating Paw Lampades in a Free For All on August 27. Likely to struggle this time.

Jumps from box 5 for the first time after placing latest at Warragul (22.89) in a R/A FIN. Key chance and should go close.

Showed brilliant pace early and gave a sight when a 3 length third over 390m this track in 21.98. Fought on last time. Right in the mix again.

Drawn the outside box and could be suited with some luck. Goes ok at this track and distance but recent form not good enough, tested under these conditions.
