Ballarat Race 13

Prize Money: $2,925

WHIRLER (7) was in the placings last time but shapes well for this on her excellent win the start prior, getting around Bendigo over 425m in 23.83. Smart win two back and looks a key chance here. ROVANIEMI (3) showed good early burn but run over late to finish 6th at Warrnambool in Grade 5 company. In the mix. BLUE SKY TOKYO (8) missed the frame latest (23.09) when seventh over 400m at Geelong in a Grade 4. Has already won two times from this draw. With even luck and a clean start can sneak into the finish. OHTANI FORCE (2) missed the frame but ran a slick fifth in 16.81 last time in a hot race. Worth including.

Could manage only fifth last time but turned heads the start prior when he clocked a slick 22.21 over 390m finishing third at this track. Can slot into the minors again.
