Ballarat (G) Race 8

Tudor Electrical

Stake: $1,879

SACRIFICIAL (1) has shown good improvement at her last two starts, breaking through last time at Bendigo over 500m. Makes plenty of appeal on the back of that last-start win. BLACK SPECTRE (5) has been a little hard to follow, finishing out of the placings latest but was in winning form two back scoring in a Grade 5 at The Meadows. Can find the frame this time. FREEMAN BALE (2) has a moderate overall strike-rate. Hit the board with a minor placing last time when third (26.38) at Geelong. Yet to win out of this box but has been in the placings three times from five starts. Hard to beat again. GRACELAND BOY (3) is a last-start placegetter worth considering.

Good effort to score just four days ago over 500m at Bendigo by a neck in a Grade 5. Has hit winning form and can measure up again.

Hit the frame latest (26.38) when third at Geelong in a Grade 5. Still a maiden from the draw but has placed three times. Has ability and looks a key chance.

Won two starts back when well in the market at The Meadows over 525m. Last start finished last on June 22 over 460m at Geelong behind Inter Sparkle beaten 5.5 lengths (26.54) in a Grade 5. Expected to bounce right back. Hard to beat.
