Ballarat Race 1

14 Races Tonight

Stake: $3,218

SICILY (4) stalked the lead from a middle draw and boxed on well to finish a neck back in second (22.77) at Geelong in a Grade 5 over 400m. Likely to feature again. INTERSTATE GIRL (1) failed to feature last start after settling off pace at Warragul, but prior to that won by 0.8 lengths at Geelong (22.55) beating If He Could in a Grade 5 on March 28. Comes out of a solid form race last start. Key player if finds best. ZIVA BALE (3) hit the ground running from out wide last start and crossed down to lead throughout (22.27) at this track in a Grade 5 over 390m. Recorded one of the quickest times on the card in scoring last start. Shapes as a top winning chance on latest effort. PAW JUDD (2) was a last-start winner at big odds. Don't underestimate.

Won two starts back over 400m at Geelong. Last start she finished 7th on April 4 over 400m at Warragul behind Abundant Lumens beaten 5.5 lengths (23.19) in a Grade 5. Draw likely to suit. Comes out of a hot form race. Worth following up.

Comments

Big odds last time but hit the ground running with a strong early split, giving a sight but fading only late to finish second (22.77) at Geelong over 400m. Has a strong 22.18 PB at this course and distance. Hard to beat.

Didn't make the placings last time at Healesville (19.80) in a Grade 5, finishing a 4.5 lengths eighth. Has performed well off the draw with a win and five places from seven starts. Tough field and looking to others this time.

Got back last start and could only manage fifth but before that won by 1.5 lengths at this track (22.17) beating Zipping Velma in a Grade 5 on March 10. Well placed and among the chances here.
