Ballarat Race 4

Southern Sheetmetal

Stake: $1,683

CHEEKY DEED (3) has a strong record this track and trip including two wins from four starts. Scored by 1.5 lengths last time (22.52) in a T3 Grade 7 over 390m at this track. Appeals as a leading chance in this. BLANK SLATE (2) is an honest type who is new here. Last start winner off a middle draw scoring by 2.5 lengths at Geelong over 400m (23.18). Comes through a solid form race last start. Can make it back-to-back wins. LISBURN (1) doesn't win out of turn but recent form sound. Finished in the minors last time when third (24.37) at Bendigo making it back to back placings. Will give a great sight again. ASTON VERGARA (5) must be included in main hopes on latest effort.

Latest effort finished 3rd over 425m at Bendigo beaten 4.5 lengths (24.37) behind Sir Whip in a Grade 6 on April 2. Looks well placed and should prove hard to beat.

Consistent performer who is new here. Nice win last start by 2.5 lengths at Geelong (23.18) beating Coco Tommy in a T3 RSTW on March 25. Returned in great order and can make it two on the bounce.

Was out of placings last time (24.06) at Horsham in a Mix 6/7, finishing seventh and beaten 11 lengths. Still a maiden from the draw but has placed two times. Has ability but looking elsewhere this time.

Was a winner three back at Healesville then finished in the minors before missing the frame last time when fourth (19.90) at Healesville. Tough line-up and place prospects appear best.

Placed last time (23.18) at Geelong in a Grade 6, finishing second and beaten 2 lengths. Goes well out of this box with a win and two minors. With even luck and a clean start should be thereabouts.

Won two starts back at Bendigo over 425m in 24.65. Couldn't repeat the feat last time out when fourth over 400m at Geelong at Grade 6 level. Not suited by wide draw, can't make much of a case this time.
