Ballarat Race 5

Sportsbet (1-4 Wins) Ht1

Stake: $3,393

PAW MONET (1) was out of the placings latest but three back was a Grade 5 winner in quick time (25.46) at Warrnambool in a Grade 5. Key player on best and expected to bounce back. MY LONG BLACK (4) was a strong winner (25.27) from box 1 last time, scoring by 2 lengths at this track. Has a tricky draw to overcome and will need a clean break. Expected to feature again. GO PIKACHU (2) was a winner (25.54) at this track two back but out of the placings last time when 8th at Geelong. Should be about the mark. BAUXITE BLINDER (3) is in the mix despite finishing out of the placings here last start.

Was out of placings last time (25.41) at this track in a Grade 4/5, finishing fourth and beaten 3.5 lengths. Yet to win but has placed three times from this draw. Looks well placed and should feature.

Did a good job two starts back at this track to win by 1.4 lengths in 25.54, beating Elevate. Last start finished last over 460m at Geelong beaten 19 lengths (27.19) behind Go Go Evie in a Grade 5 on January 30. Forgive the latest run. Has solid claims on his best form.

Did a good job two starts back at Geelong to win by a neck in 22.65, beating Paw Prydi. Last start finished 5th in a Grade 5 on January 28 over 450m at this track behind Mother Georgia beaten 7 lengths (25.58). Is a danger.
