Ballarat Race 8

Life Members Trophy (250+Rank) Ht4

Stake: $1,775

BLANKET GAME (1) missed the frame latest (30.75) when sixth over 525m at The Meadows in a Grade 5 H. Already a winner from this draw. Has the ability and looks a key chance here. BLACK TYCOON (8) missed the frame last time when fourth (25.80) at Shepparton but prior to that had four placings in a row. Remains without a win from the draw but has been in the placings four times from five attempts. Must be included in calculations. MISS MY BROTHER (2) has mixed form a little and missed the frame the last two but was a T3 RSTW winner three back (22.65) at Warragul over 400m. Well placed here and can atone this time. CORNHILL HUSTLER (4) is in form and must include among the chances.

Won two starts back over 450m at Warrnambool. Last start he finished 6th over 525m at The Meadows beaten 5.5 lengths (30.75) behind Tony in a Grade 5 H on February 18. Draw likely to suit. Capable of a strong show.

Showed strong early pace and stuck on well despite finishing out of the placings when fourth over 400m Warragul in 22.67. Has ability and worth including.

Got back last start and could only manage eighth but before that won easily by 4.5 lengths at this track (22.12) beating Ice Sculptress in a Grade 5 on February 16. Failed to threaten last start and looks tested again.

Good effort to win last start by 1.3 lengths over 425m at Bendigo in a handy (24.26), beating Lainey Jane. Will find this a bit tougher, solid win last time out but this looks tough.

Was out of placings last time (25.80) at Shepparton in a Grade 5, finishing fourth and beaten 5.5 lengths. Yet to win but has placed four times from this draw. Looks suited and should go close.
