Ballarat Race 9

Sportsbet Ht3 (1-4 Wins)

Prize Money: $2,925

LEON'S ENTITY (1) turned in a plain performance last time when fifth at The Meadows over 525m behind Uriah Bale (30.73) in a R/A FIN. Has winning claims on his best figures. SUNSET WISP (2) has a strong overall record having two wins and four places from eight starts but was out of the money last time when fifth (29.98) over 515m at Sandown. Performs well off this draw. Has a good overall strike-rate and can find the frame here. PAW PHELPS (7) produced a decent 25.80 when filling a minor placing over 460m at Geelong last start. Expecting another bold showing. UP HILL SHILOH (6) was well fancied last time on the strength of her recent form but could only manage third (30.05) at Sandown. Well placed and gets her chance.

Backs up after winning easily by 6 lengths at Horsham (23.46) beating Veluza Bale in a Grade 5 on December 7 four days ago. Likely to find this a lot tougher and he needs to find another gear.

Narrowly beaten last time at Geelong when only half a length from the winner but did record a fast 25.80 over the 460m journey. Looms as the one to beat this time.
