Ballarat Race 8

Easy Waste Pace

Prize Money: $7,000

FIRE MARSHALL (4) is a progressive colt who made it two from two this time in when he worked but dug deep to get home narrowly at Bendigo. Draws lower and has upside so can deliver again. MISTER AMERICANO (6) resumes from a spell of four-and-a-half months after performing well in a two-start campaign in Brisbane for a win and a second in the APG Brisbane Sales Graduate Final. Readied with two trial placings and is proven fresh. EYENEEDTHAT (5) took his record at this circuit to two from three when he worked from the back row before digging deep for a resuming win. MAXY CAN DANCE (3) won from the back row two back before placing from wider last time. Draws for a good showing.

Resuming after a spell of four-and-a-half months. Finished off last campaign when well beaten into second behind Fire And Passion at Albion Park over 1660m in a 2yo No NR CG on June 21 at $8.50. Previous preparation first-up won by a nose when driven back in the field, (Fr3) held up early, at Albion Park (2:00.80) beating King Bling in 2yo No NR CG on June 13 at $2.50. Proven fresh and should be ready off two nice trials.
