Ballarat Race 13

Prize Money: $1,530

UPTOWN SALLY (8) is progressing well and looks close to another win after hitting the frame from Box 3 last run (19.94) at Healesville. Has a solid record from this box including three wins and a minor placing. Good form should continue. INTEX BALE (3) was midfield throughout and finished there last time when 4th (22.74) at Warrnambool. Has a good record here at this journey. Shapes as one to consider. COUNTY TYRONE (1) won by a space two back then gave a start but got home into the frame when third at this track (22.67) last time. Winning chance. ARGYLE EMMA (2) placed last start and wasn't beaten far - in the mix again.

Nearing another win after her success on December 15 at this track over 390m. Last start was second over 350m in 19.94, behind Superfly Girl. Fought on last time. Right in the mix again.
