Ballarat Race 5

Prize Money: $2,925

ASTON SWING (6) filled the minor placings again last time when second (25.45) at this track, making it three straight minors on end. Has never missed the frame here at the trip from three starts. Rates highly here and will go close. BLACKPOOL IRIS (1) rocketed out of the boxes with a strong early sectional but gathered in and finished in the minors when second (22.83) at Geelong over 400m. Can feature again. ASTON FAME (3) finished sixth last time at this track but could not have been more impressive before that in her exceptional 22.54 win at Geelong over 400m. Top win two back and can measure up again. ASTON HARUTO (7) cannot be written off despite a miss here at his latest outing.

Comments

Hit the ground running last time with a strong early split and tried to lead throughout but had to settle for the minors when second (22.83) at Geelong over 400m. Capable of a strong show.

Needs to do more than recent efforts, the latest a eighth over 390m at this track. Other runners look much more appealing.
