Ballarat Race 5

Southern Sheetmetal

Prize Money: $2,925

PAW BRODY (2) finished well back at Bendigo last time when a 4.5 lengths sixth (24.38) but scored five back at Warragul (22.57). Better than the latest run and deserves another chance. SHE REBEL (6) missed the frame last time at Warrnambool but the start prior rocketed around 390m at Warrnambool in 22.12. Must include on winning run two back. MYRNIONG STORM (4) has been hard to follow lately, running sixth (22.45) last time but prior to that ran very well when placed at Geelong. Well placed here and can atone this time. STARSHIP ATLAS (7) warrants respect following a recent placing from the same draw.

Missed the frame last start when seventh but had been in strong form prior to that, winning two on end before placing two back. Has ability but this tough and will need some luck to feature.

Didn't make the placings last time at Bendigo (24.38) in a Grade 5, finishing a 4.5 lengths sixth. Fairly consistent record from the draw including a win and two minors. Looks a leading chance.

Good performance after tracking the speed to win by a nose at Geelong over 400m (22.63) beating Paw Harkonnen in Grade 4/5 on February 27. Good win recently but others preferred.

Last start finished 7th over 390m at Warrnambool beaten 8 lengths (22.52) behind Living in a Mix 3/4 on February 19. Tipped to improve sharply. Rates highly on best form.

In the money last time at Warragul (22.84) in a Grade 5, finishing a 5.5 lengths third. Has one win and four placings from 10 starts from the draw. Looks a place chance at best.
