Ballarat Race 12

Eureka Concrete

Prize Money: $2,925

PAW BRODY (8) showed strong early pace and proved too slick around this track over 390m in 21.99, claiming a Grade 5 by 2 lengths. Has hit winning form and can go on with it. SHIMA STRIPE (1) has been hard to follow lately, running fourth (24.29) last time but prior to that ran very well when placed at this track. Key player on best and worth another try. PAW LINDEN (5) finished in the placings last time but could not have been more impressive before that in his handy 22.15 win at this track over 390m. Has the ability and looks a key chance. ROLLING EXPRESS (2) is not to be discarded.

Last start finished 3rd in a Grade 5 on March 3 over 410m at Horsham behind Lektra Roger beaten 3 lengths (23.45). Has been around the mark at his last couple and should make his presence felt.
