Ballarat Race 13

Prize Money: $1,530

ZOOM BOOM (4) had been in super honest form hitting the frame two times on end before finishing fourth (22.93) at this track last time. Can discover winning form. MR. OLAF (2) box seated before sticking on well to finish 9 lengths away in third (23.05) at this track in a Rank Limit - Grade 5 over 390m. The form from his last run is stacking up nicely. Overdue and expected to feature again. ASCEND IGLOO (8) should enjoy clear running from the outside box. Below best latest at Bendigo (24.64) when 8th and beaten 14 lengths. Strike rate this course and distance strong having won one of one tries. Yet to win out of this box but has been in the placings three times from five starts. Expected to feature in the finish. KEY BEGONIA (1) should bounce back after an unplaced effort here recently.
