Ballarat Race 8

Eureka Concrete

Prize Money: $1,530

ANGRY CHIEF (1) turned spotting a big start finishing sixth (30.54) last time in a Grade 5 NP at Sandown. Form at the trip sound including 15 wins. Worth another chance. ROLLING EXPRESS (8) has missed the frame at his last couple but wasn't beaten far three back when second (19.85) at Healesville in a Grade 5. Can hit the frame this time. REBEL THINKER (2) was sent out big odds last time but scored an upset win in a Grade 5 at this track (22.57). Can go close again if runs up to latest figure. SUPER SEAFARER (6) warrants respect following a recent placing at big odds.

Strong performance to win by 2.5 lengths at this track over 390m (22.57) beating Cobra in Grade 5 on September 26. Makes plenty of appeal on the back of the latest win.

Missed the frame last time but finished in the minors two back when third (25.89) over 450m at this track. Aided by a low draw and capable of a better result.

Has been out of the money of late. Could only manage seventh last time out over 390m at Warrnambool. Not keen this time.

Showed good improvement when third behind Ollie Reiko at this track last start over 450m (26.20). Gets back so might need a bit of luck.

Latest effort finished last on October 2 over 350m at Healesville behind Greta's Gold beaten 5 lengths (20.24) in a Grade 5. Below best last time but looks well placed here. Deserves another chance.
